District Basic Page

The most common content type you will use across your site is the Basic Page, which only has two displayed fields: Headline and Body.

You can use this content type to create for example an ‘About Us’ page.


How to Create a Page

  • Go to Content > Add Content > Basic Page.

  • Add the page Headline.

  • Add your content to the Body field.

  • Check the Publishing status checkbox if you are ready to make the page live on your site.

You can also uncheck this box in the future to unpublish a page.

  • Click Save to publish your content.

 


How to Edit a Page

There are two main methods of accessing the content you wish to edit on a specific basic page:

Method 1: Filtering Using the Content Overview Page

  • Navigate to the Content Overview Page

  • Type the title of the page or a keyword within the title in the Title textbox

  • Click on Filter

  • Find the page in the list and click on the corresponding Edit button


Method 2: Navigating to an Existing Page

Use the menu on your site to navigate to the page you want to edit. Click on the Edit button in the toolbar underneath the page title.


Revision Log

On any page you create/edit, you will see a right sidebar with the following fields:

The revision log is most important for major updates after the page/content is created. If you ever needed to revert to a past revision, having the log is helpful.

  • Enter a relevant message in Revision log message, for example: “Added link to new IPEDS report”

  • Make sure to leave Create new revision checked.

  • Check the Publishing status checkbox if you are ready to make the page live on your site.
