FrontPage banners let your users know where they are.

As your site grows, it will become hard for you to keep track let alone your visitors. One way to help matters is to use Front page Banners.

You may have noticed that every page on this site tells you where you are by looking at the title on each page - in my case directly under the banner with a dashed blue line. The title is displayed with H1 which in turn has been styled with CSS

The HTML code that FrontPage uses for banners is below:


<!--webbot bot="Navigation" S-Type="banner" S-Orientation="horizontal" S-Rendering="text" -->

This is done simply by the click of a button.

However the Page Banner displays the page title of your page. So if you have left the defaults like new_page_1/2/3 and so on, that's what you will see. Fear not you can overcome this easily too. Rename pages.

To include the page banner do the following.

Place the cursor where you want the page banner to appear then go to insert/Page Banner.

Now each time you want the page banner to appear you just follow the instruction above. The other use is to incorporate the feature into a front page  template. That way you only configure it once and each page changes when viewed. This method can in the long run be by far the quickest.

For the frontpage banner to work though you need to have set up a frontpage navigation structure. Once this has been done your pages will show the title wherever you put a page banner.
