Adding new content

- Click the Content Management link on the black Admin toolbar at the top of the screen, then select Create Content
- Here, you will choose the type of content to add. There are several special pre-defined content types - like Credential Types, FAQ, and Newsletter. The same general workflow applies to these content types, but this handbook page will focus specifically on creating new pages.
- Select Page.
- Give your page a Title.
- Category: Many of the old Newsletters and Press Releases were given taxonomy terms (which go in the Category field). These terms allowed similar content to be grouped together. This practice seems to have been largely abandoned by SITA, as no new Newsletters or Press Releases have been produced since 2009.
- The content on the page can be entered in HTML or using the Rich Text editor in the Body field.
- Using the Rich Text Editor is a good way to create links to existing pages and images or to use in-line images in a page.
- If you are adding an attachment that is not intended to be displayed inline but only linked to (such as a pdf document), please use the "File attachments" area of the form.
- If you edit a page that was originally saved in plain text, make sure to switch to rich text before saving your edit. Saving a page with the rich text editor on may add some addition HTML tags to your "Body".
- Remember to save your changes by clicking on the Save button on the bottom of the page
