Content Image Lead

Install a typed Payload CMS content block with a full-width lead image, two-column copy, and CTA. The CLI wires it into your Pages layout and renderer.

v0.1.1Page blockContent familyContent section

New in 0.1.1 Version the current component and shared source, including explicit localization semantics where applicable.

Installation

npx payload-components add content-image-lead

What it installs

Copies 3 source files into your project:

  • src/blocks/shared/contentFields.tsshared
  • src/blocks/ContentImageLead/config.ts
  • src/blocks/ContentImageLead/Component.tsx

…and makes 4 edits to wire the block into your project:

Registers the blocksrc/collections/Pages/index.ts
Maps the renderersrc/blocks/RenderBlocks.tsx
Regenerates typessrc/payload-types.ts
Regenerates the admin import mapsrc/app/(payload)/admin/importMap.js
contentFields.ts is shared source for this component family. Components that install the same path reuse that local copy, and re-running an install never overwrites a copy you have changed.

Re-running the CLI install detects existing source and wiring, then records install state in .payload-components/state.json.

Content model

The eyebrow, title, and paragraphs fields come from the shared Content family base (src/blocks/shared/contentFields.ts); the image upload and CTA links are specific to this variant.

Each item in paragraphs carries:

Usage

Add the block to a page. In the Payload admin, open (or create) a Page and add the ContentImageLead block to its layout.
Fill the content. Complete the fields from the content model above — the component ships sample content you can start from.
Publish. Save and publish the page; the block renders through RenderBlocks on the frontend, fully typed — no extra wiring.

Your project must already expose components.json, src/payload.config.ts — the surfaces patched by payload-components add. The CLI verifies this against the support matrix before touching anything.
