Page Options: How do I change my page layout?

ANSWER:

Page Options: Customize Page Display

NOTE: Depending on administrator settings, this feature may not be available.

You can select a predefined page layout for the Course Content Home screen or any content folder in the Course Content tool. Page layout defines the following:

  • number of columns per page (one, two, or three columns)
  • link appearance (show icons and text, or show text only)
  • placement of icons in relation to the link text (left or above)
  • alignment of the link text within the column (left or centered)
  • width of the table controlling the page layout (wide or narrow)

Role(s) Needed: These instructions apply to Section-level Designers.

Step 1: Click on the Build tab.

Step 2: On the Course Content Home page, or after navigating to the desired folder, select the Page Options button, then Customize Page Display

Step 3: Under Layout Template, do one of the following:

  • Select one of the predefined layout templates. The template appears in preview mode.
  • Select Custom Layout and define your own layout settings.
    • From the Columns drop-down list, select the number of columns per page: one to eight.
    • From the Icon/Text drop-down list, select the link appearance: show icons and text, text only, or icons only.
    • From the Icon Placement drop-down list, select the place of icons in relation to the link text: left, right, or above.
    • From the Alignment drop-down list, select the alignment of the link text within the column: left, right, or centered.
    • From the Table Width drop-down list, select the width of the table controlling the page layout: wide or narrow.
