Use the slideshow for the visual walkthrough; the detailed steps below provide the same procedure in an accessible format.

Text walkthrough

The slideshow remains the visual tutorial. These steps provide a complete text fallback.

Prerequisite: Sign in with an account that has access to the area shown in the tutorial.
  1. Open the CMS page
    Open the required CMS page and switch to the media area in its page settings.
  2. Choose the media area
    Decide whether the asset belongs in the hero, gallery, or inline-media slot.
  3. Select hero or gallery media
    Open the media browser and choose an asset with a suitable subject, format, and maintained alternative text.
  4. Configure its presentation
    Set crop, size, visible item count, and click behaviour for the selected media slot.
  5. Save the assignment
    Save the assignment. The selected media ID must remain associated with the intended slot.
  6. Verify the front end
    Verify the page on desktop and mobile, with keyboard navigation, and with the resulting alternative text.

Checkpoint: After the final step, reload the target page and confirm that the expected state remains active.

Common errors: If a control or record is missing, first check permissions, the active language, filters and whether the preceding step was saved.
