Looking into filled classroom from hallway, students focused on presenter at a dry erase board — Hero Images on article pages appear at the top of the article under the title. This image can be added by using options for uploading a new image, or from the site's media library, so you can include an image that was previously uploaded. Descriptive "alt-text" is required on each image during the upload process, and this Image caption on is great for giving credit to the source, and/or providing descriptive context to an image

The body text of an Article Page supports all the same formatting options available in a Text widgdets on other pages including Normal text, Headings 2 through 6, Links, Bold, Italics, Numbered lists, Bulleted lists, Blockquotes, and Images.

Article Categories

The last item that sets Article pages apart from other pages is the categories section at the bottom of each article page, and set from the admin panel. Content creators for sites can organize articles by any system they see fit. This organization can be by type (blog, news, statement), audience (staff, students, faculty, alumni) or any number of other tags.
