You wish to give a uniform visual style to all your site’s pages?
Using templates, the layout will be simplified and your Website will have a uniform appearance (no offset in the menus or the recurrent elements on your pages).
Moreover, if you wish to make graphic or contextual changes, simply change the template. The changes will then be made on all the pages, using this template.
Creating a new template:
To create a new template, click on the
icon in the template navigation (on the left) and click on "Add a new template". You can add a new template from the menu "Pages / Templates" and "Add a new template".A new page called "New template" will be added in the template navigation.
Create your template. It can, for example, be made up of images, color zones, dynamic menus and buttons. This composition will be saved as a template and may be used as a basis for the creation of pages on your site.
A colored marker will be automatically assigned to your template. When using this template on a page of your Website, the marker color will be added to your page, allowing you to easily identify the template used.
Integrating a template to your page:
Once your template has been created, you can apply it to your pages.
In the page being created, display the page properties. In the “Background” tab, click the “Use a template as background” box. Select your template and click “OK”.
The template will be applied to your page’s background. The color symbol of your template appears on the left side of your page name.
You cannot make changes directly to your template while pages are being created. Return to your template to rework it.
The changes will be reflected on all the pages using this template.
