Layout Manager

Section under construction

The layout manager is used by designers to create any number of theme layouts which can be used throughout the wiki.

For best results, we recommend Firefox web browser when working in the layout manager.

Available Layouts

This panel appears on the left of the Layout Manager and shows the hierarchical list of all theme layouts defined in your wiki:

There's a lot more to this panel than meets the eye! Let's get started...

Toolbar

Icon

Task

Notes

 

Save

Reload

Reloads the selected layout from the server, clearing any unsaved changes.

Unknown macro: {menuicon}

Unknown macro: {menuicon}

Delete

New

Create a new layout based on the selected layout.

 

Duplicate

Duplicate the selected layout. This creates a copy of the selected layout and attaches it to the same parent as the selected layout.

Switch between the currently selected layout and the previously selected layout.

 

Parent

Select the parent layout for the currently selected layout.

 

Previous

Select the previous sibling layout.

 

Next

Select the next sibling layout.

Hierarchy

So, why do we have hierarchical layouts? Well, that's such an important feature of Theme Builder that it's got it's own page: Layout Hierarchy

If you haven't already done so, read that page otherwise you'll be freaked out when layouts are affected by settings in their parent layout!

Drag-and-Drop

You can restructure the layout hierarchy by simply dragging and dropping a layout on to another layout. Remember, that makes the layout inherit some or all settings from it's new parent and in doing so can make it look completely different.
