Feature Several Grinnellians' Stories in a Small Space
Carousel: Stories features big photos and large arrows and a series of dots below the carousel tells users you have more them to see. If you want to feature only a single story, consider using Story: Feature instead.
Carousel: Stories can be added standard or full width but looks best full width.
Carousels are best for items users might want to browse if they have time. Don't use carousels for critical information since many users won't click through them.
Before You Begin
Add every Story first. Add nice images for the best effect. Once done, you can add the carousel to your webpage.
Carousel: Stories Options
Background Color defaults to “Light (white).”
Select “Dark (gray)” to add a slight gray tint behind the entire component.
The header style defaults to visually normal, but you can also choose to have it display much smaller.
The section header is not required. It will display above the carousel if added.
Adding Stories
Include at least one Story; preferably more.
-
Click Embed to open the Embed dialog box.
- Scroll through the list to find the Story(s) you want.
-
Check the box to the left of a Story to select it. You can select more than one story on the page.
- Click Embed at the bottom of the box to add your Story(s) to the carousel.
- Repeat these steps until you've selected all the stories you want in the carousel (5 maximum).
Note: Move between pages using the pagination buttons at the bottom of the dialog box. When you switch pages, you'll lose any selection you made on the earlier page, so Embed any selected Story before moving to another page.
Rearranging Stories
If you want to rearrange a Story once it's added, hover over one until you see a four-directional arrow. Click and drag to a new spot in the order.
Editing Stories
Click Edit beneath a Story to edit it directly from the component. See Story Content Type for information about the fields.
Removing Stories
If you want to remove a story, click Remove beneath it.

Whether I was devouring brisket or Egusi, I obtained knowledge through debates with my sisters, my moral compass through lessons from my parents, and wisdom by listening to elders who spoke at the table.
I want to meet people from other places who can help me reach my goals and who I can help to reach theirs.
