Special Pages

Special pages are provided to make adding content easier.

Meeting location -- this will let you embed a map to the meeting site.  It also allows you to have text of your choice above the map

Calendar - this shows the chapter's calendar, normally a TeamUp calendar.  You can put content above the calendar

Contact Page

News - a news manager is available -- it is useful if you want to create a blog-like feature, it is also useful for anything ressembling a news feed.  Its advantage is that you don't have to create and format hugely complicated pages -- just create a lot of much shorter announcements.

Feeds - some themes have special pages for embedding facebook and twitter feeds.  If you need this and your theme does not offer it, contact the WebTeam -- we can create these

Other templates

Some special pages require special templates.  These are chosen as page options using  "Page Options +".  Other templates enable special formatting for home pages, or pages without sidebars.

Themes provide one or more templates...think of these as special ways to display your pages

There is always a default template that should be used unless you tell it otherwise.

Meeting location -- this will let you embed a map to the meeting site.  It also allows you to have text of your choice above the map

Calendar - this shows the chapter's calendar, normally a TeamUp calendar.  You can put content above the calendar

Special home pages -- most themes do not have these, but a few do -- a good example is the template -- it has at least 5 home page options.

To use a special template, go to Page Options + and pick from the available templates for your theme.
