Namespace:  Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing
Assembly:  Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing (in Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub SetAvailablePageLayouts ( _
    pageLayouts As PageLayout(), _
    resetAllSubsitesToInherit As Boolean _
)
'Usage
Dim instance As PublishingWeb
Dim pageLayouts As PageLayout()
Dim resetAllSubsitesToInherit As Boolean

instance.SetAvailablePageLayouts(pageLayouts, _
    resetAllSubsitesToInherit)
public void SetAvailablePageLayouts(
    PageLayout[] pageLayouts,
    bool resetAllSubsitesToInherit
)

Parameters

  • resetAllSubsitesToInherit
    Type: System.Boolean

    This Boolean parameter indicates whether the available PageLayout objects should be pushed down to all subsites.

Remarks

After calling this method, the GetAvailablePageLayouts method returns this set PageLayout objects. The **IsInheritingAvailablePageLayouts()**and IsAllowingAllPageLayouts() properties are False.

To save changes after calling this method, call the Update method.

Note

This operation is synchronous.

Examples

This example restricts the set of available page layouts used for creating pages in a publishing Web so that only page layouts associated with a specified content type are available.

Before using this example, verify that the associatedContentTypeId parameter is from a content type on the root Web site of the site.

using SPContentTypeId = Microsoft.SharePoint.SPContentTypeId;
using SPContentType = Microsoft.SharePoint.SPContentType;
using SPSite = Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite;
using SPFile = Microsoft.SharePoint.SPFile;
using SPWeb = Microsoft.SharePoint.SPWeb;
using PublishingSite = Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PublishingSite;
using PublishingWeb = Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PublishingWeb;
using PageLayoutCollection = Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PageLayoutCollection;
using PageLayout = Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PageLayout;

// Validate the input parameters.

SPSite site = publishingWeb.Web.Site;
PublishingSite publishingSite = new PublishingSite(site);

// Retrieve a collection of all page layouts in the site collection
// that match the content type.
SPContentType associatedContentType = publishingSite.ContentTypes[associatedContentTypeId];
if (null == associatedContentType)
{
    throw new System.ArgumentException(
        "The SPContentTypeId did not match an SPContentType in the SPSite.RootWeb",
        "associatedContentTypeId");
}

PageLayoutCollection pageLayoutsByContentType = 
    publishingSite.GetPageLayouts(associatedContentType, excludeHiddenLayouts);
