Site Pages

"Pages" on the BAS website contain information about the club and don't change frequently. They include the about page or the auctions policy. They almost always appear in the primary navigation bar at the top of every page, or in the footer navigation.

Adding a new page

  • Start on the new page editor
  • Open the page settings (by clicking on the rectangular icon in the upper right-hand corner of the page)
  • In the "Page URL" section, give the page a short, easy to spell URL.
  • Set the post author to be "BAS Webmaster" (and deselect your own name).
  • Using the text editor, give the page a title, then type the body of the page.
    • You can read more about how to use the text editor to create a good-looking page here.
  • Important: After finishing, make sure to publish the article! (Click "Publish")

Question

  • Have you remembered to publish the post using the publish button?

Adding a page to the navigation menu

After a page has been created and published, it can be added to the navigation menu. First, start by going to the navigation settings.

The "Primary navigation" is the list of links that appear at the top of each page. Only the first 5 links appear! All additional links are collapsed into a ... section.

The "Secondary navigation" is the list of links that appears at the bottom of each page. There is not a limit to how many links appear here (except that there should not be so many links as to make it look cluttered).

When adding a new page to the navigation, give it a short, clear name and then include the page URL. (You previously set the URL when creating the page). Then, click the green + button next to the new entry. Finally, click the "Save" button at the top of the page.

Important

After adding a new link, go to the home page and click the link to make sure it works. It's not good to have broken links on the site!
