There are two types of links in the left navigation on your site.听听

  1. Homepage links: These are the links that you see when you go to a main landing page. These are driven by categories and can only be added, removed, or edited by the web services team.
  2. Document page links: These are the听indented links that听appear when you click on a main link.听
  3. Left nav

Supplements allow you to add navigational elements to your pages, as well as elements such as accordions, which are typically only available on a Homepage.听听You can add supplements to Homepages AND Document pages.

The links that say "adding" a supplement are just that, how to add them.听 The other links are to examples of how the specific supplement is used. We will provide directions on how to add them at a later date.

Image Sizing

When placing images on the left or right of a page, ensure they are sized between 450-500 pixels wide. This size will adjust responsively based on the user's device. Maintain a resolution of 72 dpi, avoiding the default 300 dpi common in camera or phone images.

Image Preparation Tools

For image preparation, Adobe Photoshop is recommended. Alternatively, you can utilize , a free online tool.

Placing Images on a Page

  1. Adding an Image to the Homepage:

Image Widgets

  • Image Widget: Add images from the library or upload your own after resizing. This widget supports captions and links.
  • Image Hover Link: Ideal for 400x400-pixel images, offers interactive hover effects.
  • Image Popup/Zoom: Useful for displaying detailed images without cluttering the page. Mouse over to expand to full size. No linking option available.听See this page for an example of how to use an image popup/zoom widget

Alignment Options

In content or document widgets, images can be aligned left, right, inline, or center. Left and right alignments maintain a 30% width, while inline or center alignments adjust the size accordingly. Experiment with these options to optimize your layout.

You might encounter formatting issues while working on your content. Here are some solutions:

  1. Double Spaced Lines: If you want a single spaced line instead of double spacing, press Shift+Enter at the end of the line.

  2. Pixelated Photos: If your photo appears pixelated, it's likely too small and is being enlarged to fill 30% of the page. Resize the original image to 450 pixels wide to resolve this issue. Never enlarge a small photo.

  3. Text Display Discrepancies:

    • Copying and pasting directly from Word may retain Word formatting in your code. Use Shift+Ctrl+V in Jadu to paste and remove formatting.
    • Avoid selecting "address" from the format dropdown in the Jadu editor, as it alters font size and appearance, which we don't use in our content.
