==Navigation menus==
Examples of various menus to navigate subpages or multi-page topics.
=== Menu buttons ===
{{Template:GVUG}}
Simple to set up, easy to modify. Get the code and complete instructions [[Template:Menu-begin/doc|here]].
=== W2P style ===
{{W2P}}
The code is more complex. You may wish to use a lighter background with use the default link font style and colours. Copy the code [[:Template:W2P|from here]].
=== Horizontal navigation bar ===
{{Windsor-Detroit Tunnel POE mentoring topics}}
This works well for the bottom of a page. The code [[Template:Windsor-Detroit Tunnel POE mentoring topics|is here]].
=== Tabs ===
====Small...====
[[File:Basic-tabs-capture.PNG|link=Template:Basic-tabs]]
'''NEW!''' A pretty simple template that keeps all tabbed content on a single page. [[Template:Basic-tabs|Instructions here]].
{{CFB Trenton Admin Community (tabs)|1=focus|2=linked|3=linked|4=linked|5=linked|6=linked|7=linked|8=linked|9=linked}}
</div>
Colourful, but not for the faint of heart. The tab code is contained in a template; the trancluded template has options to specify which tab is has the focus and which are linked. For each page the template is transcluded on, that page tab should be specified as the focus while others are specified as link. The template code [[:CFB Trenton Admin Community| is here]]. If you need help, you might want to contact a [[peer helper]] for assistance.
====Large(ish)...====
{{Rural Development Network tabs|1=focus|2=linked|3=linked|4=linked|5=linked|6=linked|7=linked}}
Less colourful, but still not for the faint of heart. Code [[Template:Rural Development Network tabs|is here]].
'''Plainer still, are the following templates:'''

==Web Development Templates==
===Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)===
A style sheet or master page on which you can globally edit and format graphic elements and text common to each page of a web-site. These allow the application of a [[Common Look and Feel (CLF)]] framework that maintains a certain constant identity throughout a visitors' visit to the site. Changes made to the master (template) page are said to "cascade" down to all sub-pages (thus the term "cascading style sheets"). This type of template typically contains information about:
#font types, sizes and colours;
#the content and placement of navigation tools and sub-menus (in our case, displayed on the left hand side);
#the content and placement of tabs displayed along the top of each page;
#standard graphic headers and footers;
#copyright notices;
The '''primary benefit''' of these types of templates is that they allow the web-master to apply global changes by making a single change in one location.
A number of groups have created CSS templates for their pages, which you may use as-is or copy to a new template for modification:
* {{tl|Cco-css}}
* {{tl|AINC-INAC-css}}
* {{tl|Mbl-css}}
* {{tl|TC-css}}
* {{tl|DOJ-css}}
To use a CSS formatting template on your page (CCO's for, example), insert:
:<nowiki>{{#css:{{Cco-css}}}}</nowiki>
...into your wiki page.
===Wiki Page Scaffolds===
A scaffold is a style sheet or master page you can use to build your own page. Don't edit or write over these: copy and paste the code onto the new page as a framework from which to base your work on:
* [[NRCan action items scaffold|Action Item table]]
* [[Agenda / Record of Decision/ Action Item Scaffold|Agenda / Record of Decision/ Action Item]]
* [[Bilingual page scaffold|Bilingual page]]; see also: [[Template:Two column fr-en]]
* [[NRCan Traditional Briefing Note scaffold|Briefing Note]]
* Calendar: [[2015 calendar scaffold|2015]]
* [[Community scaffold|Community page]]; see also: [[Template:Sample community page]]
* [[Directory of Expertise scaffold|Directory of Expertise]]
* [[Template:Page - whitesmoke|Elegant page]]
* [[Template:Main_page_layout|GCpedia Main Page-style]]
* [[Meeting minutes scaffold|Meeting minutes]]
* [[:Template:Newspaper|Newspaper / Newsletter]] {{colour|red|- '''NEW!'''}}
* [[Project main page scaffold|Project]]
* [[Project charter scaffold|Project charter]]
* User Page: [[Template:Default user page|Default]], [[Template:Basic_user_profile|Basic]], [[Template:Deluxe_user_profile|Deluxe]], [[Template:User profile - Todd Lyons' style|Todd Lyons' style]], [[Template:User profile - Cedgell style|Chelsea Edgell style]] — ''See also:'' [[Help:Creating a user profile]]
* [[Policy and Governance Subcommittee Working Group Scaffold|Working Group]]
:''More may be available in: [[:Category:Scaffolds]]''
::''If you create additional scaffolds, please add them to the [[:Category:Scaffolds|category]] and to the listing above.''
===Notice Templates===
A page '''element''' created explicitly for its contents to be displayed on other pages. By themselves, these ''mini''-pages hold no value, however, when included on other [[GCPEDIA]] pages, [[Help:Notice Templates]] can provide valuable information as to the status of the information being presented to the reader.
:*For more information on how to use GCPEDIA Notice Templates [[Help:Templates |click here]].
:*If you have questions about templates, or if you are interested in the discussion concerning [[GCPEDIA]] templates, [[GCPEDIA:Templates|vist this page]].
:*For a complete list of GCPEDIA pages that make use of one or more templates, [http://www.gcpedia.gc.ca/gcwiki/index.php?title=Special%3AAllPages&from=&namespace=10 click here].
==Desktop templates==
A pre-developed page layout in electronic media used to make new pages with a similar design, pattern, or style including standard letters used in mass-mailings. A standardized file type used by computer software as a pre-formatted example on which to base other files, especially documents. '''GCPEDIA users are encouraged to further develop this section by including links to the following types of templates:'''
===Word Processing Templates===
:*Agenda;
:*Meeting Minutes;
:*Project Documentation (charters, plans, schedules, etc.);
:*Event Management Tools;
:*etc.
===Spreadsheet Templates===
:*Budgeting & Reporting;
:*Statistical Evaluation;
:*etc.
===Presentation Templates===

:*File Tracking;
:*etc.
===Desktop Publishing===
:*Event Notices (i.e. Public Service Week barbecues);
:*Event Advertising (i.e. GCWCC Campaign Events);
:*Team Building Functions;
:*etc.
==Other uses for templates==
:*Arts: a stencil, pattern or overlay used in drawing, painting, etc. Also used in sewing to replicate letters, shapes or designs.
:*Manufacturing: a mechanical template used to cut and shape a product.
:*Programming Templates: a tool for generic programming (particularly C++ language).
:*Science: genetic sequences.
