Configuration

Content Definitions

Content definitions provided by this module have to be manually by either running the content definitions recipe, adding the content definitions to your own setup recipe or running the content definitions recipe in this module within a custom setup recipe.

Hero

The "Hero" widget uses a responsive media field that represents the images displayed for the background. The responsive media field requires additional project configuration to cater for resizing images via the width query string when accessing the media. To make the hero breakpoints work with the image resize the various sizes need to be defined in the application settings. The below snippet should be included in the appsettings.json for your Orchard Core web project.

{
  "OrchardCore": {
    "OrchardCore.Media": {
      "SupportedSizes": [ 375, 425, 600, 768, 1024, 1280, 1440, 1920, 2560 ]
    }
  }
}

These breakpoints can be configured within the field settings, however any ammendments should also be applied to the appsettings.json file.

Theming

All templates associated to content types defined within this module render HTML that's tightly coupled to scripts and styles defined within our theme boilerplate project.
