Homepage

Body

The academic site homepage looks different from the administrative site homepage and has a handful of features available only in this template type.

Banner

There are four different banner display options for academic site homepages. These options are indicated by radio buttons in Cascade:

  • Short with no content slider
  • Short with photos content slider
  • Short with news content slider
  • Large

In addition to these display options, you can also select the color of the header.
