The Header Page refers to your global page header. This will most likely contain your
company logo. It can also contain text, among other things. The settings on this page are global.
This means that the settings you apply here are carried over to every page on your site. This makes
it easier for you to keep the look and feel consistent for all pages.
The following will walk you through setting up your header. Also make note that you do not have
to have a header.
Header Layout
The Header Layout section allows you to choose your header orientation. In short, it's
the overall look of your web site. There are 8 different layouts to choose from. The
following is a description of what each section represents.
- HEADER: This is your page header.
- INFO: This is your page content.
- MENU: Your navigation menu.
Make note of the 2 header layout options highlighted in pink. These layouts have no
MENU. If you choose either of these 2 options, you will not be able to click on your
"Login" menu option, which allows you to login to your site!
