For my Directed Studies page - for some of the news events I want to have a summary - to control the text – the summary doesn’t show up – see October 15 and October 6.
Thank you!

Hi Susanna,
I’m looking at the page now and I’m not sure if I completely understand the issue you’re experiencing.
I see that the two events you mentioned both have captions. Are you saying that you want these events to have separate text from the description of the event, that only displays on the news and events page? Or were you able to solve the problem yourself in the time since you posted this question?
Please clarify this for me, and I’ll do my best to help.
thanks,
-Zach

Hi Susanna,
Thank you for speaking with me on the phone. As we discussed, the way to solve this problem with your summary wrapping around your news item’s display image is as follows:
Click the “gear” icon in the upper right-hand corner of the block and select “edit view” to edit the “News block” view.
In the “Format” section, next to ”Show”, click “settings”.
There will be a series of Checkboxes, Check each box with the exception of the “Content; Image” box. This will make the photo display to the left of the text, without the text wrapping around it.
I am now going ot mark this issue as ‘resolved”. As for the other issues we discussed, I’m going to continue looking into those now. Please submit a separate support ticket as we discussed, and I will assume responsibility for that ticket as well.
