Here you can enter one or many class names for this page. In Designer, you can create special CSS classes that will affect all pages with these class names. Separate multiple class names with a single space.
Page Priority
If your site has the Site Search module installed, this priority can help you shape your search results by making some pages more important than others. The default value is Normal.

Start & End Date
Here you can specify when you want this menu and page to be displayed on the site. If you leave a date empty it means forever. For example, if you created a page that you wanted to be displayed staring on Monday morning and then remain on the site forever after that date, you would choose the date and time for the start date and leave the end date blank.
