This snippet creates an embedded video or 360 image in your page’s main content area, additional content area, or right sidebar. To include a video at the very top of the page (known as the mediazone or hero area), follow the instructions for MultiEdit Content.
The size of the video/image will automatically adjust based on the location you insert it. A title and description can be included beneath it.
This is an example of how you can include an image at the top of your blog post to simulate the banner image at the top of a CMS webpage. Make sure your image is horizontally oriented and at least 1024 px wide. When inserting the image into your post, select the Large version and do not include a caption.
Assets are pieces of content that are saved in a central location that can be used on multiple pages or on multiple sites. They should be used when you have identical bits of content on more than one page. If the asset content is changed, that change is applied to all pages using it. You do not have to try and find all the pages with certain content or risk missing a page and having conflicting/different information across your website.
Creating faculty/staff listings involves a few steps. First, you must create a Personnel Information for each person. If you are including an employee who is already listed in another department, you will still create the page, but you will pull in content from the other listing. Once that is created you will be able to add people to the listing pages.
The Alumni Profile item is used to create individual people that can appear on the Alumni Profiles page, PCA listings, or in department Academies. The original profile content should live on the /alumni website and other departments should pull in the existing content from there.

Please note that calendar admins have access to additional fields that do not exist on the public event submission webpage and skip the approval queue.
If you are a calendar admin, please use the event submission form available through your Admin login, as specified above. If you do not have admin access, but often add events for your department, please request access by sending your name, user ID, and department(s) to webmaster@mtu.edu.
The following is a step-by-step guide for event admins filling out event information through the admin dashboard. It is important to use the fields correctly as there is additional code set up to provide specific information to Google in order to display events in search results.
Locations from the campus map can be embedded onto a webpage, similar to Google Maps, using static maps. You can also link to a specific location from your webpage. Using the campus map, rather than a generic Google Map can provide the user with more photos and details about the location, while still including useful features such as driving directions.
This snippet is no longer available. Instead, you can use the Image with Caption snippet (even if you don’t have a caption!) or link text directly to the image.
