Layout settings

You can control certain aspects of how your website looks via the layout settings.

IMPORTANT: This area of the CMS is for experienced users only. Any changes you make can impact on your websites layout and behaviour. If you are not knowledgable and comfortable with website design it is strongly recommended you engage a professional designer.

The Membes team cannot assist with any changes or customisation to the website once it has been handed over to the Customer. Any changes (minor or major) to the website are the responsibility of the Customer, and the Membes team is not responsible for any website issues resulting from those changes. It is strongly recommended that Customers engage a designer independently to carry out any website customisations.

 

From the menu on the left select Advanced > Layout Settings.

Changing settings

Choose the required setting from the dropdown menus and click the Save button.

A description of each setting is below.

Navigation Type

Membes allows you to select from two navigations types, a standard menu and a mega menu.

A standard menu uses the top-level pages to create the main heading which sits on the navigation bar, with child page and sub page headings appearing when the top-level page link on the navigation bar is clicked.

A mega menu displays all child and sub page headings when the top-level item is clicked on the navigation bar.

Teaser Orientation

Your Home Page can be set to display Teasers for events, news, employment ads and forum topics. These are snippets of information encourage users to further explore your website.

Teasers can be set to display side by side on your Home Page, or stacked on top of each other. News and events teasers can also be set to display as an image carousel.
