Slideshow page template
Use the slideshow page template to show a set of images in the body of a page.
Note: This page type is only available in the old visual editor. In the Components Editor, you can add a Carousel component to your page, and position it on the page with the rest of your content.
Important: As a public institution, the University has a legal obligation to make accessible web content. When using images or other visual media, you must provide a text-based alternative, such as an alt tag.
