6.15 Links - Featured or Related
The 'Links - Featured or Related' block provides a simple method to display links in a visually interesting manner.
Featured Links are limited to a fixed number of links, as controlled by University Relations. We are keeping the number of links that can be displayed in this style to a minimum as to not dilute their effect. The options can be seen below.
Related links give the site editor much more flexibility. They can be created to link to anywhere - even off site. They should not be overused though, or our visitors will begin to ignore them. Related links look very nice in a column and in a page section with multiple columns.
A Reminder:
Never use 'Click Here' in these link areas, or anywhere.
