Lesson 7.7: Add/Edit Content on a Publishing Page

You can publish text, images, files, calendars, and lots more on your Web Site Publishing Pages. After you add or modify content, the changes take place immediately if the Web Site Administrator has chosen to automatically post all publishing changes. Otherwise, your new posting will have to be reviewed and approved before it's posted.

Go to a Publishing Page in your Web Site (usually your home page is a publishing page).         Click on the Edit Page button. You will be taken to an edit/preview mode of your page where you can add/edit content.       View the "Edit Content On This Page" Page.  This page is an edit/preview page that shows you the basic layout of the web page you are currently working on. On this page you can:   Add a posting Edit a posting Move a posting Delete a posting   View "Click to insert a New Posting Here" Link If you click on this link you can create new postings with new content to add to your page. You can also change the order in which your postings appear on the page. View Content in Second Posting. In the diagram to the right, the second posting consists of a title, description and logo graphic. View Content of Third Posting. In this posting, there is only a graphic of an horizontal rule. Notice that each posting has a different layout, however, the two together affect the way the entire page looks. View Buttons for Moving Postings on Page. These buttons are for moving a posting up or down the page until you place it in the area of the page that suits you.     View Posting Edit Buttons. At the bottom of each posting consisting of content, there is a navigation to help you customize the posting: "Edit Posting"; "Change Layout of Posting"; "Copy Posting"; and "Delete Posting."         View How Postings Make Up a Web Page.   Each page is divided into vertical sections called postings. To better understand postings, take a look at this web page diagram. Each gray area represents a posting where you may have different elements of your site. Each posting has its own layout and is populated with content and layout individually. Then all of the postings go together to build the entire page. Think of each posting as a different section of your whole page. The postings below are labeled A through E, however, using the buttons from arrow D above, you could move posting E to follow posting B and posting A down to the bottom of the page.
