Hero section settings
Overview
The hero is the first thing visitors see on every event page. Chamberly gives you four hero styles, height controls, an optional countdown, and a date badge so you can tune the impact level for your audience.
Before you start
Pick or upload a hero image (1600x900 minimum recommended).
Decide whether you want a countdown to build urgency.
Step-by-step
Go to Settings > Styling > Event Page > Hero.
Toggle Enable hero on. (Off hides the section entirely.)
Choose a Style: Overlay (text on image), Split (image on one side), Minimal (text only), or Fullscreen (100vh).
Set Height (Short, Medium, Tall) and Overlay opacity (0–100%).
Set Text alignment: Left, Center, or Right.
Toggle Countdown timer, Date badge, and Location display as needed.
Click Save changes.
Tips & best practices
For dense hero photos, raise overlay opacity to 50–70% so text stays readable.
Fullscreen looks great on flagship galas but feels heavy for weekly mixers. Use Medium for most events.
Turn off the countdown for evergreen sponsorships (year-round programs) to avoid confusion.
FAQ
Where does the hero pull its image from?
From each event’s Featured image. The styling controls how it’s displayed; the image itself is per-event.
Can I disable the hero on one event?
Hero on/off is global. Either turn it off everywhere, or upload a strong featured image for each event.
