Cygnet: Recreating the Demo - About Us Page

Introduction

The About Us example page demonstrates how you can create a beautiful page with the Cygnet theme. Here is some information to help you replicate this page as it appears in the demo.

Theme Override Options

The About Us page is a regular Page. To recreate the layout the way it appears in our demo, enter menu-about-us in the Page Suffix field in the Gizmos page inside the Cygnet theme settings. This suffix is tied to a class in the demo.less file that sets the page up so it appears the way it does in the demo.

In order for this to work, you should have the Page Suffix option set to On in Admin > Cygnet > Gizmos. You will likely need to create a theme override specifically for the page before assigning that suffix to it. For more information on creating theme overrides, visit our Gantry Documentation.

You will also want to assign the override to the About Us page via the Assignments tab in the Theme Settings.

Mainbody

The page's content body is set in the About Us post. You will find the content used in the post below.

<h3>Cygnet, the Powerful Theme</h3>

<p>Efficiently unleash cross-media information without cross-media value. Quickly maximize timely deliverables for real-time schemas. Dramatically maintain clicks-and-mortar solutions without functional solutions.</p>
