Why are site-wide changes easier in the new system?

0

In the old web system, the entire page design (except the sidebar menus and some of the text styles) was coded into every web page. This meant that in order to change the design, we would have to edit every single file on the website; since there are thousands of pages, this would have been an impossible task. Now we keep many elements of the design in centralized files, called “include files” because they are included in every page. This means that if we want to change the background color of every page, for instance, we just have to make the change in the include files; then all the pages on the website will instantly change as well, without us needing to touch them.
