The Build Your Own Template (Aura)

The Build Your Own template provides the basic pages every Experience Builder site needs: Home, Create Record, Error, Record Detail, Record List, Related Record List, Search, Check Password, Forgot Password, Login, Login Error, and Register. And you can easily add more pages and components as needed for the experience you’re building. Customize your branding and themes to refine the look of your site.

  • To view reports, add a report object page to your site.
  • To include a Chatter feed in the site, create a Feed Detail page.
  • To let community members post questions and answers, add a Question Detail page.
