Homepage Texts
Homepage Texts are featured on the overview page for your place. This lets you add longer content than summaries or captions. To add a homepage text, you'll first work in Mandala Texts:
- Create your content in Mandala Texts: use this guide for help. You can also use an existing Mandala Text.
- Tag your text with the subject: use this guide for help. For example, if I wanted the text to appear on the Lhasa overview page, I would tag it with Lhasa.
- Return to the Places editorial interface to add your Homepage Text
In the Homepage Texts section:
- Click New Homepage Text
- Choose your text
- If you don't see the text, make sure you tagged it with the appropriate place (see above)
- Choose the language of the text
- Click Create
