Aptly named, the home page is&nbsp;<strong>home<\/strong>&nbsp;to all of your other pages (i.e. landing and content pages). If we think about a website\u2019s organization like a book, the home page is like the book cover and serves as the parent under which your other pages are nested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph body-text\">The homepage has many of the same options as any other page on your website, but there are a couple unique options that are only available on the homepage. Depending on the theme you are using, to add a featured image to the homepage, you&#8217;ll need to use the <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/block-catalog\/design-and-layout\/program-hero\/\">Program Homepage Hero<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/block-catalog\/design-and-layout\/school-hero\/\">School Homepage Hero<\/a> blocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading body-text-heading\" id=\"pages\">Pages<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph body-text\">Pages contain&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/content-editor\/managing-content\/\">many of the same content fields<\/a>&nbsp;as posts, but consist of static, informational content and typically compose the majority of content on your website. For example, a Home page or an About page would display informational content that changes infrequently. It is not possible to add categories or tags to a page. Pages can be organized into pages and subpages, so the relationship between pages is&nbsp;<em>hierarchical<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading body-text-heading\" id=\"page-types\">Page Templates<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph body-text\">There are four different page templates: <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/content-editor\/pages-posts\/page-templates\/#landing\">Landing Page<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/content-editor\/pages-posts\/page-templates\/#default\">Default<\/a> (content page), <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/content-editor\/pages-posts\/page-templates\/#chaptered\">Chaptered Page<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/content-editor\/pages-posts\/page-templates\/#parent-child\">Parent-Child Page<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/content-editor\/pages-posts\/page-templates\/#post-filter\">Post Filter<\/a>. These page types can be set under the \u201cTemplate\u201d section of the Page tab of the inspector panel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph body-text\">For information on how to use the available templates and some page models, refer to our <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/content-editor\/pages-posts\/page-templates\/\">Page Templates page<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gu-block gu-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"570\" height=\"547\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/525\/2022\/02\/template.png\" alt=\"Page template section of the inspector panel.\" class=\"wp-image-1632\" style=\"width:315px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/525\/2022\/02\/template.png 570w, https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/525\/2022\/02\/template-300x288.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/525\/2022\/02\/template-421x404.png 421w, https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/525\/2022\/02\/template-516x495.png 516w, https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/525\/2022\/02\/template-457x439.png 457w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading body-text-heading\" id=\"posts\">Posts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph body-text\">Posts contain&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/content-editor\/managing-content\/\">many of the same content fields<\/a>&nbsp;as pages, but consist of web content that is usually date specific and can be featured on pages, such as news articles and announcements. You&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/content-editor\/managing-content\/creating-deleting-recovering\/#creating\">create posts<\/a>&nbsp;in much the same way as pages. It is possible to add&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/content-editor\/categories-tags\/\">tags and categories<\/a>&nbsp;to posts which will allow editors to filter through publications and specify which posts appear on pages. WordPress also automatically generates&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/content-editor\/archives\/\">archive pages<\/a>&nbsp;that serve as a running feed of posts with a particular category or tag. Posts are ordered by date, so the relationship between posts is&nbsp;<em>chronological<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph body-text\">Posts are often used in conjunction with the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/block-catalog\/widgets\/news\/\">News <\/a>or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/sites.georgetown.edu\/1789-documentation\/block-catalog\/informational\/featured-stories\/\">Featured Stories<\/a>&nbsp;block to display relevant posts on other pages. For example, you might periodically create posts profiling new research by faculty in your department or create posts that announce new and relevant information for your website users. These posts could then be displayed on your homepage or another relevant page using one of the aforementioned blocks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Home Page A home page is the face of your website \u2013 it\u2019s often the first page people will encounter when they visit your site.
