Create a Basic Page

Learn how to add and style page content using the DesignPLUS sidebar. We’ll cover different content types that can easily be added to a new page or to existing Canvas content.

A clear and engaging home page can set the stage for the rest of the quarter, and Cidi Labs makes styling a well-designed home page simple. We’ll cover how to use the new DesignTools sidebar to create a home page and identify some new options not available with the legacy sidebar.
