Choosing Page Builder Templates | Communifire Documentation

Communifire comes with a variety of templates for displaying content, people, and menus. Each template has a unique design and works best for specific content types or situations. This wiki provides template recommendations for the Content List Widget , Navigation Widget , and People Widget .

Content List Widget

The Content List widget is a very flexible component you can use to highlight important content throughout your intranet. The Content List widget can be filtered in several ways to focus on specific areas and content. For example, you can create an "Announcements" widget that displays the most recent articles from a Company Announcements space, a "Support Dashboard" widget that displays open cases from the IT space, or a "Top Documents" widget that displays most viewed files from a Human Resources space.

Create visual interest

Content types such as articles, blogs, events, ideas, videos, and wiki pages have featured images. Encourage your content creators to use appealing, high quality images when they create these content types. Then use these templates to highlight featured images and grab users' attention.

Minimalist design

Content types such as cases, files, and discussions don't have featured images. Additionally, your content creators may not always add a featured image to content. Use a template with a minimalist design to display these content types or mixed content.

Displaying cases

Cases allow you to set up a robust ticket tracking system in any space. When displaying just cases, use the Case List Template to provide a detailed view of cases. Use multiple filtered widgets and the Case List template to build a support or project management dashboard.

Displaying events

When displaying just events, choose these templates that include the event date and location. Highlight important team meetings, upcoming deadlines, or conferences and activities. Help your people stay organized and on time.

Displaying photos

When displaying just photos, use the Carousel Photo Template . The slideshow cycles automatically, adding dynamic activity to your pages.

Navigation Widget

The Navigation widget is a flexible and powerful tool for building menus on Page Builder pages and in the header. You can link to specific content, personal tools, external sites, and more. You can create menus with the built-in icon set or upload your own image icons.

Select icons

Use your own images

Use these templates when you want to use your own images in menus. Upload your company assets to match menus to your company branding, or use your own stock photos.
