From Page Properties panel you may define the page appearance and restrict access to the current page. Here you may set the page title, page header image, page URL, encoding, number of columns and protect the page using password and mailing list restriction.

 

To open Page Properties click the Control Panel option at the top right of your website Admin and select Page Properties. All page properties are grouped in 3 sections.

 

The main page properties - Page Title and Page Layout - appear inside the top section of Page Properties panel. The page title is the text displayed at the top of your browser, just after the site title. It is used to identify the page in Manage Pages panel and plays an important role in the Search Engine Optimization process.

 

 

The different Page Layouts may feature a different position of the navigations (or no navigation - for Splash page layout), different page header area height and others. You may switch through the different page layouts without any content loss. Some content, though, might get hidden depending on the selected layout (for example, the navigation areas will get hidden with Splash page layout). Any hidden content will be displayed again as soon as you switch back to your original page layout.
