Module Definition

In this article, you can learn more about Modules and Pages. Your website displays information in two places: Pages and Modules. 

Pages

Pages display static content that you can update and add to when necessary.

Modules

Modules populate dynamic information throughout the site and relate to the appropriate pages. Many modules have subscription options for your customers. These allow them to subscribe to updates such as Calendar and Agendas.

Information in Modules is generally brief and responsive to specific customer needs. This allows modules to be very specific: events for the Calendar, alerts for the Alert Center, agendas in the Agenda Center, and so on. 

Modules are generally organized by category. Often administrative users are given access to specific categories that fit their role. Permissions support this structure.

You can design and connect modules to work together to make your site even more engaging, with little additional effort.
