Add a Basic Page

To add a basic page:

  • Hover over 'content' on the top toolbar, then hover over 'add content', then click 'basic page'.
  • Enter in the following options:
    • 'General' tab
      • 'Page heading' - This is the title of the page. Use Title Case.
      • Keep 'Page type' as 'Default', unless you are an editor for the Sheriff or County Attorney's office
    • 'Contact' tab
      • If you would like a contact box on the right side of the page, choose a department or division in the 'Department/Division' drop down.
      • Other options for contact boxes are available in the 'Alternate Contact Callout' dropdown. If you use an alternate contact callout, check the box above the dropdown.
    • 'Menu settings' tab
      • 'Menu link title' - should autofill based on the page heading. This is the text that shows up in the left navigation for the page. 
        • If you ever want to change the title of the page, this field also needs to be updated (changes to the 'page heading' don't automatically update this field.
      • 'Parent item' - choose the parent page for your new basic page (where the page should 'live' on the website, in terms of hierarchy).
      • The rest of the settings on this tab can remain their default settings.
    • 'Search' tab
      • 'Available search display' - Change to 'yes' for most cases.
      • 'Audience Facet' - Choose your audience.
      • 'Department / Office Facet' - Choose which department or office the content is for.
      • 'Content type' - Most of the time, it is 'General information'.
      • 'Service area facet' - Choose appropriate tag.
    • 'Metadata' tab
    • All other settings should remain the defaults.
  • Click 'Save'.
  • Admire your new basic page.
