Creating a New Page Select Add a New Page from your Administration Panel to create a new node. From here you will enter information into the designated fields of your website editor and create your new page. This editor allows the administrator to change and create pages as easily as the writing of an email. In the editor you will be able to view or change the following elements of the page: Title The title area corresponds to both the heading of the page and name given to the page in your internet browser. This field is compulsory, meaning that information must be entered into this field for the page to save. Your title should be a very brief summary of the content on your page, for example, a page explaining your business, could be titled About Us or About [your business name here] Menu Settings The menu settings area allows you to determine which menu this item appears under and the name of the item in the menu. You may wish to add your new page to your primary links menu; to do this select Menu Settings located beneath the Title box. Assign your page a menu title (this is the title which will appear in the primary links menu). You may also choose whether you wish to add this page directly to the primary links menu or provide this new page as a secondary item beneath an existing Primary Links Menu item. For example, you may wish for your new item to appear under the About Us section of your website as a subsection called Staff. To do this, select the parent item you wish this new web page to appear under, in this case About Us. Select the Weight of the menu item where the relevant option appears. If one menu item has a heavier weight than another, then it will appear below or to the left (depending on the type of menu) of the menu item with the lighter weight. The specific numbers or distance between numbers does affect the position. support@ 2
Weight Diagram - 50 50 50-50 Once you submit your new page, it should then appear beneath your desired section. To learn more about rearranging the order of your menu items please see Manage Menu. Body/Content Area This is the content area for the page s body. Here you will be able to write or paste in content and format that content. You also have the ability to link to other pages, files for download as well as insert images into the body. If you wish to read more about these features see Inserting/Editing an Image and Linking a File within a Node of this manual. These sections include information covering: Inserting images and editing inserted images within your website Inserting and editing links within your website Uploading and linking files within your website Note: Should you wish to embed code, toggle off the page s rich text editor by selecting "rich text editor located beneath the editor itself. This will then load the editor as a plain text view to which you will be able to paste in any code. If you would like to include non html code within your page s content body, for example PHP or JavaScript, please contact. This would require an additional input format for your code to be functional. You may also switch back to view the full rich text editor again once you have added any code by again reselecting rich text editor. support@ 3
Input Format After creating or editing a page you may notice that your page is not formatted and only appears as plain text or that inserted images do not appear at all. This may be due to an incorrect input format being selected. When editing or creating a new page, remember to select the Full HTML option located under Input Format. Page Revisions If you do not yet feel comfortable when editing the website, it may be an idea to create a revision of the page prior to editing the page s content. This is particularly useful when doing large content changes, or working with complex formatting, scenarios in which challenges or mistakes may arise. To create a page revision, select the Revision Information link from beneath Input Format and click the Create new revision checkbox. It may be helpful to include some information regarding the page s content and formatting within the Log message text area. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and select Save. If an error does occur during the editing of a page, such as accidentally deleting content, first check whether the mistake has been saved. If the mistake has not been saved, calmly navigate away from the page without saving and begin editing the page anew. If the mistake has been saved, simply navigate to the page and select the Revisions tab, located to the right of the View and Edit tabs at the top of the page. You will then have the option to select Revert from a list of page revisions to return the page back to its former content and formatting. File Attachments The file attachments area will allow you to upload files to your website. This can be useful for uploading files and for downloads such as PDF documents. Once a file is uploaded, it is given a URL which can then be copied and used to link to items in the page s content body. support@ 4
Note: After uploading a file it is often useful to link it to an item/word in the content s body area. Uploading and linking files is covered in Linking a File within a Node in this guide. Once you have made the changes you wish to make, select Save located at the bottom of the page. Please remember to save all work as unsaved changes will not occur until they have been submitted by selecting Save. URL Path Settings URL Path determines the page s URL. For example a URL path of home will give the page the URL of: www.yourwebsite.com/home. URL Path Settings are a handy tool when it comes to both search engine optimization and providing links in other mediums of advertising. It is recommended that when creating a URL path that you use a specific and short description of the page, generally the page title. If the URL path is more than one word, it is best to use hyphens to separate the words, e.g. about- us instead of aboutus. This makes the URL easier for the user to read and search engines won t be able to easily recognise words if they are not split in this manner. Editing an Existing Page To edit a page, select the Edit tab located at the top of the page you wish to edit. You will then be taken to the editor for that page s content, allowing you to update, add or remove text, images and files from that specific page as desired. Note: Only the administrators who are logged into the system will be able to view the Edit tabs located on each page. Content pages on the website are editable with the exception of those which include automated forms or search facilities (E.g. Contact us and Search Business Listings.)

Managing Blocks We have already introduced how to add and manage pages on your website. Blocks are a similar, but different concept. A block is a piece of content that may sit on the sidebar, as your website s footer or elsewhere on your site across multiple pages. For example your copyright information might be at the bottom of every page on your website, and we don t want to have to type the footer every time you create a new page. To achieve this we create a block and assign it to appear on the pages and the positions we want it to. From your admin panel you should have an option to manage blocks. If you select this you will see a page where different blocks are assigned to the various regions on your website. If you already have a block containing your copyright information it might appear in the footer region. A block that contains a sub menu might appear in the left sidebar region. There are different means to edit or update a block s contents. Generally you can choose configure next to the block s name and edit the content s much like you would a normal page. Sometimes this is not possible, for example if the block is a menu you will need to go via your admin panel to manage that particular menu instead. You can change where the block appears by dragging the order around in the manage blocks page, the same way you would rearrange a menu on your site. To add a new block click the Add Block tab. After typing the contents that you would like to appear in that block you can choose what pages it should appear on (the default is to appear on all), and after clicking to save the block you can choose which region it appears in by dragging and dropping it into position in the list. support@ 18

To upload the Rotor image you will need to click Browse and select the filename of the file you would like to upload. Click Update. You are able to add Alt text, and and Image title in this section as well. The Alt text is a description of the image that will show up in browsers that do now allow images to be viewed.
