Adding Content

Content Pages are used 99% of the time to create what visitors are able to see and read. Below is an explanation of each field you will encounter when creating a new pages. You can learn about Content Types here.
- Title
Depending on the direction taken by your Account Manager, the title may or may not appear on your pages. Instead, the title indirectly appears in your browser window, at the top left, next to your Site Name. Note: Titles can be useful for search engine optimization so choose your words correctly. - Menu Text
This is the text (or button) that users click on to navigate your website. this is what makes up your Menu, often referred to as Navigation - Parent
Use Parent when you are creating sub-pages. For exmaple, you want to create "Meet our Staff" and place it under "About Us". About Us will be your Parent page and Meet our Staff will be the child, or sub-page. - Template
In most cases you will see 2 templates. One for the homepage and one for the inside pages, or content pages. Select the layout of your choice using the dropdown. - Content
This is your Editor. Use the editor to add text, files, and images. We use TinyMCE and you can read more about it by visiting their website here.

Optional Elements
In some cases (and depending on the template you select) you may see additional fields called Callout (Left) or Callout (Right). A three column design will show both will a another may only show one, again, it depends on the template and how it was designed.
A callout allows you to add certain elements to your pages... Callout a Sale or a New Product anywhere in the left or right columns. That it why we name them Callout (Left) or Callout (Right).
Callouts are used in conjunction with Global Content Blocks. Simple add the Global Content Block code {global_content name='Example'} in the Callout field.
