For example, a head office and its 3 satellite offices may have 4 subsites, but only the head office site will have a "Company News" section on the site. In this instance, you can still use the subsites module, and use the 'Disallow page types' ability to remove certain page types from being created on subsites. -To do this, you create a subsite as you normally would, and when editing the subsite, click on the 'Disallow page types?' link. Then, select the page types you wish to remove from this subsite.

If an administrator blacklists a defined page type on a subsite, existing pages of that type will remain on the subsite. The administrator (or another user) can later change it to a type that is not blacklisted after the page is published; however, once a user does that, that "grandfathered" pagetype will no longer be available to the published page. + +For example, say a subsite user publishes a new Company Page before it was forbidden by an administrator. Later, a user with full administrative rights decides to disallow Company Pages from being created on the subsite. This restriction will only apply to all future pages that are published, but not to existing Company Pages. The full administrator (or any user with sufficient publishing rights) will have to manually convert any published Company Pages on the subsite to that of another allowed type. \ No newline at end of file
