What is an Icon Card?

An Icon Card is a flexible, visually engaging content component designed to highlight key actions and guide users through clear navigation choices across a website. Built as part of the updated brand refresh, Icon Cards replace the older Icon component. They are intended for use on homepages and top-level pages, where scannability and usability are particularly important.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Add a Cards Grid Section

  • Click the Edit link at the top of the page.
  • Place your cursor in the section where you want the cards.
  • Click the plus icon → Select Cards Grid.

2. Add a Section Header

  1. Add a Section Header above your cards.
  2. (Optional) Add a teaser that provides supporting context.
  3. In Styles, set the header level to H2.

3. Add CTA Cards

  • Place your cursor below the Section Header and add an Icon Card.
  • Select an Icon from the dropdown.
  • Add a Title (max 70 characters).
  • Add a Teaser (max 300 characters).
  • Configure the Button:
    • URL: Select a piece of content or enter an internal/external path
    • Link Text: Provide a clear action, e.g., “Visit the ABC Lab” (avoid generic text)

4. Add Additional Icon Cards

  • Add at least two more cards (3, 6, or 9 recommended for visual balance).

Background Colors

We recommend working with a Site Administrator to apply background colors to CTA Card Grids and standalone CTA Cards when you need them to stand out.

Note: Background colors can be applied only within One Column and Card Grid sections.

How to Apply a Background Highlight

  1. Open the Styles tab.
  2. Choose one of the approved background colors:
  • None (default)
  • Blue 100
  • Blue 300
  • Blue 500
  • Blue 700
  • Sand 300
  • Sand 500
