Introduction: Article Pages
Article Pages populate your Newsroom and can be displayed on the Homepage, Custom Pages, and Archive Pages. These pages are used for publishing time-sensitive content, such as press releases, news articles, blog posts, investor updates, or statements. By default, Articles include a publication date and can appear in various Newsroom Modules, including the News Carousel, Featured Article, Headlines, and Search. Implementing a tag structure ensures that articles are organized correctly within your Newsroom making them easier to find for visitors.
Step 1: Add Page
Navigate to Newsroom in the top navigation bar and select Pages from the dropdown.
Click Add Page in the top left corner to open the Add Page form. The page type defaults to Article. You can also create an article based on a template using the Based on Article or Template option. Fill out the relevant fields in the form, the Page Name is mandatory. Click Save to proceed
Go to Page Settings, Template for details.
Step 2: Add Page Text, Inline Images, and Page Details
Within the Article Page Text section, you can add content to the following fields:
- Title & Subtitle: The Title field defaults to the Page Name but can be edited. You can also add a Meta Title for SEO purposes.
- Summary
- Excerpt: This field does not appear in the article but can be used as an alternative to the Headlines Preview text.
- Textblock: Divide the main body into multiple text blocks via the Add additional textblock button (A). This allows you to insert other modules (e.g., images, videos) in the layout of the page. Per Textblock an Inline Image (B) can be added by clicking the button at the top of each block.
- Boilerplate: Add evergreen information to support the article (e.g. About us).
- Page Details: Upload a Featured Image to enhance the article’s preview across Newsroom modules and search results. Add a Publish City, adjust the URL Slug (the unique link to the Page), and add the correct Tags to ensure the article is categorised properly within the Newsroom.
Click Save before navigating away to avoid losing changes.

Step 3: Preview Page
Once the article is saved, you can preview it at any time by clicking Preview Page in the left menu. This allows you to review the formatting and layout before publishing.
Step 4: Add Contact Information, Multimedia and other enrichments to the Article
