Page Types

What is a Page Type?

Page Types are templates that standardize how common topics appear on your website. Think of Page Types like the rooms in a house. Every room includes basic items like walls, doors, and lightswitches, but each room is designed for a specific purpose. Some rooms are larger and allow for more customization, while others are smaller and standardized. You can expect to find items in some rooms, like a stove in a kitchen or a bathtub in a bathroom.  

This is the same way Page Types work on your website. Every Page Type includes core elements, such as a page title, main navigation, and breadcrumbs. Some Page Types offer more flexibility, while others are standardized. For example, a Landing Page Page Type provides opportunities for customization, while a News Page Type requires a title, publication date, and body content in a fixed structure.
