Sponsors, Ads, Promotions
Sponsor, Ads, and Promotion widgets are a great way to promote non-event related incentives and to increase ad revenue.
Image Sizes
These widgets have unique image sizes that are not shown in the Image Sizes list in your Media gallery due to the volume of available layouts. Image sizes and guidelines are available here. You can also download a PDF version which includes a visual reference.

No text included, just image and link. Commonly used for Sponsor logos.
- Click on the Add Content button and choose the Sponsor widget.
- The widget will automatically add itself to the very bottom of the page.
- Click Edit to choose a layout. You can either choose Square which is 1 column wide or Wide which is 3 columns wide and shows up as more of a sponsor banner with multiple sponsors.

- Wide: Can be any size - No text
Ad Serve Widget
The Ad Serve widget is designed to accept straight HTML. Commonly used for 300x250 and 728x90 ad serves. Remember that your site is responsive so anything you place in the Ad Serve widget will need to be coded to be responsive.

Please note that when the wide option is selected, another choice will appear to display on desktop only or mobile only.

Most code these days is responsive so in that case, just enter it twice: once for desktop and once for mobile.
