C5 recommended page_types

Permalink
I like to call the page types names that mean a little more than "left sidebar" etc. so the client knows they're selecting a three column page with orange header panel (the layout of the page type panel doesn't really like this)

I want to install a plugin and it says I have to have C5 recommend page types, does that just mean the must be called left_sidebar?

Thanks...t

I'me using 5.6 if that makes a difference:)

Yes, you do need to use the main page type titles (left sidebar, right sidebar, full, etc.). You can also have custom ones, too.

Also, you can assign custom layout icons to each page type that match. There are a few how-tos on this:

You can call page types whatever you like, best to an an underscore though. i.e. 'three_column_orange_header.php'.

Then run through the theme again to add extra page types.
