Custom Page Layouts with Modern Pages in SharePoint 2019
- Unfortunately the answer is No, even we don't have yet custom page layouts in SPO (they are coming)
jcgonzalezmartin Thanks
Is there any way to implement a custom extension that would add sections with the desired section layout and perhaps add some webparts onto the page once the page is created? From a content author's workflow perspective this could look like this: create a new page, apply custom news "layout" and start authoring.
Thanks
Are you aware of any code that you could point me to that allows you do add a section to a page, configure the section's layout (like one column, 2 column, etc ) and code that allows you to add webparts to pages and sections in the right columns? Thanks
Deleted You can use CSOM for this. I personally use PnP to do this kind of work. They have libraries for PowerShell and for C# to help you do this.
Here is a great video from a while back on how to do this.Beau Cameron Thanks for the suggestion. Could all that code be done client side somehow and available to content users via GUI? Obviously content authors don't have access to C# / CSOM and so on. They want an easy workflow. Create a new page, click a button to change layout and start content authoring.
Thank you
