Click Mice, Unclick Mice > Posts > Adding a Center web part zone
|
|
7/13/2007Had a few people asking me about how to modify their Team Site default.aspx to add a center web part zone. Easiest way to accomplish this is using SharePoint Designer to make some changes.
- File -> Open Site (enter your site URL)
- Double-click to open the default.aspx
- You should see a Left and a Right web part zone and in between there should be a lonely looking TD tag
- Place your cursor inside that TD tag and click on Insert -> SharePoint Controls -> Web Part Zone
- Select your new web part zone using the top nav breadcrumb and use the drop down to select Tag Properties for your web part zone
- Change the settings to your liking and click Ok
- Now to align the zone properly select the TD tag that contains the web part zone and add set the Vertical Alignment to Top using Tag Properties
- Also specify the width in percent, I would suggest 25% however you may have other ideas based on what you want it to look like
- You will also need to adjust the width percentage in the TD tags that contain the Left and Right web part zones to make sure everything adds up to 100% (If you set the new center zone to 25% you would likely want the Right to be 25% and the Left to be 50%)
- File -> Save and you are done
Granted this only changes the default.aspx for one site, however you can always save the site as a template. You could also go through the steps to create a new site definition based on the team site that updates the OOTB default.aspx, but that is a post all on its own. |
