Pages Setup

There are a variety of page templates available with the eLumine theme. Some of them can be used to generate a regular page. Others are for more specific cases.

Login/Registration Page

There are two different pages available in eLumine that can be used:

1. Default WordPress Login/Registration Page.
2. eLumine’s Login/Registration Shortcode page.

Default WordPress Login/Registration Page

1. Go to WordPress Dashboard > Settings > Reading Settings.
2. Scroll down to the Select Login Page setting under Additional Page Selection Settings section.
3. Choose Select a Page to remove a previously set login page.
4. Click on Save Changes.
5. Now the custom login page has been deselected so the default WordPress Login page will load on clicking the Login menu in the website header.

eLumine’s Login/Registration page

1. If you have installed eLumine’s demo content then you should already have a page called “Registration Page” created on your website which contains eLumine’s Login/Registration shortcode.

   • Go the Pages menu in your WordPress Dashboard.
   • Click on the Add New button.
   • Set a page title of your choice.
   • In the page content add [elu_registration_page] shortcode. This will render the login form by default with the link to show the Registration page.
   • If you wish to load the Registration page by default with the login link below it then add [elu_registration_page registration] shortcode.
   • After adding the content, set the page template to Login Template in the Page Attributes meta box. This will render proper styling for both the forms.

Page Templates

There are a variety of page templates available with the eLumine theme. Some of them can be used to generate a regular page. Others are for more specific cases.

WooCommerce My Account Template

Custom Metaboxes

Other than page templates there are two other meta boxes available for configuration.

Header Settings

This meta box is used to override the theme wide header setting for a particular page. For example, if you have set a dark header in the theme settings but you wish to use a light header for a particular page, then you need to edit the page, set Overwrite Default to “Yes” and select the Header type.

Layout Settings

This meta box is used to override the site-wide layout for a particular page. 
For example, if you are using Boxed layout for your website but wish to use Full-Width layout for a particular page then change the layout type using the dropdown and it will override the theme wide setting for that page.
