What each field controls
The Field column is the label as it appears in Contentful; under it, the field's id, for talking to a developer. The number matches the marker on the screenshots above.
| # | Field | What it controls | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
1 | Kind kindrequired | Which band of the page this section fills. | Set this FIRST — it decides which band this section is, and therefore which of the other fields do anything. "hero" is the odd one out: it is not a band on a hotel page at all, it is the wording of the hero at the top of a TRIP page. Choose one of: overview facilities whenToVisit tripCustomisation areaMap reviews faqs hero |
2 | Eyebrow (small title above) eyebrow | The small label above the heading. | Leave empty and nothing shows. |
3 | Heading headingrequired | The band's title. | Also the entry's title in Contentful's lists, so it is how you find this section again. |
4 | Introduction introduction | The paragraph under the heading. | — |
5 | Selections label selectionsLabel | The heading over the choices made so far, e.g. "Your holiday so far". | — |
6 | Departure label departureLabel | The label on the airport picker, e.g. "Flying from". | — |
7 | Calendar note calendarNote | The small print under the price calendar. | The right place for the per-person / two-sharing caveat, because it sits with the prices it qualifies. |
8 | Calendar upgrade notice calendarUpgradeNotice | The notice about upgrades shown with the calendar. | — |
9 | Parts cards | The three kinds of block inside this band. | An Icon item of Kind "expertCallout" is the speak-to-an-expert strip. Content cards of Kind "linkCard" are the promotional callouts under it. Icon items of Kind "checklistItem" are the Good-to-know lines. Anything else linked here is ignored. |
10 | Call to action cta | The band's button. | — |
Other entries this section needs
| Content type | Why you need it |
|---|---|
| Icon Item | Two kinds of part: an "expertCallout" item is the speak-to-an-expert strip under the map, and "checklistItem" items are the Good-to-know lines that close the band. |
| Content card | Content cards with Kind = "linkCard" are the promotional callouts inside the band. |
How to change it, step by step
Understand what you are about to change
This band is part of the SHARED hotel template. Editing it changes the same band on every hotel page on the site. If you only want it different on one hotel, use the last step instead.
Find the entry
Search Contentful for "Hotel template — Build your holiday" and open it. You can also reach it from the "Hotel detail — shared template" Page entry, which lists every band in page order.
Change what you need
Edit the fields listed above. Contentful saves as you type, but saving is not publishing.
Publish this entry
Change status → Publish, top right. Until you do, hotel pages keep showing the previous published version.
Check a hotel page
Open any hotel page and find the band. Changes appear within about 30 seconds. If nothing changed, an unpublished entry is nearly always the reason — /api/debug-fallbacks lists anything that fell back to built-in content.
If you wanted it on ONE hotel only
Undo your change here, then open that hotel's Accommodation entry, add a band of the same kind to its Sections list and author it there. A band on the hotel's own record overrides the template's for that hotel and leaves the other 1,800-odd untouched.
