Page types

TYPO3 comes with 3 different categories of page types. The one's you will commonly use throughout your site are:

Page

  • Standard: This is the default page type and creates a page where you can add content elements to.

Link

  • Shortcut: This page type is a shortcut to another page in the page tree. When users navigate to this page in the frontend, they will be taken seamlessly to the shortcut's destination.
  • Link to External URL: This page type leads the user to a page on another website.

Special

  • Folder: A folder page type is a container. It is generally used to store records. It will not display on the frontend. Typically, you will see this used for News, Forms and Search functionality. 
  • Menu separator: This page type creates a visual separation in the page tree.
