Edit a Page

Once you have logged in, you should see some links under the "User Menu" to edit a page while viewing it. Select "Edit this page" and the editor will show up, along with other fields to edit the page title and the various modules.

Editing a page shouldn't be that hard. The editor provides a standard interface to write text and format it as desired. It comes with its own help.

The editor adds the ability to browse for links and images and other resources like PDF and DOC files.

Note for advance users:

In some cases, when saving a page you might want to uncheck the "use relative URLs when saving" option, so local links will be saved with the full path. This is useful when saving pages to be included with the include module: this option will allow links included in that pages to work regardless of the page in which they will be included.

Insert a link

First highlight the text that will be created into a link then click on to link the text to a webpage or file.

Link URL:

You can insert a full URL (website address) for example: "http://www.ourparish.org.au/ourparish/news/" or you can have a relative URL for example "/ourparish/news/" if you don't know the path of the page or the file (e.g PDF) you can search for it by clicking on the browse icon.

For HTML pages the easiest way is to leave it blank and chose the page from the link list in the dropdown below.

Link list:

This is probably the easiest way to make a link. The list contains all the main pages in the website. select one from the list and click insert.

Target:

It is common practice that if the link is within the same website it will open in the same window but if the the link is outside our website or to a document (or PDF) then it should open in a new window.

Title: (tooltip) - This is not necessary

This is a small description that will be displayed on the screen when the mouse hovers over the link

Class:

This for advanced users.

Adding Color/Style

You can't add color or Style (e.g font) to your text unless it has been defined by your administrator. This is so your web pages look the same even if there is 100 pages.

To applay a predefined style select the text you want modified and then select the style from the menu.
