| Name | Type | Description |

The following sections detail what goes in to each specific article pattern.
At least one paragraph.
(See page heading component and context tab for config structure)
Must have at least one paragraph.
Other information as per the default options above
The news supplement allows content authors to tag related news stories to the original news article.
Highlight to the user additional news stories relevant to the subject matter. This saves them from having to search for related information and showcases the depth of knowledge of the subject matter within the University.
There is no limit to the number of cards, although we recommend a maximum of 3 cards within this pattern.
Cards can be passed through the configuration:
'widgets': [
{
'type': 'news-events',
'title': 'Related news',
'lead': '<p>This News and Events widget contains 8 cards. However, at certain screen sizes it will only display the first 6</p>',
'link': {
'url': '/news',
'text': 'View all news',
},
'cards': {
'image_layout': true,
'items': [
{
'image': {
'src': '/placeholders/banner/banner-01.jpg',
'alt': 'A super informative description'
},
'url': '#',
'title': 'Leeds signs up to tackle waste in fashion',
'date': '2021-05-07'
},
...
]
}
},
](See page heading component and context tab for config structure)
Further event information eg:
Must have at least one paragraph.
Other information as per the default options above
The events supplement allows content authors to promote additional upcoming events.
Highlight to the user additional upcoming events relevant to the subject matter. This saves them from having to search and showcases events within the University
Events are in chronological order from left to right, with the latest event shown first. There is no limit to the number of additional events that can be shown, although we recommend a maximum of 3 events within this pattern.
Events can be passed through the configuration:
'widgets': [
{
'type': 'events',
'title': 'Related events',
'link': {
'url': '/all-events-link',
'text': 'View all events',
},
'events': [
{
"title": "Creating climate-resilient agri-food systems in sub-Saharan Africa",
"link": "/some-event-link-6",
"start": "2022-07-25 11:00",
"end": "2022-08-25 16:30"
},
...
]
},
]The article highlight component appears on the left hand side of the blog pattern (above related content) for desktop views. When the view is reduced <1024 px, it is then required to appear at the end of the article main content and above any related content items.
In order to achieve this a specific class is added to the uol-article-highlight component containing class. This class is called ‘uol-content-switch-from-side-to-main’.
Javascript is utilised to move this element to the correct position dependent upon screen size.
Any other elements which are to be added and repositioned above need to have the same class added to their top level container.
The person insight variant of the article pattern follows a similar structure to other particle patterns, although mark up is slightly different - specifically the @uol-info-list is placed within the header (other patterns include this with the article content) in order to align content with designs.
@uol-profile-image - compulsory image with square dimensions at least 300px. Must be headshot of person. Note this image is cropped to a circle when choosing your square image.
@uol-info-list
For this pattern the info list component can contain any number of items (eg. course, year of graduation, nationality) but advised to be no more than four items.
@uol-page-heading - required. Including person name and person job title
@uol-profile-image - optional image with square dimensions at least 350px. Must be headshot of person. Note this image is cropped to a circle when choosing your square image.
@uol-info-list - facts about the person. Examples: areas of expertise, email address, location and websites.
@uol-article-section - sections relating to the user. This pattern differs from other article patterns, in that the main body of text is split up into different sections (section headings displayed alongside sections in this pattern). Each section has one title (H2). Other content can appear within these sections as per default content, note that inner content headings must start at H3 level.
Headings H3 - 6
Paragraph
Images - single and multiple
Videos - single and multiple

Lists (ordered and unordered)

<h2>Why did you choose to study your degree at the University of Leeds?</h2>
<p>Leeds is the place to be. I had heard from friends who had studied here on a year abroad that Leeds was a wicked student city with a vibrant lifestyle and after a visit on one the open days when I saw first-hand campus life and looked around the Faculty of Design Systems I just wanted to be part of it. Coming from a smaller town in rural France I wanted to experience university in a European city and Leeds is perfect, everything is centralised with great student living areas and there are so much freedom and accessibility. The University of Leeds is one of the leading Design Systems institutions in the world and I knew I had to be here in order to push the best I could and set myself up for a successful career in the design industry.</p>

<h2>What do you specialise in? What exciting things are you working on at the moment?</h2>
<p>I am now tailoring my training towards design systems, service design and user experience as this is a field I am keen to explore and probably go into in the future. I do however have a high interest in front end development and recently have been elected as master front-end developer wizard managing the University's design system website next year which I am super psyched about.</p>
<p>I am also part of a creative family of 3 called ‘The 3 Racoons’ who I met whilst here at Leeds. We specialise in design and front end development. Our work includes working with brands such as Lucy and YAK, Mutts and hounds, Sonny banks mills, Ward Brewarys and a range of other independent artists and brands that we're all enthusiastic about. The aim is to expand our client base and build on our portfolios whilst still studying, I am super excited for what the future holds.</p>
<h2>How does the University develop your practice?</h2>
<p>I have learnt more in the last four months than learnt in a year on my foundation course, more than I could have possibly believed, and I intend to continue this way. I am constantly pushed to question and advance my designs to help develop and push boundaries in my decision-making and critical analysis. Daily critiques and peer feedback helps me and my work grow, taking it in new directions I never contemplated and knew about. I think the most important thing for me is being in a creative environment where I am surrounded by like-minded people who want to exceed themselves and join a community where striving for perfection is the purpose.</p>,

What exciting things are you working on at the moment?</h2>\n\n <p>I am now tailoring my training towards design systems, service design and user experience as this is a field I am keen to explore and probably go into in the future. I do however have a high interest in front end development and recently have been elected as master front-end developer wizard managing the University's design system website next year which I am super psyched about.</p>\n\n <p>I am also part of a creative family of 3 called ‘The 3 Racoons’ who I met whilst here at Leeds. We specialise in design and front end development. Our work includes working with brands such as Lucy and YAK, Mutts and hounds, Sonny banks mills, Ward Brewarys and a range of other independent artists and brands that we're all enthusiastic about. The aim is to expand our client base and build on our portfolios whilst still studying, I am super excited for what the future holds.</p>\n\n <h2>How does the University develop your practice?</h2>\n\n <p>I have learnt more in the last four months than learnt in a year on my foundation course, more than I could have possibly believed, and I intend to continue this way. I am constantly pushed to question and advance my designs to help develop and push boundaries in my decision-making and critical analysis. Daily critiques and peer feedback helps me and my work grow, taking it in new directions I never contemplated and knew about. I think the most important thing for me is being in a creative environment where I am surrounded by like-minded people who want to exceed themselves and join a community where striving for perfection is the purpose.</p>,\n "
