PRC Art Direction

Multi-slot featured images for Pew Research Center posts. Editors assign distinct images to named slots (A1–A4, XL, social) instead of stretching one featured image into every layout.

Package: @prc/art-direction Source: plugins/prc-art-direction/

Editors use the Art Direction sidebar and pre-publish checklist. Themes and blocks read slot data from the art_direction REST field or the PHP API. Maintainers own fallback, Yoast, and Distributor integrations.
