Adding a masthead

The masthead, previously known as the banner, is the large image at the top of any page. Though there are spearate components for each page type, adding a masthead to the page is the same for all.

First, check the page to see if the masthead is turned on. When the masthead is turned on, you will see a separate editing region at the top of the page. This region is only visible in the "Edit" window.
