Configuration

Front Button Settings

In this section, you can configure the icon and the title associated to the button.

Buttons are strategically crafted to grab users' attention, enticing them to delve into hidden content. The titles and icons are there to guide them to the information they seek, saving time that would otherwise be spent searching or navigating various pages on the website.

If you're not in edit mode already, click Edit at the top right of the page.

This section includes the following fields:

In the first field, copy and paste the link of the icon you want to use to illustrate the title.

You need to upload the icon in advance to a folder on SharePoint Online, specifically in the Site contents of the intranet, where all users have access (see below).

How to upload a picture to SharePoint?

Click on the Settings icon at the top right of the page, and then on Site contents.

Select the folder where you want to upload your icon (e.g., Site Assets) and upload the picture.
Select the image and click on the Info icon on the right of the top bar.

Go back to the page with the Hover button web part and insert the path of the icon in the required field.

Below is an example of an icon added to a button:

In the Title field, write the title of the button. The title appears to the right of the icon, as shown in the example below:

Back Button Settings

This section allows you to enrich your button with additional information, enabling users to explore further.

If you're not in edit mode already, click Edit at the top right of the page.

Here you can input the title of the back button and a text with additional information. Users will be able to read this text by hovering their cursor over the button. See an example below:

For further customization, a hyperlink can be added to the back button paragraph. This will encourage users to click the link and explore content. To insert a hyperlink, take the following steps:

First of all, write your text in the Paragraph field.
Choose where you want to insert the link (at the beginning, in the middle or at the end of the text) and copy and paste the following code:

<a href="https://www.google.it/" target="_blank" style="color:red; text-decoration:none">Clicca qui<a/>

Highlighted in yellow are the sections to be modified according to your preferences.

Red = the color you want to appear in your text. You can change the color by writing the appropriate color in English.
Clicca qui = Call To Action inviting the user to access the link. You can modify the CTA text as you wish.

Below is an example of custom text with a link using the following code: <a href="https://www.google.it/" target="_blank" style="color:red; text-decoration:none">Clicca qui<a/>

Alternatively, you can copy and paste an internal or external link into the Button url field. Users will simply need to click the button to access the link and explore content. Thanks to the Open on a new tab field, you can choose whether to open the link on the same tab or a new tab.

It is not possible to customize the color of the back button title.
