CMS Page Templates
What CMS page templates are available to create new pages with?
The following CMS page templates are available in the "Primary CMS Theme" theme:
- CMS Template 1 - Suggested Use: creating general pages
- CMS Template 2 - Suggested Use: creating different version of general pages
In which theme should I create my page? / Which theme should my page be assigned to?
In order to use one of the CMS page templates, you must create your page inside the theme where the desired CMS page template resides. You may later assign the page to another theme if needed.
See General Tips/Advice for CMS Users for more details.
What if I don't need all the sections used in a template?
Before using a CMS page template to create a page, determine if you’re going to need all the sections used in that template. Then, after using the template to create a new page, remove the sections from the page which aren’t needed BEFORE SAVING THE NEW PAGE. This prevents those sections from ever being created and we avoid cluttering the system with unused sections and modules.
Can I create a CMS page without using one of the CMS Page Templates?
See General Tips/Advice for CMS Users.
Working With Custom HTML Modules' Content Editors (WYSIWYG)
How do I replace placeholder ("lorem ipsum") or unwanted text content?
The content editor can be finicky. To replace placeholder or unwanted text, we recommend that you first click the “BLOCKS” button in the toolbar to reveal outlines surrounding block-level elements. Then, select the text you wish to replace and type in your desired text. Or, you can place your cursor at the end of the text you want to replace, add your desired text, and then select and delete the placeholder text preceding it. We do NOT recommend selecting all placeholder text in the editor and deleting it before you add your desired content. As a result you may accidentally erase necessary markup that the content depends on. It is always best to edit text elements one at a time rather than deleting everything you don’t want from the start.
Can I copy/paste from other sources?
Be very careful when copy/pasting text content from other sources into a Custom HTML module's content editor. When copying from an external document, take steps to ensure the text you are copying is plain text (as opposed to rich text.) When copying from a web page, make sure you are ONLY including text and not actual HTML tags (<p>, <br>, etc.) as this could result in unintended styling/format inconsistencies.
How do I change the appearance of text content (color, font size, etc)?
The “STYLE” dropdown in the toolbar can be used to edit the styling/appearance of content. Keep in mind that when you add a style from the dropdown, it does not overwrite other styles previously applied to the element. This allows greater flexibility in cases where you may need more than one syle applied, but you will need to remember to uncheck undesired styles after applying them.
Please refer to Style Management for examples of classes/styles you may apply.
Keep in mind that changing the appearance or styles of text should be done SPARINGLY - for the sake of consistency across pages, it is best to stick with the module's default styling whenever possible.
How do I add/edit a link?
The "insert/edit link" button in the toolbar is used to create and modify links:
- To create a new link, type your desired link text within the content editor, select it, and then click the "insert/edit link" button. This may be tricky if you're creating a new link next to an already-existing link. To do this, place your cursor at the end of the existing link's text and then press the right arrow key, so your cursor is outside the existing link. Then, type the new link's text, select it and click the "insert/edit link" button.
- To modify an existing link, click into the middle of the link text within the content editor, then click the "insert/edit link" button.
Note: Using proper link text is very important. For more details, see "Does it matter what I use for link text?" in General Tips/Advice for CMS Users.
How do I add/edit an image?
The "asset picker" button in the toolbar allows you to add images into the content editor. To modify an existing asset, click the asset and then click the "asset picker" button. Not all custom HTML modules were made with the intent to have an image placed in them. (Tip: If your default placeholder content did not contain an image, you should avoid adding one with this tool.)
Note: If you're including an image in a Custom HTML module, remember to consider the image alt text (which is editable through the "asset picker" button), and include a value when necessary. For more details, see "Do I need to update/include alt text for every image?" in General Tips/Advice for CMS Users.
How do I add a code snippet?
The "insert code snippet" button in the toolbar adds pre-made snippets of code into the content editor. Note that code snippets are primarily (but not always) used as a way to revert either the entire content of a Custom HTML Module to its default state, or to revert a part of its content to its original state. For example, if you accidentally delete the headline and byline at the top of the Custom HTML Module included in Section 1, you can use a code snippet to add it back in. In most cases you will not need to use code snippets unless you're attempting to "fix" a module (i.e. bring back original content which was since removed.)
IMPORTANT: Be very careful to only use code snippets that are intended for use in the specific module you’re editing. In most cases the name of the code snippet should partially or exactly match the name of the module you’re editing. A list of all code snippets that are intended for use within a module will appear in that module's parent section's documentation in the Section Guide. Do not use a code snippet when the section number in the title of the code snippet does not match the section you are currently editing. For example, if you're editing a section created from a section template labeled as "Section 1" you should only be using code snippets whose titles include "Section 1."
I've messed up my edits and would like to revert back to the original "lorem ipsum" placeholder content. Is there a way to do that?
Check to see if the module you're editing has a default code snippet available. The name of the snippet should match the name of your module (minus the given section name prefix.) If so, you may delete the entire content and then insert the appropriate code snippet. Some modules don't have default code snippets available, but they may have other snippets which could replace specific portions of your content.
Does it matter which levels of headings (H1, H2, etc) I use in my content?
