Content Types
Content types are tools to help web authors break up, emphasize, and organize content in a more engaging manner. Below are examples of each Content Type available for CC's website.
Standard Web Page Content
Your standard text box. You can also add images, videos, hyperlinks, google calendars, and basically anything you can upload to or embed into Cascade. This is also where you would create tables for course grids or schedules. If you are copying and pasting something into here, make sure to first paste it in a generic text editor like NotePad or TextEdit. Copying and pasting directly from your email or Word document causes some weird things to happen as random bits of formatting code get added on. We are working on a way to make this not happen, but in the meantime please paste in NotePad or TextEdit beforehand. Alternatively, you can turn on "paste as text" which is located under "edit" in the top right of your text box toolbar in Cascade (this will remove most formatting styles such as bold or italics as well as any tables you have created).

This was the "CC - Card Deck" widget in dotCMS.
While you can cram as much stuff as you want in here, beware there's a lot of formatting with card decks that we cannot control. Card decks also make for a great template for reusable content.
also keep this short
You add everything that you could add in the standard content container. Obviously, this is a much smaller space, so it's recommended that you don't add anything larger/more complex than a logo image or simple picture. The WES logo is a good example.

Forms (PLEASE use Clive)
To set up a clive form, contact the web paraprof. We HIGHLY discourage using third-party embedded forms because those always get lost and become inaccessible when the person who made that form leaves CC.3 Image Cards
