Public front page

What is a public front page?

mapt_public_front_page.png

In the Webpage builder, you can create individual project pages, which will all be collected under one public website, called a public front page. There are two different types of front pages that you can use within the Webpage builder module: standard and customized.

  • The standard front page (pictured above) shows the individual project pages presented in a grid. You can modify the header text and image.
  • A customized front page is a page you have created using page elements – you therefore have much more input over its look. Individual pages are shown in a carousel or on a map. For an example of this type of page, please see this link.
How to access your organization's front page

Go to Manage teams and click Team settings next to your team's name. You can find the link to your front page under the Front page tab. This is the link that you can also share with the public. If you want, we can also create a shorter and more memorable customized URL for you. For more information, please take a look at this article.

 

Editing the STANDARD front page

1. Go to Manage teams and click Team settings next to your team's name. 

2. The name/header for the page comes from the team name, which you can edit under the Admin tab. 

3. Under the Front page tab, you can give the page a description. To change the image used in the header, we recommend first uploading it to Materials, and then copying the URL that can be found in the editing window. Paste the URL to Header image URL.

 

Editing the CUSTOMIZED front page

1. Create the front page like you would create a 'normal' page.

2. Go to Manage teams and click Team settings next to your team's name. 

3. Go to the Front page tab and choose the page from Choose page to display as front page.

 

Frequently asked questions

Q: I'm creating separate pages for the same project in different languages, will these all be displayed in the same view?

A: Don't worry, the service will automatically detect the default language used by the viewer's browser, and will list only the pages that are in that language. The viewer can change to another language from the drop-down menu at the bottom of the website.  
 
Q: How can I change the order in which the pages are displayed on the front page?
 
A: Currently, the pages are organized in the order in which they were published. The first page listed is therefore the one published last. To change the order, simply re-publish the page you want to appear on top. 
 
Q: Why can't I see my page in the Ongoing projects? It's only listed under All?
 
A: This is most likely because you have chosen a visibility start date for the page but no end date. Add an end date and the page should appear under the Ongoing category.
 
Q: Can I get questionnaire cards to show on the front page?
 
A: This is currently not possible, but you can create a page with an embedded link to the questionnaire, which will direct people browsing the website to it.
