Add custom pages using pre-built templates

You don't have to be a designer to create the pages you want. You now have creative freedom using a variety of great new components that you can mix and match.

With the new page builder, you can create as many different pages as you want, such as several Home pages or special landing pages. It gives you all the tools you'll need to refresh the look and feel of your site and help gives that WOW effect that you can be proud of. For the setup guide, see Create and Use a Template Page.

Here is a list of new components we've created for you.

Playlists

The new Theming Feature Set gives your playlists an attractive new design with more options. You can choose to have 2 to 4 thumbnails (shown above) as well as control the number of seconds that pass before the new set appears. Very useful for presenting something ‘fresh’ such as ‘Most viewed’ or ‘Recently added”.

Clickable images 

Attract your users with engaging images that redirect them to any web page of your choice. 

Footer 

No longer just an HTML box! The new and improved footer configuration allows anyone to create an attractive new footer without needing to touch a code. 

Header 

The new navigation bar has a slim & sleek look. You now have the option to have a 'clean' navbar (shown in image above) limited to only one or two items such as a call-to-action button and a custom logo.

Hero Unit

You can select from two types of navbars: Player Carousel (see example in image above), Text & Counter (see example below), or you can decide not to have a hero at all.... the choice is yours!

Text & Counter hero

News Items 

Have a playlist of articles in the form of a carousel. Each image on the carousel opens to an article, as shown below.

Plain text 

Use this tool to feature content such as a ‘welcome’ message, an introduction to your site, or a content policy. You control the color of the text and the background.

Registration

This component makes registering quick and easy for users. By clicking the "Register" button, the registration page opens on the side of the page for easy completion (as shown below). No need to navigate elsewhere!

Collection of channels

This feature gives users an easy way to explore and access channel collections. Clicking 'See All' will take users to your channel collection page. If you don't have any channel collections yet, you can set them up in the ChannelCollections module.

Banner & CTA

This component provides a banner with text, a call-to-action button and background image. 

That's not all ... check out these other features!
