Customize a group page

You can customize your group page by creating a group carousel.

Create a group carousel

A carousel is a slideshow that allows you to highlight multiple training content for learners on group pages. Learners can navigate the carousel by clicking the arrows next to each slide or waiting until the carousel switches to the following slide automatically.

To create a carousel, add carousel slides to your group page.

Add a carousel slide

The following optional elements compose a carousel slide:

• An image
• A title
• A description
• A link to internal or external content
• A button (Only on the postcard layout)

To add a carousel slide:

1. In the left sidebar, click on a group.
2. At the top right of the main section, click Page Layout.
3. In the Page layout panel, select Carousel. 
4. Click ADD SLIDE.
5. Click to add an image.
   The Select an image dialog box opens. 
6. Import or Reuse an image. For more details on the recommended image dimensions and format, see Carousel image recommendations.
7. Select the Layout:
   • The poster layout displays a full image slide with the text on top of the image. This layout is selected by default.
   • The postcard layout displays the image on the left side of the slide and the accompanying text on the right of the slide.
8. Enter a Title and a Description.
9. If you selected the postcard layout, enter the Button text. If you do not add a button text, the slide won’t display any button.

    • If you add a link to the poster layout, the learner can click anywhere on the slide to be redirected to the specified URL.
    • If you add a link to the postcard layout, the learner can click on the image and the button to be redirected to the specified URL.

    The group page displays the carousel slide.

Carousel image recommendations

Format

Carousel images can be in JPEG, PNG, or GIF format.

Image dimensions

We recommend the following image dimensions for each layout:

•  Poster layout: 1600x600 pixels
•  Postcard layout: 800x600 pixels

Smaller images may appear blurry or pixelated. Bigger images may be cropped.

No matter which image size you use, try to keep the main focus of the image near the center, with ample space above, below, and to the sides of that focus, whenever possible.

Additional information

• We recommend using an image that does not contain any text to avoid an overlap between your visuals and the slide description.
• In the poster layout, the image is darkened with a dark gradient with the following CSS characteristics:

  linear-gradient(rgba(255, 255, 255, 0), rgb(24, 25, 29))
