One Column Full

The upgraded One Column (Full) layout gives you more options:

  • Width and alignment of content section
  • Styled buttons
  • Background colours
  • Background image (NB – use carefully, text can be difficult to read as the screen width varies)
  • Options to remove top & bottom spacing (useful when you have two rows using the same background colour – it reduces the gap between the two)

Image + Text/Video (Full width, 50%)

A lot more options on this layout:

  • Image or video
  • Image / video left or right
  • Image 50% or 60% width
  • Image to browser edge, or site width
  • Styled buttons
  • Background colours
  • Options to remove top & bottom spacing (useful when you have two rows using the same background colour or when you have image going to browser edge – it reduces the gap between the two)

One Column

Legacy: This is the original, simplistic One Column layout. We’d recommend using the One Column (Full) alternative, leaving this to just be used for legacy content on older pages.

Two Column

Legacy: Nice and simple, two column layout. This is also a legacy layout, but could still be useful.
