TRADITIONAL MASTER PAGE AND PAGE LAYOUT OVERVIEW
DESIGN MANAGER: HTML MASTER PAGES & HTML PAGE LAYOUTS
DEMOS, IMPORTANT CONTROLS AND CONCEPTS

TRADITIONAL SHAREPOINT MASTER PAGES
 Provides main HTML wrapper used by all pages
 Defines HTML <html />, <head /> and <body /> tags
 Loads resources such as JS and CSS files
 Defines page flow and shared page components
 Header, footer, logo, navigation, suite bar / ribbon, etc.
 Uses ContentPlaceHolders for replaceable areas
 OOTB, no longer uses tables for layout!

MASTER PAGE COMPONENTS
Suite Bar
Ribbon
Header
Current Nav
Page Wrapper

TRADITIONAL SHAREPOINT MASTER PAGES BEST PRACTICES
 Start with seattle.master, oslo.master or a starter Master Page
 Always include all ContentPlaceHolders found in seattle.master
 Use hidden <div /> to hide unneeded ContentPlaceHolders
 Keep the suite bar / ribbon at the top of the page
 Replace <PublishingRibbon:PublishingRibbon /> if more control needed
 Include your custom layout HTML within #s4-workspace
 Must use <SharePoint:AjaxDelta /> blocks to allow for MDS
 Must register tag prefixes to access SharePoint and .Net controls

TRADITIONAL SHAREPOINT PAGE LAYOUTS
 Specific to Publishing sites
 Defines content layout for a given page
 Contains “Content” blocks that link to Master Page
 Does not contain <html />, <head />, <body /> and other common tags
 Associated with a Content Type
 May surface Content Type columns

PAGE LAYOUT COMPONENTS
Site Columns
Snippets
Content Place Holder

TRADITIONAL SHAREPOINT PAGE LAYOUTS BEST PRACTICES
 Start with an existing page layout
 Stick with same content type if possible
 Always keep custom code within <asp:Content /> blocks
 Consider different content viewing and authoring experiences
 Use <Publishing:EditModePanel /> controls
 Bake in specific rollup webparts, or default webparts in webpart zones
 Must register tag prefixes to access SharePoint and .Net controls

THE NEW SHAREPOINT
BRANDING TOOL
DESIGN MANAGER

DESIGN MANAGER OVERVIEW
 New to SharePoint 2013
 Requires Publishing Infrastructure
 Import a HTML prototype directly into SharePoint
 SharePoint handles conversion
 Interface for custom Master Pages and Page Layouts
 Also includes Display Templates and Device Channels
 No longer limited by SharePoint Designer

HTML MASTER PAGES
 Convert a HTML prototype directly into SharePoint
 Some assembly required – Snippet Gallery

HTML PAGE LAYOUTS
 Must derive from a Master Page
 Also tied to Content Types / custom Content Types
 Also uses Snippets and Snippet Manager
 Much easier way to include SharePoint controls
 Only edit what is in “Content” blocks

DESIGN MANAGER BEST PRACTICES
 Only edit the .html files – SharePoint controls the .master and .aspx
 Only rename, move, delete, check out, publish, etc the .html files even
 HTML Master Pages manage unneeded ContentPlaceHolders!
 The Snippet Gallery and snippets are your friend
 All code must be valid HTML / XML, thus why controls are “comments”
 SharePoint may mangle your HTML, bummer
