Notice
From release 3.3 onwards, the individual templates (Core, Standardised & Harmonised) can be found on the ECL as configurations of the structurally merged components (Site header, Page header & Footer), which now have a single, dedicated page. Concurrently, the EWG (Europa Web Guide) has also been updated to better accommodate information regarding the optionality of components & elements per site type. Please follow the corresponding links found in the table below for more information.
| Knowledge base | New location |
|---|---|
| EWG (Europa web guide) | Guidelines for EC branded Harmonised websites - Page header(s) |

The Harmonised group 1 page header gives context and confidence to the users so they understand what the page is about, to be placed just below the Site header.
