A new alternative to the announcement cards is a List. To create this, first create a list of announcements you want to make by going to Content -> Lists in Sitefinity, and creating a list. In each item, fill out these fields:
Once you've created your list, all you need to do after that is drop in an MVC List widget, select your List, and choose the "Card carousel with count" template. See example below.
<p style="text-align: center;">
<a class="button-secondary button--big" href="#" title="Speakers" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Full Lineup</a> </p>
Note: when the below refers to making two layout blocks "neighbors", you should make sure they're both part of a parent layout element, but not one within the other. The easiest way to do this is to label the parent element (the one you're dragging two into), so you can see two distinct layout blocks, one above the other. If you only see one box to drop content into they're probably nested.

mg-thumbnail-list--5-acrossThe number in the template you select will be how many columns are used, so try to set a good amount for the amount of space you have and/or the number of sponsors you have. (e.g.: don't choose 5 columns if you're displaying in a very small space; don't choose 4 columns if you have 9 sponsors since you'll have one on a row all its own.)
<div id="pull" data-meetingid="442BBE00000008"> </div>
Drag in a 100% width layout and add a banded-bright section-inner class to the wrapper and a container class to Column 1.
For creating a block-like treatment, first look at the number of rows you need (rows being dictated by complete lines of white space that span the entire treatment). Then, for each row, choose either a 33%+67%, 67%+33%, or a 33%+34%+33% layout element. In any case, name the wrapper class tile--banner .
In each column drag in a Tiles widget (under Curated Tiles, non-mvc). Chose to display 'one particular tile only'. Under Single Item Settings/ Detail Template, select Matrix - Single Tile. Small and medium tiles are reserved for columns of 33% or 34%, while large tiles are for 66%. Small tiles can be stacked in the same column.
Since 100% can't be divided three ways evenly, some alignment issues can arise. When creating this treatment, choose one column to apply the extra 1% to and stick with it throughout every row.

When using a navigation widget:
add a list-across class to a list to make it display horizontal.
<ul class="list-across"> <li>I am a list item</li> <li>I am also a list item!</li> </ul>
add a list-across-divided class to a list to make it a divided horizontal list.
<ul class="list-across-divided"> <li>I am a list item</li> <li>I am also a list item!</li> </ul>
<ul class="list-across"> <li><a href="#" class="button">Hello world</a></li> <li><a href="#" class="button-secondary">Hello world</a></li> </ul>
To make buttons bigger add a button--big class.
<ul class="list-across"> <li><a href="#" class="button button--big">Hello world</a></li> <li><a href="#" class="button-secondary button--big">Hello world</a></li> </ul>

This layout column has a max width (the content within does not strech to the edge of the browser on wide viewports).
Use a container class on a layout column to apply the sites' standard max width restriction.
This layout column has a more comfortable reading line length.
Add section to the wrapper and container and reading-container class on the same column to shorten the max-width restriction.
This layout column is more narrow.
In addition to the container class, also use a reading-narrow class on the same column to shorten the max-width restriction.
This layout column has the most narrow max width of all.
In addition to the container class, also use a reading-slim class on the same column to shorten the max-width restriction.
I've been pushed down.
Drop in a multi-column layout block and add a divided-columns class to the wrapper.
Add a equal-heights class if you want the columns to appear equal in height.
Add a center-inside class if you want the content within the columns to be vertically centered.
The default background of the site is a light gray color.
If for some reason layout elements don't stack on mobile - add a mobile-zero class to the layout element.
Drag in a two column layout and add a media-box--secondary class to the wrapper.

ARLINGTON, VA — Consumers are adapting their shopping strategies to include more flexibility as they attempt to control their grocery spending heading into the fall, according to the latest survey conducted by FMI – The Food Industry Association and The Hartman Group. The report, U.S. Grocery Shopper Trends: Return to Routine, provides a crucial snapshot of how shoppers are finding value and evolving their grocery shopping habits in the current economic environment.
While shoppers report continued concerns regarding inflationary pressures on food and other consumer categories, 83% of Americans feel they have at least some control over their grocery spending.
Encouragingly, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) midyear inflation data also found that inflation for most food categories fell below historical averages in the first half of 2024, providing further optimism for consumers. Additionally, the USDA projects food-at-home prices will increase by only a percentage point this year, while next year’s forecast dips below this benchmark significantly to a 0.7% anticipated increase for 2025.
“Shoppers report that one of the few parts of their household budgets they can control is their grocery spending and that through taking advantage of deals, promotions or shopping around, they continue to find value,” said Leslie G. Sarasin, President and CEO of FMI. “While we understand shoppers’ concerns about the price of food on store shelves, our U.S. Grocery Shopper Sentiment Index shows consumers appreciate the ability to find value in their grocery shopping and continue to enjoy grocery shopping, a trend we expect to continue as food inflation cools.”
Consumers continue to say their primary store for purchasing food does an excellent job of meeting their needs, with 79% of shoppers reporting that getting a “good value” when grocery shopping is their top priority. Shoppers report their average weekly household grocery spending has held steady during the past 18 months ($163). In addition, 63% of shoppers say they continue to look for deals and adjust their mix of food stores, products and brands to manage their expenses.
Furthermore, grocery shoppers noted a shift in spending habits due to heat waves affecting every part of the country and extreme weather events this summer. During that time, grocery budgets largely increased for American families, as parents were more likely to stock up on necessities than if the weather were more temperate.
FMI’s U.S. Grocery Shopper Trends: Return to Routine survey also revealed:
For Media:
Generally used on landing pages.
Drag in a three column layout and add tile--banner and tile--row classes to the wrapper.
This variation of the tile-banner is intended to span the width of the screen, so make sure that you don't set this up inside another layout area with a max width.
In each column drag in a Tiles widget (under Curated Tiles, non-mvc). Chose to display 'one particular tile only'. Under Single Item Settings/ Detail Template, select Matrix - Single Tile.
All icon spans must include an "fmi-icon" class in addition to the classes listed below. (e.g. <span class="fmi-icon fmi-icon-calendar"></span>)
Also, if you will be using the icon inline with some text next to it: use a 'spacer-left' or 'spacer-right' class like so:
<span class="fmi-icon fmi-icon-calendar spacer-right"></span> calendarSee all icons
To display a large icon, use a large-icon class on the icon element.
Add a icon-badge class to an icon to give it a dark circular background.
To edit/add section icons (the green circle with an icon that appears on most pages).
In the admin navigate to Content > Section Icons
In the Title field of your image, prefix your title with mg-caption: . The caption will be added automatically.
Here are the updated IDs for all Categories.
If the category is a "sub category" (i.e. nested under something else), the ID of its parent appears in the third column - otherwise this column says "NULL" and can be ignored. We included this because it is important for determining whether you're looking at the "Training & Development" (ID=20) which is its own top-level category or if you're looking at the "Training & Development" which is nested underneath Education.
