Setting Up Custom Pages

Summary

Custom Pages is one of the most powerful tools on Grandstand, giving you the power to create nearly any type of page you can imagine. Each Custom Page is made of Content Blocks that stack on top of each other. Each content block will fill the whole width of the phone or tablet and stack on top of Custom Page Examples the content block below it.

Step 1: Add Page

To get started hit the Add Page button and give the page a name. This is the name that will show at the top of the page in the header. Depending on your package you can also add password protection to your page. The password used will be the same for all users but can be changed periodically.

Step 2: Add Content Block

Once the page has been added you can begin adding content to it. To do this, click on the pencil icon to go Edit Page Content. On this page you have a few options. You can Upload an Image to your library, Upload a PDF to your library or Add Content Block which we will be doing in this step. Once you click Add Content Block you will be given a choice of many different types of Blocks. These include:

• Headline or Large Text: Big separator text
• Body Text: Any long-form text should use this format
