The pages of your Syngency-powered website are made up of ten templates, which are created using a combination of HTML, CSS, and Liquid. HTML and CSS dictate the layout and appearance of your site, and Liquid controls what is displayed on the page by Syngency.

Liquid is a powerful templating language that is also very easy to learn and use.
It was created by Shopify and Syngency uses a very similar version of it, as well as a similar collection of templates:

Master 

The global container template. This can be used for any content you want to display on every page of your site (eg. header, logo, menu, footer, etc). 

Blog

/blog
/news

The main page of your blog – this typically lists the most recent posts published.

Blog Post

/blog/{post-url}
/news/{post-url}

An individual blog post – this template will be displayed when a blog post is clicked on from the main blog page. This template can feature “Share” links for Facebook, Twitter, etc. so visitors can share the blog post online. 

Divisions

/divisions

The list of your agency’s divisions (eg. Fashion, Commercial, Celebrity etc).

Division

/divisions/{division-url}

The list of models that belong to a particular division. This can either be all models, or men or women separately.

Home

This is your homepage – the first page visitors see when they arrive at your site. You can use it to show your latest blog posts, featured models, an image carousel – just about anything you like.

Model

/portfolios/{model-url}
/divisions/{division-url}/portfolios/{model-url}

This can be one of the more complex templates – it is used to display a models’ details, measurements, and galleries.

Package

/packages/{package-token}

The website page for your package.

Page

/pages/{page-url}

A simple template used to display the general content of any extra pages you create for your site.

/search

The results of any model search are displayed on this page.

Not Found (404)

/{anything-not-matching-the-above}

The 404 (a web code for “Page Not Found”) page is displayed when the visitor has entered an address for your site that does not match a blog post, division, model, page, or redirect.

Talent Submission

/submission
/apply

The Talent Submission template features a form that prospective talent can submit to be considered for your agency.
