Managing Content

The backbone of managing your web content is knowing how to add and edit navigation (categories) and web pages easily.

Categories

The purpose of a category is to help your audience find the information they are after. Categories are often referred to as navigation, as they can be likened to the road your user travels on to reach their destination - the user clicks on a category, which takes them to a page.

Help your audience to navigate to your web pages by adding categories.

Pages

To edit your web page, you have a choice of using the WYSIWYG Editor, or the tabs on the Page form.

Generally, using the WYSIWYG Editor provides the greatest flexibility when editing your pages in terms of placement of images and links, however the tabs on the page form have formatting advantages.

For a detailed explanation of the advantages and disadvantages of using the Page Form Tabs in comparison to the WYSIWYG Editor, please view the relevant pages in the Website CMS Manual, attached below.
