05
Images
Show a placeholder when an image is missing
A resilient presentation pattern for content that does not always include an image.
Media
Embed audio using native tags
Using browser-native audio markup instead of adding a heavier player than the content needs.
Calendar
Output an ICS calendar file
Turning article data into a downloadable calendar format for events and reminders.
Video
Choose the right video embedding plugin
Matching the integration method to the actual editorial and performance requirements.
Practice note
Design for missing content
The image-placeholder tip reflects a broader rule: templates should deliberately handle absent media, empty excerpts and incomplete metadata.
Practice note
Prefer native browser capabilities
The audio and calendar examples show how standard formats can reduce dependencies while keeping content portable outside the CMS.
Practice note
Keep authoring syntax short
Reusable forms and short tags let editors insert richer media without repeating fragile HTML inside article bodies.
