Widgets
What are widgets?
Widgets are the building blocks of Invotra. They add the information, images, polls, links, and so on, to sections and content types.
They are your customisable panels through which multiple types of content are displayed. These panels are also structural and dictate what content goes where throughout your intranet.
Significantly, widgets are easy to rearrange using the In Place Editor but that doesn’t mean you should. Remember, just like with layouts, widgets should feel familiar for users on their search for the information they need
How to add widgets

- Select the ‘+’ icon within a region to add a widget
