Editing the homepage
The homepage isn't a page in Pages — it's controlled by a combination of the Home global (under Homepage in the left-hand menu) and three separate card collections: A- Features, B- Features and C- Features. Changes to any of these go live immediately; there's no draft or preview step.
Home — the section-by-section settings
Home is organised into tabs, one per homepage section:
| Tab | What it controls |
|---|---|
| A-Features | How many A-Features to display (see below); leave the limit blank for no cap |
| Featured Events | A toggle to show/hide this section, a title, how many events (max 3) and how many days ahead to look, and a "View Calendar" link |
| B-Features | How many B-Features to display (default 5) |
| Housing Reports | A toggle, title, subtitle, optional note, up to 2 rows of statistics (each row a title plus a set of number/label pairs, optionally showing a previous period for comparison), and a link |
| Upcoming Events | Title, how many events and how many days ahead, event-type filters and labels for the "Everything / Events / Classes" tabs, tab labels for List/Calendar views, and a "View All" link |
| Recent News | Title, how many articles (default 4), and a "View All News" link |
| Professional Development | A toggle, title and text, an image, and up to 5 "Explore Also" links |
| Promo | Title, background image or video, subtitle, text, and up to 2 buttons |
| Links | A "Get Involved" style block: title, text, and up to 5 items, each with a link, an optional image and an optional title |
| FAQ | A toggle, title, and up to 6 FAQ items pulled from the shared FAQ list |
A-Features and B-Features — the cards themselves
The Home tabs above only control how many cards show and whether a section is on — the cards themselves live in their own collections under Homepage in the left-hand menu:
- A- Features — title, subtitle, a background image (or video), up to 2 links, and a Sort number that controls display order (lower numbers first). This is the large featured carousel at the top of the homepage.
- B- Features — title, subtitle, an image, a link, and the same kind of Sort number. These show as a grid of cards further down the page.
To reorder either one, open each card and change its Sort number — there's no drag-and-drop reordering screen, so change the numbers directly.
C- Features — not currently used
C- Features also appears in the left-hand menu, with the same fields as B-Features. It doesn't currently appear anywhere on the live website — editing it has no visible effect. Don't spend time populating it until that's confirmed with support.
