Page Templates

There are various page templates for specific sections with a specific function. When creating new pages, the page template you select will depend on the section you are working on.

For example, if you are working with a Langara Department section (see: http://langara.ca/departments), there are a set of page templates specific to departments, that can be found under: New –> Default –> Department.

Template optionsTemplate options can be found under the main menu: New

For Offshoots (Alumni, Library, International Education, etc.), there are another set of page templates that can be found under: New –> Offshoots.

And so on…

Below is a summary of all the page templates that are available. Be sure to select the appropriate template. The Default set of templates will likely work for most situations, but if you are not sure which template to use, please contact your Communications Officer.
