We highly recommend backing up your data before enabling Static Data Structures.** Using beLayout -------------- With a special HTML template called “beLayout” you are able to style the page module. This is a good way to order the content areas in the same way they will appear on the frontend page. You can use markers for the field names of your content area. If you have a field for content elements called “field\_content” you can place it in your HTML template with “###field\_content###”. The beLayout file can be assigned to a Data Structure record or a Template Object record, with the Template Object having priority. When using Static Data Structures, the beLayout must be in same directory as the Data Struture file with same name and file extension “html”. beLayout is useful for: - Use in Page DataStructuresandTemplateObjects:Give your editors a better overview of the available content areas in your DS.This isespeciallyusefulif you have more than 3columns. - Use inFlexible ContentElements DataStructuresandTemplateObject:This is especially useful for grid-elements elements, such as a two column FCE.
