Example Scenarios:
I want to create a demo landing page for my user website and see how landing page can be customized. We need to add the following customizations in the portal to get it reflected in the user website.
Say I want to add title, promo text, documentation and custom URL to be added in the landing page. I have added Title and promo text. With help of header links, I have added documentation button and custom URL in the header and enabled search option in the portal.
Here is the example how my landing page looks in the portal
Heading color & Text
You can customize your landing page by adding the following sections
- Text section
- Columns of Text
- Custom HTML
- Text and Media
- Category section
Text Section:
I have added title, description text to the text section. I can add the required content to give some description to the landing page. This content can be aligned in left/right and center. If you want, you can add the title or title can be hidden using hide option. We can add "n" no.of text sections and can remove it if that section is not needed. There is also some formatting options provided for the description content.
Here's an example of how we can use the text section:
Column of Text:
I wanted to add some list of key features in my landing page. To customized this, I can prefer column of text option where I can add only my key features. I have added title and description. It also has the same option to add the multiple sections, remove the section and hide the title section. We have another option in column of text to add the set of icons/ font awesome icons and set the color to those icons. In this section also, contents can be aligned to left/right/center and drag and drop option is the one important enhancement which is available in this section, say I can easily swap or rearrange the first column in the fifth place using this drag option.
Here's an example of how we can use the column of text section.
Custom HTML:
Using Custom HTML, I can outline my own custom HTML code if none of the other options work for me. I have written my own piece of HTML code with the information I wanted to display in my landing page.
Here's an example of how we can use the custom HTML section:
The actual page will look like below
Text and media:
In addition to text section, i can create a nice essence to my landing page by adding relevant images specific to the content.
Here's an example of how i have customized the landing page with the text and media section
