0:03 So next we'll look at HTML content blocks and page layouts. So I think many of you will know about the ability to utilize different page layouts within your infigo system.
0:23 So what this basically does, it gives you the ability to choose from a list of layouts that we have available on the page and I'll demonstrate this in a moment.
0:35 Select one of those layouts and then you can add new elements to that particular page into various different containers. So for example, you can add a shopping cart element into the top container or something like that and it will add it to that page.
0:51 Now, this is useful as a time-saving approach because what will happen is when you choose a page layout on a product page or something like that, that layout is shared amongst all pages of the same type in the vast majority of cases.
1:08 So, for example, if you start playing around with the layout of a product page or a content page or something like that, that layout will then apply to all of the product pages or all of the content pages.
1:22 So you can just perfect one of those and then it will utilize it again and again and again saving you some time.
1:34 So let's have a little look at that initially before we do anything else. So I'll just play with my homepage a little bit just to show this.
1:48 So when you're logged in as an administrator, if you look on the bottom left of your screen and your end users won't see this, it's only if you're an admin, you'll see these two little buttons here.
2:01 The one on the right will cover later on, the one on the left is to do with the Layout Manager.
2:06 And again, there's more content on this on the academy of your new additional content context. What you can do is choose from this predefined list of layouts that we give you.
2:19 Some of them are pre-populated. Some of them are just kind of blank ready for you to actually do something with.
2:27 So if I go to, I changed this to one column C, for example, which I don't think I'd utilize much elsewhere.
2:40 You'll see we've got a certain format of things included. And if I go on that option there again and go to toggle layout mode on the right-hand side, we can see what elements are contained on that page.
2:53 So I've got the header module, which is controlling my header showing. If And I can modify that as and when I need, if I need to put new elements on which will then propagate to all similar page types.
3:12 So for example, if I want a different footer, I can go here and say select the container I want to put the footer in, which is the footer container.
3:24 Select the module I want to enter, so in this case I'll do another type of footer that that we've got, and then add the module to Container.
3:36 That adds our secondary footer. I can get rid of the original, and that will then propagate to all of the same page types.
3:48 Now, another way in which you can use this is in conjunction with HTML content blocks that we provide. So, empathy content blocks.
4:01 So, I don't think this is massively widely known to be honest. So, if I just go to the editable content area, if I scroll down, you'll see here I have a range of HTML content blocks and the description there is that these are a multi-content block which can be used for anything and you can create additional
4:26 ones as well I believe. So these are in everyone's system and they're empty to start with and you can populate these with rich text, with code, with content templates, whatever you see fit, but you can then utilize them in your page layouts.
4:52 Okay, so I've gone on one of my product pages here, and in my example, if I scroll down to the bottom, you can see there that I've got a module included in my layout, which is just done by going to the same thing we've talked about, so choosing a container and then choosing one of the related modules
5:11 , so our HTML content block, and then adding that in. So then whatever you've put in that customized area will then be automatically propagated onto every single instance of that page type, so if you put one into a product page template, the content will be shown every single time.
5:31 So if you've got some boilerplate text or something which you want to put in over and over again, terms and conditions, delivery instructions, stuff like that, one way in which you can save time is by doing it this way and it also means that if you need to update it, you only have to update it in one
5:46 location rather than and repeatedly updating it in various different places.
