Adding a Page

To add a page to your site

• go to Add content in the gray toolbar at the top of your browser window
• select the type of page layout you'd like, either Article for a main column and right sidebar, or Article wide for single content area
• Give the page a title
• Set the Section which dictates which group can edit the page
• Add your content. See Editing an Article

At the bottom of the editing form, there are several settings that need to set for the page, starting with Menu options.

Menu options:

• Check the box to provide a menu link, and enter the text for the link.
• Description is not necessary
• Set a parent item:
  - if it will be in your main menu (visible all of the time), select [dept] main menu
  - if it should be nested under one of the main pages, click the drop down menu and select the appropriate page
• Weight determines where in the menu the item appears. You can set it here or manage that in the menu interface.

Domain Specific Paths:

To avoid conflicts with other sites, and ensure that your page's URL always includes your subdomain (dept.barnard.edu is a subdomain), always set a domain-specific path for the page. This does double duty as the site does not recognize the menu hierarchy, and the path to a deeper page must be set here.

Find your subdomain and enter the page's path so that is the same as what was entered under menu options. For example, for a main menu item titled Major Requirements, you would enter major-requirements.

Publishing Options

Until Published is selected in this section, the page will remain in draft state which is not visible to visitors.
