Hero Slide

Homepage_Hero_Slide_001

What this is used for

One full-width hero slide: a headline, optional sub-text, a background image or video, and an optional button. Add several slides to a Hero to make an auto-rotating slider.

How you use it

The big banner at the top of a page. You link it from the page rather than adding it to the section list.

Entries of this type are listed by their Internal name. That is the name you and everyone else will see when searching for the entry, so make it descriptive.

Fields you can fill in

Field	What goes in it	Notes
Internal name internalName required	Short text	—
Style variant required	Short text	Choose one of: standard sale-button sale-takeover no-cta
Headline headline required	Short text	—
Sub-text subheading	Long text	—
Background image or video media	One image or file	—
Image/video description (accessibility) mediaAlt	Short text	—
Button (CTA entry) cta	One linked entry	The slide's button, as a CTA entry — this is the only way to set its STYLE (variant, colour including the Kuoni brand yellow, size, full width, open in a new tab). If this is set it WINS over the two plain "Button label" / "Button link" fields below, which stay for slides authored before CTA entries existed and render the hero's standard yellow pill. Leave all three empty for a slide with no button (or set Style to "no-cta", which suppresses the button without clearing the copy). Links to: Link / CTA
Button label (optional) ctaLabel	Short text	Plain button label, with no styling controls. Ignored when a CTA entry is linked in "Button (CTA entry)" above. Needs "Button link" filled in too — a label with no destination renders no button.
Button link (internal path or URL) ctaUrl	Short text	Where the plain button goes: an internal path (/holidays/maldives) or a full URL. Ignored when a CTA entry is linked in "Button (CTA entry)" above.

Fields kept in step automatically

These appear greyed out, or not at all. They are filled in from another system, so anything typed here would be overwritten.
