Limitations / Considerations
If you add / want to utilise Banner Images to any other section of the site, by default it will connect to the Banner Images on the home page. If you want to connect to a new / unique list in a different part of the site, you will need to do the following:
- Add "BannerImages" as a new app (under Site contents) in the sub site you require them.
- Fill out the new BannerImages list
- Add "Banner Images" web part to the page you require
- Click Edit Web Part
- Click into Query > then Browse next to " Show items from the following list:"
- Navigate to where you added the new "BannerImages" App and click ok.
- Wait for the page to load and then click "Ok" or "Apply" in the Edit Menu
