Creating and editing custom HTML templates

PreviousCreating a custom homepage using the safe editorNextSimple customisation of Header, Body, and Footer

Last updated 1 month ago

Only users with the following permissions are able to add HTML to the registry header or footer:

  • 'Allow user to manage and change templates'

  • 'Allow user to manage and change the home pages'.

Notes:

  • You will need intermediate web skills using HTML or CSS to add custom HTML to the registry header or footer

  • See for editing the above user permissions (Administrators only).

Overriding templates can have unexpected consequences - such as disabling actions, breaking layouts or preventing users from accessing your registry. Only make changes if you are confident in what you are doing.

Users with the appropriate permissions can use custom HTML to personalize the registry's header and footer.

How to create and edit custom HTML templates

  1. Select 'Site page tools' from the dashboard side panel.

  1. Select 'Edit templates'.

  1. Select 'Create New Template'.

  1. From this page, the following options can be adjusted:

  • 'Name': The template name that will be overridden

  • 'Is active': Whether or not the template being created will be currently active upon submission. Inactive templates are only visible to template editors when previewing templates

  • 'Description': A field to describe the template's purpose, location, etc.

  • 'Content': The HTML content to be used in the template upon submission.

  1. Select 'Submit'. The changes will be immediately visible.

Previewing or deleting a draft template

  1. Select 'Site page tools' from the dashboard side panel.

  1. Select 'Edit templates'.

  1. If you wish to delete a custom HTML template, select the desired template's 'Delete' option. If you wish to preview a custom HTML template, select the desired template's 'Preview' option.

Notes:

  • Selecting 'Delete' will take you to the below page. Select 'Delete Template' to confirm deletion.

  • Previewing a template will alter the URL bar to send you to the homepage and view the selected template's changes using the preview_template_ids query parameter and the id of the template being edited.

Default customization templates

Options: Header, Neck, Body, Ankle, Footer, Sole

There are other customisations for the header and footer that can only be achieved by requesting the Aristotle Metadata team. See the screenshot below as an example:

You can alter these sections of the page by making custom templates for the following sections:

  • Header: /aristotle_cloud/custom/header.html

  • Neck: /aristotle_cloud/custom/neck.html

  • Footer: /aristotle_cloud/custom/footer.html

  • Ankle: /aristotle_cloud/custom/ankle.html

Note: For example template names, see below.
