Update Page

The Update page is used to name pages and establish the page's position with the site structure. Select from the following options:

Navigation Link

This is the link that will appear in your left side menu bar.

Page Navigation Type

Internal web page: This option will be used for most of your links. By selecting this option, you are dictating that this link will be for a new page within your Web site.

Physical File: This is the file name that will be used for this page. Each page must have a unique physical file name. If you choose a name that already exists for another page, a warning message will appear. This file name cannot have any spaces—just letters, numerals and underscores.

Page Title: This is an optional field. The text that you enter into this box will appear in the title area of this page. It is recommended that you include a title for each page. Generally, this will be the same as the Navigation Link name.

User Side Security: By default, all new pages will be accessible to the general public. If you click on this check box, you will be able to secure this page so that it can only be viewed by web site members with a username and password. (For more information on this feature, contact Product Services.).

Banner Graphic: Each page of your web site can have a banner graphic at the top of the page. You can use this tool to select a banner graphic from the library or add a new one.

Website link: This option will be used for linking to a specific web site address. This could link to a web address on some other external website OR it could link to a file within your Web site.

Type: Decide whether clicking on this link will bring your website users to a new website window or keep them within the current window.

URL: Type in the full web address of the desired destination making sure to include the http://. Also, you can save yourself some work by going to the desired address in another browser, copying the web address out of the address bar and pasting it into this field.

Menu Opening link: This option allows you to use your first level links to organize or categorize your links without having to put any content on this page. When a user clicks on one of these links, the level 2 and level 3 links under this link will appear; however, the user will not actually go to a new page. This option will be used on a very limited capacity.

Navigation Link Status

This will allow you to temporarily make a page inactive. When inactive, the page will still exist but it will not be part of the navigation links on the left side. This will default to “active” for all new pages.

Navigation Order

Use this drop down to select where in the navigation this link will appear.

Navigation Level

Level 1 links are the main links on the left side. Level 2 & 3 links are the lower level links that users can get to by first clicking on a higher level link.

When done, click Add to add the new page and it's time to start adding content to the page using the Detail page.
