[Autogenerated] Hi. We're here today to
talk about communication sites in
SharePoint. Now, without a doubt, the team
site is the most popular type of
SharePoint site, but communication sites
are pretty awesome. Well, communication
sites are designed to present or share
information with others in a visually
interesting way. Things like an idea or
information about a topic. You can also
use them to highlight an item like a
product or service. There are two types of
communication site templates, a topic and
to showcase. There's also a blank template
so that you can design your own
communication site. Now I've created a
sample of each of these. Let's start with
the topic site. This is straight out of
box. All of this is Microsoft, and you can
see there's a lot of features in here.
It's a little bit different than our
standard team site. Let's also go ahead
and look at the showcase site. Template is
well, it even has an image gallery. Now.
Communication sites have pretty much the
same features as a team site there just
laid out differently. Now each site has a
navigation bar. You can see right up here
at the top with the home. Each site also
has a document library. Now they don't
have any documents in this. But remember,
this is the temple. IT it has a link to
the pages site contents, which once we're
here really doesn't look any different
from site contents on a team site. Let's
go ahead and look at that topic site
again. Again. Navigation at the top
Document library. Now there are gonna be
documents in here. No, there are not. But
again, pages insight content. The topic
site has the news web part where you can
add news items. It also has an events web
part, so you can add calendar events and
again the document library web part so
that you can see the individual documents.
Let's take a look at the showcase site
again, Like I said, no visible web parts
other than the hero web part, which is
with all of these are and the Image
Gallery. But of course, like any other
SharePoint site, you can edit the site and
add those web parts as well. Now, let's
quickly take a look at a couple of these
that I created. This is a topic site.
Welcome to L a Bari skills. This would be
our home page for new employees. We have
our hero web part here and all the little
highlighted sections, which will take us
two different pages. Give us information
are welcome message. We have some news
items and even an event, and you can see
the document web part showing what's in
our document library. Let's take a look at
this showcase site that I created. I
created this site to showcase the training
that's available. We have offers 3 65
training Windows, 10 Excel and Random
Image Gallery with pictures of computers
and other types of things like that. Now
what I've done is this image as well as
this link down here and here is, well,
this whole panel is one big link, and I
linked it so that when I click on it, it
takes me to Microsoft Stream, where I have
the Microsoft 3 65 training videos, and
people can go ahead and watch those and
the same thing with Windows 10. It will
take me to the Windows 10 Channel. Lastly,
let's take a look at the Image Gallery in
the Image Gallery is simply exactly what
it says an image gallery. And if you click
on one, see it gives you that full screen
and you can use the arrows to go back and
forth through the images. So now you know
a little bit more about communication
sites in SharePoint. That's it for this
lesson. Thanks for listening, and I'll see you next time.
