Inline Feature

Overview

The Inline Feature allows specific marketing campaigns to be put in front of the user using banner images as a call to action to push users to either click or scan a QR depending on the platform. This feature provides platform-specific user experiences, with mobile and tablet users clicking to redirect to external links, while CTV and Roku users can scan QR codes or navigate to dedicated landing pages.


Creating an Inline Feature

  1. Navigate to the Media Library in Backstage

  2. Click "New Media" in the top right corner

  3. Select "Inline Feature" from the dropdown menu

Inline Feature Preset

Complete the required fields:

  1. Title: Enter the name of the inline feature as it will appear in the system

  2. Description: Enter details about the campaign or feature (required for creation)

  3. Thumbnail: Upload an image that will serve as a visual reference in the backstage interface. Please reference Platform-Specific Image Requirements for more information on the required images

In order to properly use the Inline Feature, a destination URL must be added into the Link Destination field under Additional Information. This link will be the destination the Mobile/Tablet feature image redirects to.

Inline Feature Playlist Logic

The Inline Feature playlist streamlines banner content management between content rails. Instead of repeatedly updating the same Inline Feature asset with new graphics, names, and descriptions for each change, users can now add multiple Inline Features as individual media items to this dedicated playlist. Apps and Web are built to only display the asset in the 1 spot of the playlist, offering greater flexibility. This approach allows users to prepare new Inline Features on own their schedule and control exactly when they appear by simply repositioning items in the playlist.
