One of the things that I needed for my Gain Grow Retain community was an easier way to add images and graphics, especially when it came to ads on the landing page.
Being able to utilize categories along with the html widget allowed me to simply paste them into place was a huge time-saver as my sponsor ads were updated weekly.
Steps to Replicate
- I created a category that was only visible to Administrators that I named Graphic Storage.
- This is a Discussion category with custom permissions.
- Each graphic has it’s own discussion post with a title that makes it easy for me to know which one I need at a glance (I used a side bar ad and a large banner ad for each week).
