Tips & Good practices

  • If you add a link in the Banner that leaves utahtech.edu, goes to the catalog, or directs the user to a file, make the link opens in a new tab.

Bad Practices

  • Do not create too many rows. There’s no upper limit, but you shouldn’t be keeping more than ten quotes on your page at a time.
