Homepage widgets
Customize the look and feel of your Brand Connect homepage to match your organization. Using widgets, you can add elements such as folders and image sliders. If your organization has multiple Brand Connects, each has its own homepage, which you can give distinct looks.
These widgets are available:
A. Carousel—Display multiple assets in an image slider. You can add descriptions to each asset. Click the Add icon to select images to display in the carousel.
B. Folder—Display a folder that contains selected assets. Click the Add icon to open the Asset Chooser so you can select a folder. Assets in the folder are visible to Brand Connect users but can only be downloaded by those with permission.
C. Lightbox—Display an existing Lightbox. The assets in the Lightbox will be visible to Brand Connect users but can only be downloaded by those with permission.
D. Brand Guidelines—Display the Brand Guidelines on the homepage instead of/in addition to in the top navigation bar.
E. Description—Use to display short pieces of text.
F. Filled Description—Enter a text copy block to display on a gray background…
G. HTML—Use HTML and CSS to create custom content. For example, you could embed a link to a video. There are some HTML tags to avoid.
Add a search bar
If you design a custom homepage for your organization’s Brand Connect, users have to click into the Assets area to run a search.
But system administrators can create a search bar using the HTML widget and this HTML tag:
<webdambp.headersearch></webdambp.headersearch>
