Standard page

All standard content pages generally have 2 columns:

  • left navigation column
  • adjacent primary content column.

If no asides are needed, you have the option to extend the primary content column to the full width of the page.

Section navigation - required

  • Positioned on the left side of page and can only contain one level of navigation under the section heading.

Page title - required

  • The page title should be descriptive of the purpose of the page. For example 'Protecting the Great Barrier Reef' is better than 'Great Barrier Reef' because it shows exactly what the page is about—and clarifies that it doesn’t include tourism etc.
  • Appears below the breadcrumbs.

Primary content - required

  • Any available components can be used, e.g. text, accordions, images, callouts, tables and embedded video.

Last updated date - required

  • A required element positioned beneath the primary content column.

Last reviewed date - optional

  • An optional element positioned beneath the primary content column.

Acknowledgements - optional

  • An optional element positioned beneath the primary content column.

Creative commons licence - required

  • A required element positioned beneath the primary content column.

Aside/s - optional

  • Positioned on the right side of the page. If no asides are needed, there's an option to extend the primary content column to the full width of the page.
  • Can contain customised content, e.g. related initiatives, latest news, upcoming events, contact details, tips, customer stories or case studies. See the aside component for guidance.
