Starting in Spring 2021 we began transitioning Cascade websites to use the new Basic Template.

Cascade uses templates for creating pages and our original setup of cascade used a separate template for each page layout (for example: Second Level Page, Second Level Page – faq, Second Level Page – stafflist….)

The Basic Template contains multiple components (layouts), so there is no longer a need to use a separate template for each type of webpage. With the Basic Template you can create a typical content page or you can create a page with an opening paragraph, an faq and a video.

• Components can be used in any order
• Components can be used multiple times.
• Each component is added to the page by adding a new row and selecting the type of component.
• To add a row:
  • press the green plus sign to the right of the Row section
  • use the radio buttons to select the component
  • the edit area will automatically populate with the fields needed for the selected component

The Basic Template contains the following components:

• Text Editor
• Text Editor with Of Note
• Of Note
• BrightCove Video
• FAQ
• Tilelist
• Block Grid
• Staff Listing
• Page Header
