Create pages

To create a page, perform the following:

  1. In the main menu, click Pages.
    The pages screen opens.
  2. Click Create a page.

    Optionally, you can create a page as a child of another page by selecting the checkbox of the parent page and clicking Create a page.

  3. Enter the name of the page.
    The page name is used to identify your page in the backend. It is displayed in the list of pages, different page selectors, navigation widgets and so on.
  4. Optionally, modify the URL.
    As you type the page name, URL is automatically populated. It is used to dynamically build the full URL of the page, so it can be accessed by website visitors.
    If you need to change the auto generated URL name, click the edit icon next to it.

    NOTE: The URL must be unique for each page.

    To change the URL structure, you must click on the Edit structure button. This enables you to edit the parent portion of the URL as well as the page URL name, for example, remove the parent page from the URL and have your page resolve form the website root. To restore the original URL structure, click the Restore structure button.

  5. Under Put this page…, specify the page location in sitemap.
    By default, it will be created at the root level. To select a parent page of your new page, select Under parent page... and choose under which page to place the current page.
  6. Under Show in navigation, select Yes to display the page in the automatically generated navigation widgets.
    If you select No, the page is not displayed in the automatically generated navigation, and it can be viewed only if linked or accessed directly.
  7. Under This a group page, select Yes, if you want to specify that the page is a group page.
    Group pages serve as containers for other pages. Group pages do not have their own content. When you open a group page it redirects to its first subpage (child).
  8. Click Continue.
  9. On the next screen, select the template you want to use for your new page.
    You can change a page template later.
  10. Proceed with adding content to your new page.
    For more information, see The WYSIWYG editor.
