Page Type - Expandable Content

The Expandable Content with Categories page type allows a club to display expandable content entries separated into various categories within a single page. Each category will display all the content blocks associated with it, allowing the user to expand and collapse the block as desired. The Expandable Content page type allows a club to create multiple content entries within a single page which can be collapsed and expanded as desired.

Please select the Page Type instructions based on your website's design type:

Optional Publish From and Publish To >>

Inserting a Publish From date will allow you to dictate when content saved on a page should be visible on the Live Site. Prior to the Publish To date, only the previously published content (if available), will be visible on the Live Site. If the content on the page has never been published prior to Publish From date, the entire page will not be visible until the date entered. Inserting a Publish To date will allow you to dictate when the published content should no longer be visible on the Live Site. Time sensitive content would be a reason to set a Publish To date to ensure that the content is no longer visible on the Live Site after the date that has been entered. Once the target date is reached, the page will enter an unpublished state.
