The "Call to Action" content type is a replicable piece of information that can be put at the bottom of almost any page. These are generally used to direct users to take some sort of action by clicking on a link such as to contact a legislator, read an article, download a resource, or visit another website to "learn more".

When an editor is creating or editing a page, they can choose which CTA they would like to display at the bottom, or choose none. If they choose none, the bottom of the page, is just the dark footer. Since the CTA is at the very bottom of the page, editors should note that if the information is time-sensitive, or needs to be seen by everyone, putting the information higher up on the page, or using a site a "Alert" might be useful as well.

The Parts of a "Call to Action"

The primary (and required) parts of a CTA are the Title and the Button, which includes a URL link and the Button Name.  In addition, editors can add images, description, and subtitles.

Adding a CTA

• Go to the Content Tab, click "+Add Content" button, and choose "Call to Action"
• Fill out the fields for Title, Description, and image.
• Add an action. Click the "Save" button at the top of the page.
• Your CTA will now be available to choose from the "Call to Action" drop down menu available when creating and editing other pages.

Editing a CTA

To edit an existing CTA, visit the Content Tab to search for it.

• Use the filter "Content type", choose "Call to Action" and hit the "filter" button. This will bring up all the current CTAs.
• If you know the name of your CTA, you can also use the **"Title" search bar, to search on the name, or partial name of the page you wish to find. After you type the name, hit the enter key, or the "filter" button.
• Once you have found the page you want, click on the Title, and then click “Edit” in the navigation above. Edit the CTA, and then press the green “Save” button at the top.
