Page banners are the first visual element users see when they land on a page. In Sprocket, banners can be either:
Standard Banner (simple page header)
Image Carousel Banner (full-width banner with slides and optional buttons)
The steps below are organized by banner type. Start by identifying which banner you’re using.

Before You Start
Go to Website & App > Pages and open the page you want to update.
If the page is published, create a draft first so you can safely test changes before they go live. (See: How to Create and Manage Draft Pages.)
For image sizing and file requirements, reference Image Requirements under Sprocket Resources.
Step 1: Identify Your Banner Type
Before making changes, confirm which banner type you’re using.
Banner Type 1: Standard Banner (Simple Page Header)
You are using a Standard Banner if:
The banner appears slimmer across the top of the page
The title text defaults to the left side of the banner image
You do NOT see options like “Add Text & Image Slide”
Banner Type 2: Image Carousel (Banner with Slides)
You are using an Image Carousel if:
You see buttons like Add Text & Image Slide
The banner supports multiple slides
You see carousel behavior options like Auto Advance
If you’re unsure which type you have, click directly on the banner area and check what options appear in the right panel.
