2.Basic Concepts

Here are a few things that you will encounter while using any HubSpot theme:

    1. Modules: They are interchangeable and self-contained objects that add functionality to your page. They concentrate on a specific aspect and, when correctly combined, produce wonders for your UI/UX. You will be able to drag and drop these wherever you wish in the Environmental theme. There are 28 modules in this theme.
    2. Templates: This is the sample layout that comes with the theme. You can use these to replace your services and content on your website, or you can start from scratch. There are pre-existing 11 templates and 11 system pages in this theme. 
  • Global Theme Style: Backgrounds, headings, buttons, images, and form fields can all have default design options defined in the theme style settings. These options override and replace the theme’s styling options. Global modules remain the same throughout the website. Wherever you have those modules on the website pages, the settings remain unchanged.  
  1. Global Content: Information that appears on numerous pages, such as the header or footer of a website The drag and drop page editor allows you to edit global content directly.
