Change a Layout & Add Another Node to It

Does your content need to be displayed in more than one large column on the page?  Or maybe you need to use the same content on several pages? Not a problem!  You can change the page layout and add additional text boxes to the page.

Step 1: Create Additional Content for Placement on the Main Page

  1. Create a new internal basic page and add the information to be added to page.
    1. Do not create a BASIC page. Internal basic pages are kept from search engine crawls and direct URL links.
  2. Save the page.
  3. Note or copy the node ID of the page you created.

Step 2: Access the Layout Editor on the main page

  1. Navigate to the page where you would like content to be added
  2. Click "Open Utilities" and find the layout button at the bottom of page.
