Under the Content tab or on the Dashboard, you will see a link to Pages. This is where you can add, edit and control the pages of your site. To add a new page, click the Add link below where it says Pages.
This will open the page editor.
As always, when you are editing or creating a page, do not forget to save often. This will prevent you from losing any work.
DisplayThere are usually five options for display.
|
LayoutThis allows you to choose the layout of your page. Often you are given the option of “Two-column” which has a main content area and a side bar of info or “One-column” which is just a main content area. |
ParentThis “nests” the page as a subpage of another “parent” page. By selecting a parent page you will create a hierarchy of pages. |
Name (Short)How the page name will appear in the site’s navigation. It does not have to be the same as the page title. |
Title (Long)How the page name will appear at the top of all other content. It does not have to be the same as navigation name. |
ContentThis is where you put the body text that you would like on your page. You can add pictures, links, etc, and with the tool bar, you have the ability to use the editor like you would any word processor. |
Under Content > Pages you will see a list of the existing pages. To the left of each page there is a link that says Edit. Click on this link to edit the desired page.
You cannot paste a photo or PDF into the editor tool, only images and PDFs that have been uploaded to the File Manager. Please see Adding an Image from the File Manager to a Content Page in the next section for instructions.
In this tab, you are able to upload a photo or chose an existing photo in the system to use as the header photo. Note that this photo must adhere to the image sizes specific in the CMS.
Here you can choose a photo from your computer and upload it to the page. This tab allows you to title the photo, as well as make a caption for the photo. All photos added to this section will be included in the gallery that will automatically appear in the top right of your page's content. This is great to use if you have more than one photo for a specific page. All photos should be no more than 1,000 pixels tall. Learn more about adding photo galleries.
Here you can upload a PDF to your page and manage your PDFs as well. The title you give the PDF will be the link that is displayed on the page of your website.
This section is customized to your site, so it may not be relevant with your design. Here you can edit content in the side bar on internal pages.
Here you can choose which callout graphics you want to show up on the page if these are included on your site. Callouts usually appear in the side bar on pages with a two-column layout. Learn more about adding a callout to your site.
