The blue label below the Main master page thumbnail says because you applied it to the Main master page in step 3. Notice that after applying the A-Master page to the Main master page, the Main master page thumbnail updates to display the same appearance. Right-click on the Main master page thumbnail and choose Masters > A-Master from the context menu that appears.
Type in a more descriptive name for the new master page you just created: Main. Double-click the B-Master text field below the thumbnail to edit it.By default, the new master page is named B-Master.

Click the Plus sign to the right of the A-Master page to create a brand new master page. While viewing the site map in Plan view, hover your cursor over the A-Master page thumbnail to see the Plus sign buttons appear on both sides.In the next section, you'll create a new master page that inherits the contents of the A-Master page, and then add the header, so you can apply it to the site pages. Note that when you hover over a page or master page name, a tooltip displays the hierarchy of the applied masters for that page or master page.Īt the moment, you've created the A-Master page with the browser fill tiling background and the footer content. Or if you prefer, right-click on any master or page thumbnail in Plan view and use the Masters option in the context menu that appears to set the master. Just like how you can click and drag a master page thumbnail to a page thumbnail to apply the master page to a page, you can create multiple master pages and then click and drag a master page onto another master page. You manage and apply master pages in Plan view.
When redesigning a site, you only have to edit each element once, and all instances of it are updated on the site automatically. The benefit to using hierarchal master pages is that they allow you to limit the occurrence of an element to one instance. If you created a third master page, that one could use the elements in the A-Master page, plus any elements unique to the second section. Using Muse 4.0 and above, you can now create an A-Master page that contains the shared elements that are displayed in multiple master pages (such as adding the background and footer as described in the previous sections), and then create additional master pages that inherit all elements in the A-Master page, plus contain any elements unique to the first section. As a result, both master pages often contained some of the same elements-so whenever you updated the site, it was necessary to edit the content in both master pages to keep all the elements in sync. In the past, if you wanted to make a site with two different sections that are similar but each have a unique appearance, you could duplicate a master page, change it slightly, and apply it to specific pages. In previous versions of Muse, you could create multiple master pages, but you could only apply one master page with one set of page elements at a time to a web page. Hierarchal master pages work similarly to how master pages can be applied to a page in the Plan view. Muse allows you to create master pages that are applied to other master pages.
