Branch Content

This content type works well when added to a Branch Content section, which places the content at the bottom of every page in a given branch of the website. You may also see Branch Content sections labelled Left Column Branch if they are left over from a previous version of the website template.

How to create a Branch Content section:

  1. Create a new section titled Branch Content, one level below the landing page of your website. The section must have that exact title. Be sure to un-check the Show in Navigation check-box  before clicking Save Changes.
  2. Add content to this section. Any content item(s) added to this section will appear at the bottom of every page on your website. After saving and approving your content, run a publish of the entire branch to update the live website.
