Adding a Content Item

Adds a new piece of content inside a category, with its own detail page.


Content items are what visitors actually read. Each item gets its own detail page automatically. Adding an item is the core action you will perform more than any other.

  1. In Edit Mode, find the category you want to add the item to.
  2. Click the pencil icon on that section to open the content manager.
  3. Find the option to add a new item.
  4. Enter a title and a tagline directly on the page, or enter them in the content manager.
  5. To add body content, open the content manager for that item and write in the content field.
  6. Click Save.

Long body content is written inside the content manager, not directly on the page. Titles and taglines are the only fields editable inline.

Content

Create categories, add items, edit copy, attach images and icons, reorder, and delete.

Editing Content

Update the title, tagline, or body of any existing content item.

Keeping content accurate and current is an ongoing task. Knowing the fastest path to each field means you spend less time navigating and more time writing.

  1. In Edit Mode, find the item you want to update.
  2. To edit the title or tagline, click directly on the text on the page and type your changes.
  3. To edit the body content, click the pencil icon on the section to open the content manager, find the item, and update the content field.
  4. Click Save.

Body content is only editable inside the content manager. Titles and taglines are the only fields you can edit inline.

Adding an Image to an Item

Attaches a photo to a content item and changes how the whole section displays.

Images change more than just the appearance of one item. They affect the layout of the entire section that contains the item.

  1. Make sure your image is already in the Media Gallery. If it is not, upload it there first.
  2. In Edit Mode, find the section containing the item you want to update.
  3. Click the picture icon next to the section.
  4. An upload panel opens showing your Media Gallery.
  5. Select an existing image, or click + New to upload a new one.
  6. Click Save.

Aim for files under 500 KB for content images. Large files slow down your pages.

Visibility

Control what appears on your homepage, navbar, footer, and in search.

Publishing and Unpublishing an Item

The master switch that controls whether an item is visible to visitors.

Publishing is the master switch for any piece of content. Turning it off removes the item from every part of your site instantly without deleting it.

  1. In Edit Mode, click the pencil icon on the section containing the item.
  2. Find the item in the content manager.
  3. Toggle the Published switch off to hide the item, or on to make it visible.
  4. Click Save.

Unpublishing a category hides the entire section and all items inside it. If you only want to hide one item, make sure you are toggling the published switch on that item specifically.
