Portal Page Structure

Overview

Page Template

Page Templates control the content and appearance of the top, sides, and bottom of portal pages. These elements may include a top banner, a side navigation bar, or disclaimer text. Community Leaders specify the Page Template for their community. Each community can use a different page template to create a unique appearance.

Layout Template

Page Layouts provide shells for arranging gears on a portal page. Page Layouts are comprised of "layout regions," or columns. Community Leaders and Community Members can arrange the content of their portal pages by selecting a page layout and placing gears within the layout regions.

Gear Title Template

Gear Titles provide a decorative title and border for gears appearing in a portal page. The Title area may contain an Edit control for Community Members to personalize the gear.
