Getting Started

Global pages and snippets can be maintained by administrators in Administration -> Custom Pages -> Overview.

Space pages and snippets require additional module installation on space level and can be maintained by space administrators in Space Settings Dropdown -> Custom Pages.

After selecting a target for your new page as for example the Top Navigation, you have to select a content type. On space level the available content types are limited for security reasons.

Most content types provide the following setting which may vary between different targets:

Templates

The custom pages module provides a simple template mechanism based on twig. Templates can be maintained under Administration -> Templates.

Note: In order to use template based pages or snippets on space level, you'll have to allow the layout for spaces within the general settings of the template.

Layouts

When creating a new template based page or snippet, you have to select a layout template which is used as the base layout of your page. Usually a layout will consist of static elements as for example a headline, subheadline and container elements.

You can add the following static elements to your layout:

A very simple layout could look like the following:

<style>
 // Some additional styling 
<style>

<div class="row">
    <div class="col-md-12">
        <div class="panel panel-default">
            <div class="panel-heading">
                {{ headline }}
            </div>
            <div class="panel-body">
                <div class="abstract">
                    {{ abstract }}
                </div>
                <div class="abstract">
                    {{ content }}
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

With a simple text element as headline, a HumHub Richtext as abstract and a container element which allows multiple container items.

Container

A container element can contain one or multiple container items. Container items themselves are based on templates managed under Administration -> Tempaltes -> Container. A container element can either act as container of inline or block elements or just allow a single element. Furthermore a container element can restrict the allowed types of container items.

The following example shows a simple quotation container element with two text elements text and info:

<blockquote>
    {{ text }}
</blockquote>
<span>{{ info }}</span>

Another container example with a figure and floating text based upon a image image element and figcaption text element:

<figure class="pull-left">
    {{ image }}
</figure>
<figcaption>{{ figcaption }}</figcaption>

<p> {{ text }}</p>
