A task-focused landing (TFL) page is a custom La Trobe University landing page. This is most common for microsite landing pages, to direct users to important parts of your site.

A TFL is modular with common features including landing features (large content boxes), content boxes (with or without images) and news or event listings. Editors can update a TFL, but the process differs from standard editing principles.

TFL widgets

TFLs are divided into sections, called widgets. Edits on a widget won’t affect the surrounding content. The following widgets are available on TFLs:

  • landing feature A
  • landing feature B
  • content boxes with image
  • content boxes without image
  • YouTube video embed
  • news listing
  • events listing
  • Social media icons.
