# Page Row Types

There are 10 row types that form the building blocks of a page, outlined as follows.

* ### [Text](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/editing-content/existing-pages/text-rows)
A Text Row is designed for adding textual content into between 1 and 12 columns. A text row supports markdown formatting [as described here](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/learning-markdown). It also allows you to add an inline image after the text. When a row is inserted into a page it will by default be created with a single column which will take up the entire width of the Row. See the [Text](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/editing-content/existing-pages/text-rows) article for a detailed guide.

* ### [Action Buttons](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/editing-content/existing-pages/action-buttons)
Action buttons are designed to allow a number of buttons to be created on a page that when clicked will link you to other pages either internally, or externally to other websites. See the [Action Buttons](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/editing-content/existing-pages/action-buttons) article for a detailed guide.

* ### [Album](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/images/albums)
This is the primary row type for displaying photo collections. Albums can be displayed as a carousel, a gallery, or a grid. They can also link to a walk, social, or committee event and auto-generate links from the album title. See the [Albums](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/images/albums) article for a detailed guide.

* ### [Index](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/editing-content/example-pages/indexes)
This allows you to auto-generate a set of action buttons based on a collection of pages or albums elsewhere on the site. You can choose all or a subset. This row type is useful if you want to structure your content in a nested way throughout your site — e.g. have an index on a weekend break page, with links to an album of photos for each of the weekend breaks that are available. The index can also generate an interactive map with pins — if the child pages contain location rows, each page appears as a pin on the map, allowing visitors to navigate directly to a page by clicking its pin. See this in action on the Kent Ramblers [Recommended Routes](https://www.kent.ngx-ramblers.org.uk/walks/routes/recommended) page.

* ### [Location](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/editing-content/location-rows)
Location rows display geographic information for walking routes, showing start points (and optionally end points) with interactive maps, postcodes, grid references, and What3Words codes. When a page with a location row appears in an index that includes a map view, a pin will automatically appear on the map based on the location details. See the [Location Rows](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/editing-content/location-rows) article for a detailed guide.

* ### [Committee Documents](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/editing-content/committee-documents)
Committee document rows provide a structured way to display and manage downloadable files such as meeting minutes, agendas, and reports — organised by date with access controls. See the [Committee Documents](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/editing-content/committee-documents) article for a detailed guide.

* ### [Shared Fragment](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/editing-content/shared-fragments)
Shared fragments are reusable content blocks that can be embedded across multiple pages. Edit the fragment once, and every page that uses it updates automatically. See the [Shared Fragments](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/editing-content/shared-fragments) article for a detailed guide.

* ### [Map](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/editing-content/map-rows)
Map rows display interactive maps with walking routes loaded from GPX files. Routes are shown as coloured lines on the map with start/end markers, direction arrows, and optional waypoints. Supports both OpenStreetMap and Ordnance Survey map tiles. See the [GPX Route Maps](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/editing-content/map-rows) article for a detailed guide.

* ### [Area Map](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/editing-content/area-maps)
Area map rows display an interactive geographic overview of Ramblers group boundaries, showing coloured regions on a map with hover effects, labels, and optional click actions. See the [Area Maps](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/editing-content/area-maps) article for a detailed guide.

* ### Events
Events rows embed a live listing of walks or social events into any page, with configurable filters, search, and display options. See the dedicated [Events Rows](https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/how-to/committee/editing-content/events-rows) guide for full details.

> **Note:** The **Carousel** row type is being phased out and will be removed in a future update. The **Album** row type now accommodates all carousel functions and should be used instead.
