Layout

This drop-down lets you choose between one CTA that stretches the full width or two that sit side-by-side.

Link Type

There are 2 options for link type:

  • Default - Headline text is linked
  • Dual CTA - Headline is not linked but up to two links are displayed below

Register Style

This option displays an alternate style mainly used for Registration promotions.

No Border

This style renders the CTA without a border, making it look better when placed inside an Accordion.

Layout Options

Default (full width stacked)

Here's how a Call-to-Action renders in full width:

Full width Call-to-Action with "Location" icon and linked headline.

Side-by-side (Two items)

Here is how Side-by-side renders. Note that when choosing this option, you must fill out additional fields in the "Box 2 Content" tab to render the second box.

This one has the "Preferences" icon and local link type.
This one has the "Bank" icon and external link type.

Link Types

Call-to-Action boxes can have two different "Link Types":

  1. Default (linked headline text)
  2. Dual CTA (two links after body)

Default Link Type

Default link type makes the headline the link.

Dual CTA Link Type

For this option do not fill out Box 1 Headline Link URL or Box 1 Headline Link Title as they are ignored when rendering.

The fields in the section labeled Box 1 CTA Links (dual-cta option only) need to be filled out to create the link or links for this style. You do not need to fill out  CTA 2 link information if both aren't needed.

Dual CTA Link Type
Dual CTA link type adds two text links below the body text.

Within the Box 1 CTA Links (dual-cta option only) section are fields related to rendering the extra links.

CTA X New Tab

This option when set to Yes will open a new tab or window (the bahavior is based on the client browser settings) when the link is clicked.

CTA X Link Icon

This renders either a right facing carat to indicate a local link or a new window icon indicating that the link goes to another site. See examples in the CTA above.

Register Style

The Register Style checkbox drastically alters the design of the Call-to-Action and should be used for promoting registration. This can also be used in the sidebar.

No Border

This has no component border but does have a linked headline.
