Third Column (Section Callouts)
Section callouts appear in the third column of assigned webpages and may contain information such as related
links, events, highlights, contact details, social media link, and office hours. PLEASE NOTE: You must
contact webhelp@mtholyoke.edu if you need to make changes to the contact block. You
do not have access to change that block.
There are two types of third columns items: Section Callouts and Unique Page Callouts. Section
Callouts appear on all pages of a section, unless a unique page callout is assigned. Unique Page Callouts only
appear on the designated page, and thus are useful for including text or links specific to one page of content.
These two types of callouts are edited in slightly different ways and the instructions in this chapter will discuss
each of these.
In the example below, the third column section callouts include: Highlights, Related Links, Contact, and
Office Hours.
Section Callouts Defined Content displayed in your third column are referred to as section callouts. Section callouts are inherited on all
pages on your section of the website unless you have assigned another section callout or a unique section
callout.
Unique Section Callouts Defined You may add unique callouts to any individual webpage. This allows you to provide specific links relevant to
the content on that particular page. Unique page callouts are not inherited to other pages.
Add or Edit Section Callouts
