Apply layouts to pages

WordPress uses pages and posts for the main content of your site. Each page/post creates a place where visitors can go on your site. But ProPhoto layouts provide the look, layout, and extra module content for the pages of your site. Layouts are assigned to pages in the Visual Builder. Enter the Visual Builder from the front end on any page of your site and click on "Layouts." 

Layouts lists all the layouts you have created and the pages and page types to which they have been assigned. This is where all layout assignments are managed.

Apply layouts to page types

Page types

WordPress has a number of page "types." Assigning layouts to these page types allows for easy customization of groups of pages at once.

• the static homepage (if you have one; see the guide for setting up a static front page)
  
• Your main blog pages (not individual posts)
  
• every static page ("Pages > All Pages")
  
• each gallery page type (ProPhoto galleries, accessed directly)
  
• the 404 'not found' page (when visitors try to load an address that doesn't exist)
  
• All or special archive pages
  
  
  • monthly archive pages
  • category pages
  • tag pages
  • author posts pages
• search results page
  
  
• individual blog posts
  
• specific blog category pages
  
  
• other page types created by plugins. †

† not all WordPress plugins which create custom post types may work with this feature

Apply a layout to a specific page

It's very common to create individual layouts to control the layout and style of specific pages. In these cases, you will override the layout assigned as the default for all pages for specific pages. 

Some designs make use of layouts to create all the content seen on the page. In many of these cases, the content of your WordPress page will not be used at all - you can hide all the page content by deleting or not including the WordPress content module.
