[](https://wiki.unil.ch/ci/uploads/images/gallery/2026-01/kV0image.png)
**Blocks**
At the bottom, a toolbar lets you add different types of content:
[](https://wiki.unil.ch/ci/uploads/images/gallery/2026-01/ROVimage.png)
Respectively: text block, image block, gallery block, video block, podcast block and quote block.
- **Text block**: the user can use several formatting tools directly in the text
[](https://wiki.unil.ch/ci/uploads/images/gallery/2026-01/cbJimage.png)
- **Image block**: users can add an image in 4:3 format, which requires cropping. The rectangular area can be adjusted with the mouse to preview the crop. Click on the crop button and then click on the Validate crop button to add the image to the content.
[](https://wiki.unil.ch/ci/uploads/images/gallery/2026-01/M65image.png)
Once the first image has been added, it is possible to add a second using the *Add secondary image* button, in which case the two images will be displayed side by side:
[](https://wiki.unil.ch/ci/uploads/images/gallery/2026-01/v7yimage.png)
You can then manage the presentation of these two images using the S*witch images* and *Delete secondary image* buttons:
[](https://wiki.unil.ch/ci/uploads/images/gallery/2026-01/Z80image.png)

[](https://wiki.unil.ch/ci/uploads/images/gallery/2026-01/kb4image.png)

- the main image will be placed at the very beginning of the content when viewed
#### Workflow step: Images / video

As with adding images to the content, it is essential to crop the image to the correct format before usage ([see here for cropping](https://wiki.unil.ch/ci/books/myunil-and-newsunil-en/page/editing-newsevent-content)).
# Add a video to news and events
Users can add a video to illustrate a news / event. This video will take the place of the main image.
#### Workflow step: Images / video
[](https://wiki.unil.ch/ci/uploads/images/gallery/2026-01/wZrimage.png)
Several sources are available, and the links are generally obtained from the sharing buttons of the respective platforms and must follow these forms:

- **Proposed**: Status of an object proposed by another channel, or submitted by a person who does not have write rights in the channel
- **Online**: Status after publication, appears on the various services (websites, public research, L’ACTU, L’AGENDA)
- **Offline**: Status applies after the end of publication date for news. For events, the date of the event is applied.

- **Annual courses and assessments:** The system only allows registration for courses and assessments taking place during the current semester and/or the upcoming examination session. Typically, in the autumn semester, it is not possible to register for assessments of annual courses, as these are only organized starting from the following summer examination session.
- **Additional credits**: if online registration is not available for certain modules, contact your department office.
- For **other types of registration** (Bachelor/Master theses, etc.), a dedicated link is available on the main registration page.
