A few things to note:

There are no longer pre-set titles like “Breaking News” or “General Alert” that carry through to the sites. You pick the alert type in StoryLine to get the desired type and general appearance, but the title you enter in Storyline for the alert will display on the site.

Please also make sure to provide topical photos in the alerts since the images will be larger. There are default images for each alert type, but you should replace these at the time of creation with something specific to the event, particularly for breaking news and live streaming alerts. Workflow for selecting the primary story link and adding additional text and links to alerts remains the same.

Below are what the new alerts look like with the new image defaults.
