The DMS Data Entry Form: Sponsored Info

Sponsored Info articles are plugged on the sport category landing pages and the home page. The plug is in the right channel and has a white background and purple border. The plug contains short tease text, which is linked. Clicking on the link brings the user to the Sponsored Info article page. The Sponsored Info article page may be an external page, in which case the sponsored content editor (rather than the XML author) provides the URL.
