  2. Display Title: Choose whether to display the title by selecting Yes or No from the dropdown menu.
  3. Page Summary Length: Enter the number of characters to display for the contest summary. Use 0 to hide the summary. Maximum is 320 characters.
  4. Layout: Choose a layout option for how your contests will appear. For available layouts, see the Contest List Widget Layouts article.
  5. Items to Display Per Page: Set the number of contests to display per page. This should be a multiple of 5.
  6. Allow Multiple Pages: Select Yes to enable pagination if there are more contests than the set number per page. Select No to show only the set number without pagination.
