Edit the content of an existing page

Each page you create needs to have its own content that people will want to read on your website.  Content includes headings, paragraphs of text, downloads and any images that you want to show on this page of your website.

 

Before starting these steps, make sure you have the
'Pages and Content' section selected in the Base Module.

 

Step 1: Select the category that contains the page you want make changes too, and select the page from the items.

 

 

When you select the page, you will see the page settings for the selected page in the right area.

 

Step 2:  To edit the content for this page we want to use the Rich Text Editor.  Press the rich text editor  icon to open it. 

  This icon can be found in many areas of your website and will open the rich text editor for the item you are editing.  It's not only pages that can use the rich text editor to edit their content, other items include panels, templates and products.

You will now see the rich text editor open in front of you, with any existing content that is in the current page. 

 

 

Step 3:  Edit the content in the area below the toolbar putting in any information you like.

 

Step 4: Once you have edited your content, save it by pressing  or pressing ctrl  s on your keyboard. 

 

Step 5: Close the Rich Text Editor once it is saved with the 'X' in the top right corner of the rich text editor (Be careful not to close the entire CMS).

 

Step 6:  You will now be back to the Page Settings screen.  Before we can preview the page we need to save the settings here by pressing the save button  again. 

 

Step 7:  Now we can preview the live page by pressing .  The website page will open in a new window showing us the current page

The Website page will now have any content you added!
