The idea of this page is to show you the three types of "All Possible Columns" for website templates.  This may be one of the following depending on the type of template you are viewing:

All 3 columns showing - LEFT | CONTENT | RIGHT
Type 1:
LEFT | CONTENT | RIGHT
All 3 columns showing - LEFT | RIGHT | CONTENT
Type 2:
LEFT | RIGHT | CONTENT
All 3 columns showing - CONTENT | LEFT | RIGHT
Type 3:  
CONTENT | RIGHT | LEFT

 

Note Carefully:
These diagrams only show
columns and not other
module positions.

Each column will only appear if something is 'published' to the column from within your website Admin Panel.

Therefore, you may purchase a template that has 3 columns and yet only use 2.  For example, Left and Content.  In the future, it may suit you to publish a page with all three columns or to utilise two columns in a different way, such as, Content & Right.

If the template you are now viewing this page with, has all three columns showing - then please now explore the various combinations & options of this template here:
