[Autogenerated] hi And this lesson, I'm
gonna show you howto update the page
layout. We're here in our portal site, and
we are on the what's new at Elevator
Skills page. There's not much on this
page, so we're going to start working with
the layout so we can add Maur Web parts at
more things to it. We only see that we
have comments and our title block. So the
first thing we need to do is go over here
to the upper right corner and click on
edit. We're gonna click the edit button,
and our page now opens up for editing. It
may not look like it did much, but notice
this little grey circle with a plus sign.
And what that does is allow me to add a
new section, as you can see there. Now,
this line down here allows me to add a new
Web part. It's a little bit different.
This is a section unto itself, but its
only one column, and that's not
necessarily what I want. So we're going to
click on the little plus sign here to add
a new section and you see have different
section layouts. I'm going to choose this
+12 columns and you can see and now have
to areas two sections where I can add new
Web parts. Let's go ahead. Let's scroll
down a little bit more. I want to add
another new section. This time I'm going
to add a 1/3 right column. Actually, you
know what? Let's do the 1/3 left. Here we
go. And then we're gonna add one more
section here, which is simply a one column
section. Yeah. Now, if I wanted to move
these, let's say that I wanted to put this
one somewhere else. I can go here and
hover over the move section button. And if
I hold down my left mouse button and drag,
you see how that line gets darker up with
the top two section divider. I can keep
dragging this down until I get it to where
I want. I'm gonna put it here and when I
let go See that? Now my 1/3 left column is
up at the top and my two columns are below
and I still have the single column here at
the bottom. Now, if I want to get rid of
one of these Let's say I want to get rid
of this single column. I could just go
here and choose to delete that section,
and I get a little warning. Am I sure that
I wanted to leak this section and
everything in it? Yes, I do. So I'm gonna
get rid of that. Now I take a look at this
two column section and I want to change
the lead. I want to switch it. I want to
make it a 1/3 right column so I can come
back over here to my little icons and I
can click on Edit Section. The section
panel opens up over here on the right, and
I can change my layout options. I want
this 1 1/3 right? That's the one I want.
It's clothes. That air we go. That's
looking good. And let's open it up again
for editing. I can change the section
background. See this? I have different
colors. Have a very light gray, a little
bit darker, grey or ah, very dark grey.
I'm gonna go with a light gray for this
one. Closed a section panel and I think
that is good. I think everything is just
the way I want it. So I'm gonna update.
And now you don't see anything here. And
that's because we didn't put anything in
those sections, so it doesn't look like
anything has happened. But if I go to edit
it again, my section's air still they're
ready for me to go. I just have to put
something in him. So now you know how to
edit the page layout on a SharePoint.
Paige, Thanks for listening, and I'll see you next time.
