Vertical Series List
This module presents Storylline packages of links in a more compact, vertical design, positioned in the article rail. At it's simplest, it merely restyles a Storyline embed added to a Presto story. It's versatility lies in asset replacement: Confgure it on an image, an embed, a list or a chapter header.
Article links will be transformed to relative links so users won't hit paywalls on news sites they don't subscribe to.
