Extra Hero block

Extra Hero is a flexible landing-page hero block that pairs bold headline text with a supporting image and a call-to-action area. It is designed for marketing-style pages where you want a strong first impression with a primary message, supporting copy, and one or more links.

Key parts of the block:

• Title: multiple title lines for a rotating headline effect.
• Description: rich text summary beneath the title.
• Note: short supporting text (for example, pricing or a brief disclaimer).
• Media: a single image with alt and title text.
• Alignment: horizontal (left/right) and vertical (top/center/bottom) alignment controls.
• Layout: column width options to control text vs. image emphasis.
• Actions: one or more links (URL + link text) for calls to action.

The sample content in content/ includes a hero image and a demo Extra Hero block to help you preview and test the layout quickly.

Configuration

All configuration is included in the recipe under config/ and is installed when the recipe is applied.
