Which development element should I use in the Presence® Website Builder?

A guide to choosing the right development element for your website — organized by page type and what you're trying to accomplish.

---

Overview

The Presence® Website Builder includes development elements for two distinct contexts — development detail pages and general pages. Choosing the right element depends on where you're placing it. Most development elements only work on development detail pages.

For instructions on adding a development element to your page, see [How to add development elements to your Presence® website].

Elements for development detail pages

Use these elements on individual development detail pages to present comprehensive information about a specific development.

---

Development Intro

An introduction section covering the overview and key highlights of a development. Use at the top of a development detail page to give visitors an immediate sense of the project.

Development Content

Long-form descriptive content about a development — features, amenities, timeline, and pricing details. Use when you want to provide comprehensive written information about a development beyond the intro.

Development Details Tab

A tabbed interface presenting development information in organized sections. Visitors click tabs to navigate between different categories of information. Use when a development has enough detail across multiple categories to warrant organized tabbed navigation.

Development Image Slider

An image slider for development photos — renderings, construction progress, and completed units. Use to tell the visual story of a development and show progress over time.

Development Video

A video tour or overview of a development highlighting amenities, location, and progress. Use when you have video content that showcases the development more effectively than photos alone.

Map of Development

A map showing the development's location and boundaries. Use to give visitors geographic context — especially useful for large or multi-phase developments where location and site layout matter.

Courtesy of Development Map

A development map with courtesy attribution included. Use in place of the standard Map of Development when attribution to the map source is required.

Development External Gallery Component

A gallery element for development photos that may link to an external gallery. Use when your development photos are hosted externally or when you want to link visitors to a fuller gallery outside the page.

---

Elements for general pages

Use these elements on general pages — your homepage, a developments overview page, or any page that displays multiple developments rather than a single one.

---

Development Grid

A grid layout displaying multiple developments with names, photos, and descriptions. Use on a developments overview page to give visitors a browsable collection of your projects.

Development Grids

An alternative development grid element for displaying a collection of development projects.

Note: The distinction between Development Grid and Development Grids is unclear — both appear to serve a similar purpose with potentially different layout options. If you're unsure which to use, contact our support team via live chat in the Presence® Platform, by email at support@luxurypresence.com, or by phone at 310-955-1077, option 2.

Featured Development Grids

A grid of hand-selected featured developments. Use on your homepage or a developments overview page when you want to highlight specific projects rather than displaying all developments automatically.

FAQs

Which elements should I combine on a development detail page?

A well-built development detail page typically combines several elements — Development Intro at the top, followed by Development Image Slider for visuals, Development Content for detailed information, Map of Development for geographic context, and Development Video if available. Development Details Tab works well when information spans multiple categories.

What's the difference between Development Grid and Featured Development Grids?

Development Grid displays developments automatically — either all of them or filtered by criteria. Featured Development Grids lets you hand-pick which developments to showcase. Use Featured Development Grids on your homepage when you want control over which projects appear, and Development Grid on a full developments overview page where showing everything makes sense.

Can I use a development detail page element on my homepage?

No. Elements like Development Intro, Development Content, Development Image Slider, and others designed for development detail pages will not display correctly on general pages like your homepage. Use Development Grid, Development Grids, or Featured Development Grids for general pages instead.
