The Create New Page Tool
New pages are created in the Page Designer view. This is the only way to create new pages within Microsite Management. To use the Create New Page tool, you must begin by choosing a parent page where you want to create link to the new page. This places the page appropriately in the page hierarchy and makes sure that you cannot create an orphan page (a page that is not accessible from any other page).
When you create a new child page, it is likely that you want the child page to look much like the parent page. For example, you might want to keep the same copyright information in the footer and the same list of links in the navigation bar. When you create the new page, you can select what content you want to copy from the parent to the child page.
Similarly, it is likely that you want the child page to inherit the same access controls as the parent. When you create the new page, you can choose to copy access groups from the parent.
- From the application-level menu, choose View > Site Map > Microsite Management (or Administration) > Page Administration.
- In the Page list, select the page that will contain a link to the new page, and click the Page Title hyperlink.
- From the Page Designer toolbar, drag the Create New Page tool to the position on the layout where you would like the new page link to appear.
- In the Create New Page dialog box, complete the fields.
Some fields are described in the following table.
The Approved and Draft status fields determine what content is displayed in the page preview. See Previewing a Page.- Click OK.
NOTE: By default, the Parent Page and View are the same as those in the linked-from page chosen in Step 2. These fields as well as the Description field can be edited in the Page Administration view; see Viewing and Editing Page Information.
