Uploading and Adding Images on your site
Image are EXTREMELY IMPORTANT when it comes to the succes of a Parent Group website. Our years of testing have shown that sites with images have 25% more consistent traffic and almost double the amount of time spent on the site by a visitor. Adding images to your Digital PTO website is easy and we highly encourage you to use images in as many News Posts as possible for the best results.
A few things to keep in mind
Our free plans come with limited storage space. If you plan on uploading quite a few documents and or images to your Digital PTO site we would highly suggest upgrading to a Premium Plan. Digital PTO supports most popular image formats. Individual Files sizes are limited to 15 MB.

Step 6: Select the Alignment for your Image
Please note that some themes override alignment options. If you are not seeing the results you want after setting the alignment, this may be the cause of that. The only solution to this is to select a different theme.
Step 7: Determine the Link Option for your Image
If you do opt for the Custom URL option, you will then need to specify the URL (webpage) you want to link the image to. This is good for sign up style images, etc.
