The content within a dashboard is created by adding panels, and it is possible to add any number of panels to the dashboard.

Masonry - The masonry panel is similar to a contents list, however, the visual display is different.

Clicking Select next to content source displays the following screen:

  • Panel - You can select a different panel from this drop-down menu.
  • Title - Enter the title of the panel. You can hide the title by selecting the Hide title checkbox.
  • Default display - Here you can select whether you want the most recent, or the most viewed as your default display. 
  • Content source - Select the source of your content.
  • Show content source - Select the checkbox to display the source of your content. This can be either one module or multiple.
    • Additionally, you can filter the content further via the Metadata. E.g. if you had one module for all content but use metadata to define more specific things.
  • Show read time - Select the checkbox to display the read time.
  • No of items to display - Enter how many items you want to display.
  • Filters - Click Add to add filters to the panel. A new box will be displayed, asking you to choose your filter alignment. The filters are the metadata nodes you have tagged the content on. Only the tags that have content will be displayed. 
  • Display in - Select whether you want to display panel on all devices, or just desktop/tablet.
  • Panel class - This field allows you to apply custom designs using CSS. This is for advanced users.
  • Respect user dashboard preferences - Select this checkbox to ensure your content respects a user's dashboard preferences. You must select these preferences in the My Preferences section. 
  • Respect channel settings - Select this checkbox to ensure your content respects channel settings. A channel admin can select specific metadata to limit the channel content to.
