Masonry Cards

Masonry cards are used to feature content across the site.

Card Setup

Masonry cards should always be setup on a grid. By default, each card will occupy 4 columns, except for Featured cards - which will occupy 8 columns.

When the .grid__row also contains a class of .masonry , the cards will be vertically positioned by our masonry library.

There is a helper method available for each card type in card_helper.rb . Typically, you will only need to provide the object or page location that each card represents.

Standard Dynamic Cards

Standard cards may be rendered for any object that has a title, description, and creator.

Comment / Reply counts will be displayed if the object has that association.

Discussion cards will always have a transparent footer area. Only cards for objects with featured images will have an image.

The following represent a sampling of cards for each type of object.

Examples

Featured Dynamic Cards

Featured dynamic cards are also essentially the same as the above Standard Dynamic Cards, but with emphasized title and imagery, and without description snippets.

Only objects with featured images may be used for featured dynamic cards.

Static Cards

Static cards are stand alone cards that are not based on an instance of an object or location.
Examples

Owner Cards

Owner cards are based on an owning user and are only used on profile pages. Because they are tied to a user and only shown on that user's profile, avatar and user name information has been hidden - except in the case of discussions.
Examples

Build your portfolio. Add samples of your work to your profile.

Thumbs

Thumbs are used to display Downloads and E-Learning Examples on listing pages. Thumbs should be used within a grid.

Featured Thumb

Standard Thumb

Category Thumb

Job Listings

This is how jobs will appear in the job center.

Image Sizes

Implementation Details

All images are constrained by width, but not by height.

This is to ensure that we can use CSS to fill the image space with the image, via background-image and background-size , without having to use massive image files and hopefully avoiding pixelation.

Authors have been provided the below optimal image dimensions and are expected to upload only images with those dimensions.
