Public Sub SetAvailablePageLayouts ( _
pageLayouts As PageLayout(), _
resetAllSubsitesToInherit As Boolean _
)
'Usage
Dim instance As PublishingWeb
Dim pageLayouts As PageLayout()
Dim resetAllSubsitesToInherit As Boolean
instance.SetAvailablePageLayouts(pageLayouts, _
resetAllSubsitesToInherit)
public void SetAvailablePageLayouts(
PageLayout[] pageLayouts,
bool resetAllSubsitesToInherit
)
Parameters
- pageLayouts
Type: []
An array of PageLayout objects that are available for use in creating PublishingPage objects within this PublishingWeb object.
- resetAllSubsitesToInherit
Type: System.Boolean
This Boolean parameter indicates whether the available PageLayout objects should be pushed down to all subsites.
Remarks
After calling this method, the GetAvailablePageLayouts method returns this set PageLayout objects. The **IsInheritingAvailablePageLayouts()**and IsAllowingAllPageLayouts() properties are False.
To save changes after calling this method, call the Update method.
Note
This operation is synchronous.
Examples
This sample restricts the set of available page layouts used for creating pages in a publishing Web so that only page layouts associated with a specified content type are available.
Before using this sample, verify that the associatedContentTypeId parameter is from a content type on the root Web of the site.
