We are excited to announce the launch of updated product names, logos, and headers within our user interfaces as part of the CivicPlus® Solution Rebranding initiative. These changes mark the first step toward creating a cohesive and seamless user experience across all solutions in our portfolio. As part of this transition, users may notice minor design updates. While the functionality you rely on remains unchanged, we are in the process of updating screenshots and other resources on our Help Centers to reflect the new branding. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to complete these updates.

Container Inheritance

  • Updated:

Container Inheritance allows you to have the same format on multiple pages and only have to change it in one place. The main page is called the parent page, while the subpages are called child pages. The option is usually found in the footer of a page when selecting the container.
