A content type is a reusable set of data fields that are packaged into a "type" of content that can be used and displayed consistently throughout your site.
For a detailed list of content types, visit the Content Type Options section.
Content blocks are pre-formatted building blocks that you can configure and arrange in many ways to customize your site's visual layout and content.
There are many different content block options enabling you to layout pages in many different ways. This Content Block Visual Guide shows what's available on the Story and Page Content Types.
For a detailed list of available content blocks, visit the Layouts & Content Blocks section.
List pages display all items from certain Content Types in an at-a-glance view. A list page is generated automatically by the Sites Pro System. With taxonomies set up, a List Page can be filtered by categories.
If a Content Type has an associated list page, the URL of the List Page is pre-determined in Sites Pro. The List Page URLs quick guide has a table that shows this information.
Here is an example of a News List Page, showing all News available with Filters. Your News List Page would live at https://[yoursite].duke.edu/news.
A list of which Content Types have automatically generated list pages, and their URLs, is available on the List Page URLs quick guide.
