You will also need to use the Image Selection Tool depending on the variant you select. Within the Content Editor you can enter the slogan for the hero, if the variant you selected has it available (not all variants have a place for a slogan). Depending on if you want to use a Text Slogan or a Slogan created via an image, you have the ability to do either or, but you cannot currently do half text, half image.

You will also need to use the Image Selection Tool depending on the variant you select. Before starting this step, someone should have already enabled all the necessary product registrations within iCC for this dealers account. The product registrations are what help drive this feature within Sitesmith. Without the registrations, there would be nothing to select in this section. To get a type to display with in the types bar, you will check the box for the default type available, or click the Add Type button to add a custom type to the bar. It’s best to use the check boxes when available. When adding a custom type, you will want to select the proper graphic for the type you are adding. In some cases you will want to add a custom type when grouping types such as motorhomes together into one icon. When adding in custom types you will want to make sure you link the page to the correct URL. Here is a list of default product page names to use Standard Pages. If the page is not listed here, follow the same pattern as (/product/type-name/) for an RV type. Note: You can add in custom non-type icons into the types bar. Maybe the dealer wants to use a type space to display Used RVs as a type or use a space for another graphic such as Shopper Guide. These custom pages do not need to follow the same structure as the types, this icon can link to any page within the website, just make sure you link the page correctly. You have the ability to select which type of icon graphics are used. More realistic 3rd graphics or silhouette graphics. You can also display or not display the New and Used links below the type icon. Due note that no matter what icon is there it will apply the new and used links.

You will then need to add a Label to display on the website, add Action Text, and type in the Target URL (Note: When you type in the page name, if you currently don’t have that page created in the site page section, you will need to add the page in the Site Pages section.) Note: When switching between different card variants (Tall vs Short), you will need to make sure you are refreshing the images within the image selector tool because the size of the images are different between tall card vs short card. For anything custom, you will have to include the design/FED team to make customizations. As always there is a notes area to include additional notes for the design/FED teams. Be sure to click the “Continue” button after using the tool so that it saves any work done.
Brand Display	Before starting this step, someone should have already enabled all the necessary brands/models within iCC RV Library for this dealers account. The RV library is what helps drive this feature within Sitesmith. Without the models enabled there would be nothing displayed in this section. We want to ensure we have all the proper brands/models enabled prior to the call with the client so that they can see and validate that we have enabled all the correct brands. If a dealer sells many different manufacturers on their lot, we will want to select the first option “Show manufacturer logos with brand listed in dropdowns.” If a dealer sells one manufacturer we should display the second options “Show all brand logos (without manufacturers)” so it appears like they have more logos vs just showing on manufacturer logo. It is up to the client what they want to do, but we should not have too many logos or too few logos displaying on the homepage.
