The component can include:

  • a headline (can be shown or hidden)

  • a subheadline (can be shown or hidden)

  • multiple teaser items

Each item typically consists of:

  • an image or video

  • an optional date (can be shown or hidden)

  • a headline

  • a link

All standard linking options are available.


Display & Layout

Teaser items can be displayed as:

  • Grid

  • Carousel

In grid layout, items automatically wrap into new rows once a certain number is reached (typically after four items per row).


In carousel layout, items can be navigated horizontally.

Two visual display options are available:

  • Image above the headline

  • Image as background, with the headline displayed directly on top of the image

When using the background option, special attention should be paid to typography readability.


Media & Customization

Within each item, you can:

  • select images from the media library

  • adjust the image crop and set the focal point

  • embed videos from the media library or web videos

  • enable a Dark Overlay or Dark Gradient to improve text readability

Dark overlay vs dark Gradient

Date and headline can optionally be hidden, allowing the item to function purely as a visual link element.

The component’s color scheme can be adjusted. When placing text on images, ensure sufficient contrast for readability.


Tips & Tricks

  • You can create an unlimited number of items.

  • In grid layout, items automatically wrap depending on the number of elements (typically four per row).

  • Pay close attention to contrast and typography readability when using background images.

  • Use Dark Overlay or Dark Gradient strategically when text is placed directly on an image.
