The most common content type you will use across your site is the Page. Pages fall under both sections and subsections and carry highly specific content.

For instance, if you have a section entitled About, you may want to highlight how your college interacts with the community. Since you would want to list specific community-related initiatives and events, a Page is the perfect place to do this.

Instructions

Creating a Page

  • Go to Content > Create Content > Page

The banner image from the assigned section or subsection will carry over to every page assigned to that section.

  • Add your content to the Body field

  • See below about optional fields

  • You will see a field named: Page URL

    • The value in this field is what will build the url for this page. It will auto-populate with the page title by default. If you would like use something different (like faq instead of frequently asked questions), this is where you make that change.

Prepositions like “to” and “of” will be dropped from the URL structure. All letters will be lowercase and all punctuation/spaces will be removed.

  • In the Menu Settings section, select Provide a Menu Link

  • Provide a Description of the page (this is important for search engine optimization and for ADA compliance)

  • Assign the page to the main section of the site it will appear under, called the Parent Item

The menu link title should match the page title, since the Section Front Pages are specifically meant to summarize the section.

  • Click Save to publish your content

Adding an Image to a Page

  • In the Images section, select Browse under Add a New File

  • Locate your file where you have saved it on your computer, and click Upload

Loading multiple images creates a gallery that opens in a light box.

  • You must provide Alternative text and a Title for your image

Adding a File to a Page

  • In the Downloads section, select Browse under Add a New File

  • Locate your file where you have saved it on your computer, and click Upload

It is strongly recommended that you only upload .pdfs.

You can add a maximum of five files to this field. If you need to add more, you must use the Forms/Files/Downloads Page content type.

  • You can provide a Description for your file

Adding a Video to a Page

  • In the Video section, paste the URL of the video you would like to include in the Video URL field

  • If you’d like to include a video description, add this to the Description field
