RENAMING THE NEW PAGE

STEP 1: Rename the Page in the Menu

Recommend using one to two words for the page name

SETTING UP PAGE LAYOUTS

In the right side column you have many options under the "Insert" tab. Explore those options below.

FIRST 4 FEATURES

Text Box - Allows you to insert a text box on your page. You may need to grab the 10 gray dots to move it where you want it.

Images - Insert images from your computer, or select one from the internet or Google Drive.

Embed - Allows you to embed web addresses, Google Groups and you can embed content from another website.

Drive - Allows you to add anything that already exists in Google Drive to your page.

LAYOUTS

Google has created 6 different layouts for you to drag and drop onto your page.

To use one of the Layouts, you can click the one you want, then drag and drop it in the location on the page.

OTHER FEATURES

There are 15 additional features that you can use to build your page. These are not drag and drop. You will need to click the feature you want to use, it will show up at the bottom of your page and then you will need to drag it to the location you want to use it.

Click on the feature until you see a cluster of 10 little dots show up, click and drag that to move the feature.

ADDING TEXT

When using a duplicated page template you can remove the current text by highlight it and deleting it. You can then add your own text to the page.

Note that when you "Insert" a new Text Box or any text type of field into your page from the right side column, the default font will be Lato. You will need to select the Nunito Sans Light Font for all headers or Open Sans Normal for body or content text.

GOOGLE SITE THEMES

We want to be consistent with our company's style guide. Unfortunately, at this time, we are unable to make a company Google Site Theme for you to use so our solution is to provide this template for you. Hopefully in the future we will have the capability to create out own company Google Site theme with our fonts and colors.

What that means for you:

If you choose a different Google Site Theme in the Theme tab on the right side of this page, you will overwrite the fonts and colors we are using in this site template.
When you "Insert" a new Text Box or any text type of field into your page the default font will be Lato. You will need to select the Nunito Sans Light Font for all headers or Open Sans Normal for body or content text because the default font is Lato.
The font types we are using in this template are:
- Headlines: Nunito Sans Light size 18
- Body/Content/Button: Open Sans Normal size 11
The company colors we are using in this template are:
- Accomplished Blue (HEX - #0D436B) Primary color
- Neutral Light Gray (HEX - #DEE0E3) Contrast color
- Accent Blue (HEX - #00A0DD) Accent color
