Adding Content

Now let's add some content to your site. Assuming that you already have logged in to the Admin Panel, navigate to //**Content -> Pages**//. Right at the bottom left of the screen, click on **Add New Content**.
This will take you to the screen where you choose the settings for the page that you will create and type its content. We will only describe the Main tab here, not the Options.

Set page settings and type content

  1. Start by selecting the content type of the page. For a normal page you just use the default, which is **Content**.
  2. Then you select the title for the page.
  3. Next select the text that will appear in the menu. The menu text can either be the same as or different from the title.
  4. If the page you are adding is supposed to be a sub-item to another page, then you select the parent page among the existing pages.
  5. Then select what template to use for this particular page.
  6. And lastly, add the actual content of the page. For this you can either use a so-called WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor or type the HTML code directly. This can be set in the Site Admin -> User Preferences.
  7. Finally click one of the buttons at the bottom:
    • Preview -- to preview the page without saving or leaving the editing window
    • Submit -- to submit the changes and return to Content » Pages
    • Cancel -- to return to Content » Pages without applying any of the changes you have made
    • Apply -- to apply the changes you made, but still staying in the editing window
