Head
Head type The element to add to the item
  • Image from content
  • Calendar
Search fulltext When searching for images in the content, it is possible to extend the search to the full article / K2 item, not just its introduction section.
Limiting the search to the intro section of the content will limit server memory consumption and will be much faster

Keep space Keeps the space as if the additional element was existing but is missing for that particular item
Position The position of the head in relation to the remaining item body
  • left

Title
Element The element to use as title. The default is the article/K2 item title

Force one line Forces the title to show in one line only (no matter the resizing of the page)
It does not take into account the letter count max, but rather adds ... when it cannot fit on the line
HTML header tag The header tag (h1 .. h6) applied to the title
Text
Removed in v4.9
Font size reference
The font size in respect to the template used. The remaining of the item is based on that size

Wrap Wrap the text around the additional element, if the theme used allows it
