Changing your website page layout

Altering a website page layout

The look and feel of any website is absolutely vital to how long your customers spend on your website.  The Venture CMS stacks each element on top of each other and now with our new feature, you can drag elements and position them to the left and right of each item too!

By removing the old column element and allowing editors and web masters to drag elements directly next to each other, this allows for a quicker and more fluid building experience.
 
Adjusting the column options
When dragging a new element to the page, our CMS will automatically divide the space each element has in equal spaces - so for example, if there are two elements next to each other, each will take up of the space on the page layout. If there are three elements next to each other, by default each will take up a third of the space - and so on. The space can be adjusted to your preference though if you want one element to have more space than another. Simply hover your mouse over the section with the elements in it and a blue divider(s) will appear. Click and hold the divider you want to move and drag it to the left or right. 

The dividers work on a twelve point snapping system to try and make the space between each element equal, but if you wanted custom distances between each, then all you have to do is repeat the process above, but when moving each divider, hold down the shift button whilst dragging it and you will be able to move the divider to exactly where you want it!

If you want to move a section of columns to another page, or copy the same element to the same web page, click the blue divider that appear when hovering over the section and then click the arrow to the top left of the element.  It will then give you the choice of which page on your website the element should be moved or copied to.

Now let's see how to add more pages to your website.
