In the Layouts editor #

1. New layout of type Header / Left / Right / Footer.
2. Link header, footer (and pre_footer if wanted) to the shared layouts; build left and right.
3. Publish, then point the article mapping at it (Link other layout on the mapping) or create a new mapping above it.

With templates #

1. On the media design, explayouts/layout.tpl already arranges left and right in a Bootstrap row for layout_4.

Which to choose #

Keep the old layout until the new one is checked; switching the mapping is one step back.
