In Layouts, you design the overall appearance of the pages on your website. Layouts are a critical part of your website, and the design settings that you put in place play a crucial role in the success of each and every page on your website.
On your layouts, you include images, links, and other items that appear on web pages throughout your website. In combination with style sheets, layouts provide the basis of your website's design and allow you to create a consistent look and feel for your web pages.
In addition, you use layouts to define where you can place content on web pages and templates. You include content placeholder panes in the layouts, and after you associate the layout with web pages and templates, you can insert parts in the panes to display content on your website.
Warning: We strongly recommend that you limit full supervisor rights for Layouts to a select group of users. General users should not access layouts. Any change can affect multiple web pages. We recommend that only users knowledgeable in all areas of website design and the program perform tasks in Layouts.
