The Linkbox is used to prominently display one or more links within the layout. It consists of individual elements that can optionally be arranged around a graphic. In its simplest form, the Linkbox enables the publication of a linked image via the CMS. Optionally, the Linkbox can be extended with additional content such as headline, subline, copy text, and a CTA to enrich links with content and highlight them purposefully.[1]
