The Headline Feature component is an extended OOTB full-width component that holds text and visually sections off the page with a solid background or an image background.

The Headline Feature component allows content authors to feature text and an image on America Counts story pages. The text portion functions as a page title, so the title component can be used as the article title. The image portion of the component should be relevant to the article.
The Headline Feature should be used on America Counts story pages. This component is already baked into the Census Article 2 Column Right and can be added to other pages as needed, however the formatting and style of the component will differ.
The configurations available in the Headline Feature component's dialog are determined by template and component policy.
Below is an example of a Headline Feature component on a Census Detail 2 Column Right template, with the Headline Feature Component Policy applied.
The initial content structure defined in the Census Detail 2 Column Right template includes a Headline Feature component, which cannot be deleted or moved, and will only appear on the published page if authored.
The Headline Feature Component Policy has been pre-configured with four tabs.
Under the Links & Actions tab, authors can insert a link to the featured page by inputing the page URL directly or by selecting the checkmark to browse the DAM for the page.
Under the Text tab, authors have the option to enter a title manually or select the checkbox to get the title from the page linked in the previous tab. The title will display as the headline of the component.
Under the Image tab, authors can insert an image, either by dragging and dropping the asset from the Side Panel, or by browsing the DAM.
Under the Styles tab, authors have the option to change the Headline Feature's style or keep the default style, which is "None".
Headline Features that are added to a page manually and not baked into the structure of the template have a separate policy and the style and configuration options will vary.
Below is an example of a Headline Feature in the body container, with the Headline Feature Single Page Policy applied.
The Headline Feature Single Page Policy has been pre-configured with three, instead of four, tabs.
Under the Links & Actions tab, authors can insert a link to the featured page by inputing the page URL directly or by selecting the checkmark to browse the DAM for the page.
Under the Text tab, authors have the option to enter a title and description manually or select the checkbox to get the title and the description from the page linked in the previous tab. The title will display as the headline of the component, and the description below it.
Under the Image tab, authors can insert an image, either by dragging and dropping the asset from the Side Panel, or by browsing the DAM.
