Overview Pages
In Orbitype, Overview Pages are designed to enhance your browsing experience by providing two distinct ways to view and interact with your content: Grid View and Table View. These views offer flexibility in how data and files are presented, catering to different user preferences and content types. Additionally, Orbitype incorporates hidden settings that automatically customize your experience based on your interactions, ensuring a seamless and personalized interface without requiring manual configuration.
Single Pages
In Orbitype, Single View Pages are a crucial concept, especially designed for displaying individual content items in detail. These pages are dedicated to showcasing a specific piece of content, such as an article, image, video, or any custom content type, in isolation from other content on the site. This approach is particularly beneficial for highlighting the intricacies and details of a single content item, providing a focused and enhanced user experience.
The implementation of Single View Pages allows content creators and developers to tailor the presentation and functionality of these pages to the specific needs of the content they're displaying. This could include custom layouts, interactive elements, or additional metadata, enhancing the engagement and accessibility of the content.
