Homepage

Use Homepage to program lead feature, top articles, Of High Interest, featured partners, channel grid, newsletter modules, and right-rail tabs.

Prerequisites

• Articles, channels, ads, and partner resources referenced by homepage modules are publish-ready.
• Homepage placement decisions are approved by the editorial owner.

Steps

1. Open Homepage.
2. Review current lead feature, top articles, Of High Interest, featured partners, and rail tabs.
3. Add or replace referenced articles, channels, ad placements, and custom link metadata.
4. Save draft changes.
5. Preview the homepage and key responsive breakpoints.
6. Publish the relevant module or article placement state.

Resulting state

Published homepage records control the public homepage. Missing CMS data should produce neutral CMS data issue messages, not hard-coded fallback editorial content.

Permissions

Homepage programming requires CMS write access and editorial approval for lead placement, sponsor placement, and partner promotion.

Failure cases and recovery

• A promoted article is not visible: confirm Article published state, Channel published state, and homepage placement/order.
• Wrong order: update homepage placement order or module item order.
• Sponsor placement missing: verify the ad placement and sponsor resource records.
• Accidental promotion: remove the placement, save, publish, and verify the homepage.
