Resources Overview
The resources section is one of Archie’s Dynamic Content sections. The section is dynamic in that adding a single resource will automatically add the resource to the resources landing page and make it available for use in the resources feed component. Resources function very similar to News, but have a card-style display, instead of the news-feed display.
Navigate to the resources section in the left-hand menu of the admin.
Select a resource to edit or ‘Add New’. Give the resource a title and add content to the WYSIWYG editor. You have the same WYSIWYG capabilities in this editor as you do with the standard WYSIWYG component.
Post Options
Resources Categories
Select one or many resources categories to assign to the article. You can set up new categories by navigating to the resources Category sub menu in the left-hand navigation.
Pinned

Offsite Links to Publication
This option allows you to link to an external webpage. Select that option and the content in the WYSIWYG will not show and will instead redirect to the offsite link. Once the box is checked, add the external URL and the publication name for attribution. Note that adding a link here will not automatically pull in any image from the article itself.
