Text
Text widgets are the most fundamental part of the UMD Terp templates, and can be found in a number of the other widgets listed below. The UMD Terp Person, UMD Terp Article, UMD Terp Event, and UMD Terp Basic Page layouts include this section by default as a “bio” or “body” text area at the top of the layout.
Text - 2 Columns and 3 Columns
Displays formatted text in a 2 or 3 column layout. There are separate widgets for 2 or 3 column layouts. These two widgets offer the same formatting options as the standard text widget, but allow content editors to layout a page with multiple columns. On mobile, these columns will stack one above the other.
Accordion
Accordion widgets provide the ability to share a large amount of content in a more digestible way. Frequently Asked Questions areas are an ideal use case for an Accordion widget.
Tabs
To show a limited amount of related information that is best seen side-by-side, e.g. related content for students, parents and alumni.
Blockquote
The Blockquotes section is meant for featuring quotes, comments, or messages from experts and other persons of note. A brief quote can provide visual interest and offset larger text blocks.
Stat Group
Show 1-3 numbers with descriptive text underneath, centered on the page. Small images or icons are optional. Highlight compelling statistics or other number-based facts. The term “stat” is short for “statistic”.
Table
Tables are similar to spreadsheets; Use tables for data only. Tables aren’t meant to make page layouts, use other widgets to layout content, such as: text, 2 or 3 columns, Image with Text, or even tabs and accordion widgets.
