You can create a section by clicking the add section button. Inside the section there are differing options based on the type you select. Not all options are available for all types. Typically, you will see the following:

==Creating a Section==
Set the '''Content Type''' to '''Sections''' to reveal theme options. Themes can be used to specify a certain look and feel for the portal page. Certain classic themes (such as "''Traditional" '' or "''Whitepaper"'') do not come with pre-made section templates. However, newer themes (such as "''Website", "Overlook", "Portfolio"'', and "''Management"'') come with additional pre-made section templates that make it easy to customize a page to be a landing page, dashboard, profile, or event page.

===Choosing a Section Theme===
There are six theme options: ''Traditional, Whitepaper, Website, Overlook, Portfolio'', and '''Management'''. You can mix and match these themes at the page level. So, you could have a home page that uses the ''Website'' theme and then another page for applications in progress that uses the ''Whitepaper'' theme. It's easy to flip between themes and see which will work best for you.
To change the theme for a section:
# Click the '''Preview''' button.
You can try out different themes for each page this way. <u>'''Note: '''</u> the functionality and configuration options differ for each theme. For example, in the default ''Traditional'' theme you can render a section in split screen whereas that is not available in the white paper ''Whitepaper'' or website ''Website'' themes.
