Customizing the right rail of photo galleries

There are limitations to customizing the right rail of photo galleries, so here are some insights.

Customizing the right rail of your photo galleries is a great way to drive traffic to more content in your section's articles and multimedia content. Here's what I've found you can and can't use:

Container types you can use:

  1. Top Story (with up to 6 related links showing)

  2. Media Promos (I've only tried the 3-thumbnail layout)

  3. Decoy (with up to 6 related links showing)

  4. Site Message

  5. Events Calendar (I tested the 5-day table layout with event listings and a search underneath)

  6. RSS Container

Container tyes you can't use (yet!):

  1. Miscellaneous

  2. Headlines (Unwanted borders appear at this time, but could be Mantis-ed to fix)

  3. Polls

  4. Multidisplay
