Create New Home Pages for Dynamic Master Pages

Dynamic master pages allow you to display differently styled pages to different users. Each master page needs its own home page, because this is where the user will login.

  1. Log into HorizonWeb as an administrator
  2. Click Admin > HorizonWeb Designer > Edit Content Pages.
  3. In the Select a Page list, click Home then click Edit Page.
  4. Click in the code box, then press Shift+A to select all and Shift+C to copy.
  5. Click Create New Page. A text box opens in the row below the Create New Page button. Type a name for a new home page, e.g. for a separately branded Furniture site, HomeFurniture, then click the green tick. The Select a Page box will contain your new page name and the code box will be blank.
  6. Click within the code box, then press Shift+V to paste.
  7. Click Save Page. The message Saved Successfully is displayed.
  8. The available master pages are listed in the Master Pages box. The master page, which the content page inherits from, is near the top of the code box, and will look similar to [M:Master]. Delete this line, then click on the home page's master page. The new master page reference will be inserted.
  9. Click Save Page. The message Saved Successfully is displayed.
