Templates are available for departments choosing to work on their websites personally, or via a third party. Templates are only downloadable ON-CAMPUS. A user must also have a La Sierra email account in order to login to get (download) or put (upload) files on La Sierra servers.

The templates themselves MUST NOT BE EDITED. You should download the templates you need (2-3), and save them into a folder called Templates (case sensitive) in your Dreamweaver site folder. When you are downloading the templates, you must elect to download the dependent files as well as the actual templates.

Once the templates are stored on your computer, you should be able to create new files by going to File > New... > Templates > Your Site Name > then you can select the appropriate template for your needs.

The templates are designed in levels as follows:

For academic websites:

1. acadPagesTop (for your departmental home page only)
2. acadPagesPlus (for any other page on your site)
3. acadPagesPlusWide (for pages that you want to have a wider landscape area)

For non-academic websites:

1. genPagesTop (for your departmental home page only)
2. genPagesPlus (for any other page on your site)
3. genPagesPlusWide (for pages that you want to have a wider landscape area)