Yes. For SEO and accessibility purposes, it is important that your page’s heading structure is hierarchical. This means that your page’s top heading needs to be an h1 heading, such as the headline in a "Section 1 - Copy" module.
You should also be careful to avoid skipping heading levels (i.e. using an h3 heading before an h2 has been used, etc.) If you need to change the appearance of a heading without changing the level, apply one of the heading classes from the content editor's "STYLE" dropdown (see Style Management for a list of these heading style classes.)
General Tips/Advice for CMS Users
How can I ensure that my content will be accessible to all users?
Be sure to follow all recommendations and instructions given in this guide, particularly the recommendations involving link text, image alt text, and heading levels. To learn more about accessibility, please see Accessibility for Radancy CMS Publishers.
Can I change the layout assignment of a page/section/module?
You should never change a layout assignment unless specifically instructed to do so in the relevant section's documentation found in the Section Guide. This will almost always lead to unintended results.
Can I add a module to a section?
You should never add a module to a section unless specifically instructed to do so in the relevant section's documentation found in the Section Guide. This will almost always lead to unintended results.
When I'm adding a section from the "Add New" section menu to a page, what should I name my new section?
To avoid future confusion, especially for other CMS users who may need to edit/update the content you're creating, naming conventions should be consistent throughout the site. When creating a section that you anticipate will only be used on the page you're adding it to, we recommend the following naming convention: [Page Name OR Abbreviated Page Name] - [Section Template Name] [Number (only include if you anticipate other sections of the same template will be added to the same page.)] For example, "Benefits - Full Width Copy" or "DEI - Full Width Copy 1." If you anticipate that the section you're creating may be used on other pages as well, we suggest giving it a name that summarizes its purpose/intent rather than its content or context (which may change or be updated later on.) For example, "Human Resources Job List" or "Annual Job Fair CTA."
Note: While you CAN change a section's name after creating it, you will NOT be able to change the names of the modules included in the section (which will, by default, include the ORIGINAL section name.) So we recommend that you carefully choose a good name for each section you create.
Can I increase/decrease the [vertical] spacing between sections?
In some cases, yes. To see if a section allows this modification, check its layout assignment. If (and only if) there is another layout with the same exact name but with a suffix of "-- large vertical margins" or "-- small vertical margins" you may switch the layout assignment to one of those layouts instead. For example, if your section has a layout assignment of "CMS Section -- Full Width" you may change the layout assignment to "CMS Section -- Full Width -- large vertical margins" for more vertical spacing or "CMS Section -- Full Width -- small vertical margins" for less vertical spacing.
Note that this should only be done when necessary - for instance, when you have sections that are closely related to each other in terms of appearance and/or content, and thus require less space between them. Note also that changing a layout assignment per the directions above will not affect spacing on mobile size screens.
Can I create a CMS page without using one of the CMS Page Templates?
Yes, but this is not recommended as creating a page without using a CMS Page Template will require you to select a page layout. To avoid selecting the incorrect layout, we recommend using one of the available CMS Page Templates, in all cases.
If you are looking to create a "blank" page, see the next question.
How do I create a "blank" page?
To create a blank page, click the "Add Page" button in the "CMS Primary Theme" theme and select the "CMS Template 0 -- Blank" page template.
How do I know whether to use a section variant with a colored background or not?
The first section on the page - or the first section on the page after the hero banner, if one is present - should not have a colored background. Following this section, you may choose to use section variants with colored backgrounds to visually separate content - but keep in mind that this effect works best when used sparingly. For the best visual appearance and consistency across the site, no more than a third of a page's content should have a colored background.
Can I apply a color/gradient background to my page?
If your page is assigned to the "CMS - Content Page" Layout, you may assign it to the "CMS - Content Page -- with BG" layout instead, to apply a light gradient background to the page. At this time, it is the only background available for CMS pages.
Which theme should my page be assigned to?
This depends on the page's [intended] content. Currently there is only one - pages should be assigned to the "CMS Primary Theme" theme.
DO NOT assign any CMS pages to the "Default Theme (GST)" theme. This theme is enabled for CMS due to system requirements, but it is NOT intended to be used as a theme for CMS Pages.
Do I need to update/include alt text for every image?
Every time you add or replace an image file, you should consider whether to include alt text for the image. In some cases, such as when the image is considered descriptive and not essential to the page content, alt text may be left blank. For more details, please see this alt text decision tree. Not only are these considerations essential in making the site accessible to non-visual users, it will also improve SEO.
Does it matter what I use for link text?
It matters a lot. To make links accessible to all users, use link text that would make sense to users if taken out of the surrounding context. For example, "learn more about our benefits" is acceptable, whereas "click here" or "learn more" are not. This is important in all situations, but be particularly careful when adding/editing links inside Custom HTML modules, as you'll have full control over what text is included in a link.

Many might think that the financial services industry is primarily numbers and math, but I believe we are a people business. The people at Alter Domus make it what it is, and we have some of the best in the entire industry.

Alter Domus were fully supportive through my studying path, providing study support in the way of study fees and study leave, as well as some flexible working towards nearer each exam to help me manage with work/life (and exam!) balance.
