How Do I Customize the Landing Page for My Opportunity?

How Do I Customize the Landing Page for My Opportunity?

1. What is the Opportunity Landing Page?

Every opportunity on Vome has a user-facing landing page. This is the page a user sees when they are directed to an opportunity through a direct link, when viewing shift details, when browsing opportunities from their home page, or when clicking More Details on an opportunity featured on your organization's main page.

The landing page presents your opportunity details, descriptions, and an application button. As an administrator, you have full control over which sections appear on that page and in what order they are displayed.


2. How do I access the Page Layout editor?

You can access the Page Layout editor in two ways.

From an existing opportunity:

  1. Navigate to the opportunity dashboard for a published opportunity.
  2. Click the Page Layout tab.
  3. The editor will load automatically.

During opportunity creation:

  1. When adding a new opportunity, proceed to Step 2: Customize.
  2. Open the Page Layout section within that step.

The editor is made up of two panels. The left panel (the Toolbox) contains hidden sections you can drag back onto the page and a button to add custom blocks. The right panel (the Canvas) shows a live preview of how the landing page will appear to users.

Info
Note: When you open the Page Layout editor for the first time on a given opportunity, a default layout is generated automatically. You are never starting from a blank page.


3. What sections are always visible on the landing page?

Some sections are locked at the top of every landing page. They cannot be hidden or repositioned:

  • Cover Photo: The banner image at the top of the page. Editable via file upload.
  • Organization Logo: Your organization's profile image, auto-populated from your org settings
    • This can be shown as a site logo if those using site settings and configure the opportunity branding to show sites
  • Opportunity Title: The opportunity name and its parent category or program title.

All three are editable inline through the editor, but they will always remain at the top of the page.

Note: If no cover photo has been uploaded, a default image will be used. If no organization logo is set, a default placeholder will appear.


4. Which sections can I show, hide, or reorder?

Below the locked header, the following sections can be toggled on or off and dragged into any order you prefer.

Visible by default:

  • Tags: Predefined and custom tags associated with this opportunity.
  • Job Description: The opportunity description, supports rich text.
  • Category Description: Description of the parent category or program.

Hidden by default:

  • Location: Remote, on-site, or hybrid, with address details.
  • Commitment: One-time or recurring schedule details.
  • Qualifications: Age, skills, languages, certifications, and custom requirements.
  • Organization Details: Org name, logo, mission, contact info, and causes.
  • Self-Schedule / Available Shifts: Shift availability. Which one appears depends on how your opportunity is configured.

To reorder sections, grab the drag handle on the left side of any section card in the Canvas and drop it in your preferred position. To hide a section, toggle the visibility icon on the card and it will move to the Toolbox. To restore it, drag it back from the Toolbox onto the Canvas.

Info
Note: Flexible schedule and Available Shifts are mutually exclusive. If your opportunity uses flexible scheduling, only the Flexible schedule section will be available in the editor.


5. How do I edit the content of a section?

Click the edit icon on any section card in the Canvas to open the editor for that section. What you see depends on the section type:

  • Cover Photo opens a photo upload dialog.
  • Job Description and Category Description open a rich text editor that supports formatting and inline images.
  • Location and Commitment open their respective components and save automatically as you make changes.
  • Qualifications opens a dropdown-based editor for age, skills, languages, certifications, and custom fields.
  • Tags opens the tags management dialog.
  • Opportunity Title opens a text input with a 255-character limit.

Important: Edits made to sections like Job Description and Category Description save directly to the opportunity record. These are not draft changes and will be immediately reflected on the live landing page.


6. Can I add my own custom sections?

Yes. You can create entirely custom content sections using the Add Custom Block button in the Toolbox.

  1. In the left panel of the editor, locate the Add Custom Block button.
  2. Drag it onto the Canvas in the position you want.
  3. An editor popup will open where you can add a title, rich text content, and an optional video embed.
  4. Save the block. It will appear on the landing page like any other section.

Custom blocks support an optional section heading, rich text content including formatted text and inline images, and an optional video embed (YouTube, Vimeo, or a direct video URL).

You can add as many custom blocks as needed. Each one can be edited or deleted at any time. If you leave the title blank, the block will render as an untitled content section.


7. What does a user see when they visit the landing page?

Users see the sections you have configured, in exactly the order you set, with only the visible sections displayed. The page structure is always:

  1. The locked header (cover photo, organization logo, opportunity title) appears at the top.
  2. Your ordered visible sections appear below the header.
  3. The application form and Apply button always appear at the bottom.

Sections you have hidden will not appear to users at all. Users can reach the landing page in several ways: via a direct link shared with them, by clicking into a shift they want to learn more about, from the opportunities browsing section on their home page, or by clicking More Details on an opportunity listed on your organization's main page.


8. Are changes saved automatically?

It depends on the type of change:

  • Section order and visibility are saved automatically when you drag and drop or toggle a section.
  • Location and Commitment settings save automatically as you update them within the editor popup.
  • Cover photo, descriptions, qualifications, tags, and custom blocks require you to save within the popup editor before changes take effect.

All changes are applied directly to the live opportunity record. There is no separate draft or staging mode for the Page Layout editor.


9. What if my opportunity is linked to a site or chapter?

If your opportunity is associated with a site (a sub-organization or chapter) and site-level branding is configured, the cover photo and organization logo shown to users on the landing page may reflect the site's branding rather than the top-level organization's. This applies only to the branding elements in the locked header. The rest of the page layout behavior remains the same.


10. Does the Page Layout editor affect the application form?

No. The application form and Apply button at the bottom of every landing page are always present regardless of how you configure the Page Layout. They are managed separately and are not part of the Page Layout editor.

The Page Layout editor controls everything above the application form: the header, the visible content sections, and any custom blocks you have added.
