Ability to customize: image, content type (e.g. Event, News), title, content, call to action (e.g. Register, Read More), URL

In the comment, should content-type be a dropdown or a CharField?

Update:
Currently, I have added it as a CharField.

@HamzaIbnFarooq I was considering both these options, too. Let's keep the CharField so there's maximum flexibility.
