Limitations / Considerations

- Add "PromoPanels" as a new app (under Site contents) in the sub site you require them.
- Fill out the new PromoPanels list
- Add "Promo Panels" web part to the page you require them
- Click Edit Web Part
- Click into Query > then Browse next to " Show items from the following list:"
- Navigate to where you added the new "PromoPanel" App and click ok.
- Wait for the page to load and then click "Ok" or "Apply" in the Edit Menu
