Adding a full-width image

Occasionally you might want to publish a full-width image

Assuming you have used the two-column layout, on rare occasions you might want to publish a full-width image. If so, this should only be published after a read more link.

This is because anything after the read more is not included in the email that is sent out – so it won’t mess up the email layout.

Adding a read more link under columns

A read more link should never be placed inside a column but on its own line.

Here’s how to add the read more link under the two columns…

Click the Code tab

Go to the end of the code where you see the last </div> and on a new line type <p> (new paragraph)

This will automatically add a closing </p> (end paragraph)

Now click back on the Editor tab

Scroll to the foot of the two columns and place your cursor on the new blank line under them

Place the read more link there.  (Click the read more icon

in the toolbar along the top)

You can now place your cursor after the read more link to place a full width image.

How to add a full-width image

Now click the Insert/Edit Image button

(in the toolbar along the top)

Again, It’s best to keep organised and place images in a folder structure so for News you should select the news folder like this…

Then create a New Folder using this icon

on the right and name it yy-mm-dd - so for 3 Oct 2022 it would be 22-10-03

like this...

then click the Create button

Now click on the new folder you have just created...

This is where you are going to upload one or more images for your article.

Click the Upload

button (on the right)

Now you have the option to either drag and drop your image file(s) over this space...

or click the

button and navigate to the location of your image on your computer.

Select your image(s) and then

You should see you selected image(s) listed, ready to upload

Tick the Resize checkbox and then only the 1000 box on the right of the row (you will need to untick the 580)

Now click the

button

Your newly uploaded image(s) should be listed in bold

Click on the image you wish to insert and it will create the URL for the image e.g.

It may suggest an Alternative Text based on the EXIF information of your file. If you need to, edit this – it should be a short description of the image (in a proper sentence) and will be used for the caption.

Tip: For accessibility you should also copy the image description in Alternative Text to the Title field

Click on the Advanced tab

Now click the

button to insert the image

Creating a Caption

As a finishing touch you can create a caption. This will put a ready-styled frame around the image with a caption based on your Alternative Text.  Here's how:

With the image selected, click the Insert/Edit Image button

Then click

And finally click the

button to save and close the article
