You probably don't want to use the same layout on every page, so PageLines gives you the option to choose one for any specific page. To choose a layout, click the one you want then click "Save Meta Settings" at the top of the settings.

  1. Full Width: Posts occupy the width of your main page without sidebars
  2. Left Content, Right Sidebar: Posts occupy the left with a right sidebar
  3. Right Content, Left Sidebar: Posts occupy the right with a left sidebar
  4. Left Content, Dual Right Sidebars: Posts occupy the left with two smaller right sidebars

There may be times when you don't need a certain page section to appear on a specific page. Let's say that you have the Twitter bar enabled, but you don't want it to display on one page. Check the box next to "Hide TwitterBar" then click "Save Meta Settings" at the top of the settings.

  1. These sections make up the page's four template areas: Header, Template, Morefoot, and Footer
  2. These sections make up the page's content area including the content, wrap, and sidebars
