Changing the Page Layout of a Specific Page
You can use the SMT Page Layout Selector for landing pages and enhanced pages, provided additional layouts are available for those pages. For core page types, only default layouts are available. Core page types include the Home, Item Detail, and Facet Search pages.
If you are a developer, to learn how to add page types and define alternative layouts, see Create Page Types.
