6. Introducing Web Pages (Articles)

The great majority of pages you see across your website are straightforward pages of text, sometimes supported by images, the occasional table and so on.

These ‘pages’ are properly referred to as “Articles” and they are always found within the “Content” section of your Control Panel. Articles are chiefly reached by clicking on an item in the menu (tab) system, or you can create hyper-links to articles from within an article itself.

For ease of using common language though we can use Webpage and Article interchangeably throughout these help pages unless otherwise stated!

For example, you may have a menu item which points to a page showing your website policies. In this case, you'll create the article, and then you'll create the menu item to point to it.

Note that simply creating an article doesn't mean it will appear anywhere on the website. You pretty much always need to create a menu item to point to it.

Editing articles is almost the same as creating new ones, but with some key things you will need to bear in mind, so we will cover off editing articles separately.
