About
The enhanced card widget is great for users who need a way to put reusable content into cards to use on various pages or those who would like a set of cards with a cohesive look regardless of content. A deck of cards using the enhanced card widget allows users to display images, videos and links. Each card by design will have the same length and width regardless of the individual content within each card.
Enhanced cards have many options to customize the design. There is flexibility around how cards are displayed based on the size of each card, please come to open lab to discuss your options!
NOTE: This is a reusable content type widget, which means it is dependent
upon content you've first created as a content type from the dashboard menu.
