Creating content

To create content: Create content > then select the content type you want to create, such as, Story/article, Page, FAQ, Golf Course, Tournament Format, etc. There are usually one or more fields within each content type. The following is an example of a page.

The Title and Body are common fields in many content types. The Title is used to create the page address or URL. Keep it clear and to the point.

The Body is where you put the text for the page. It's your story or tournament format or FAQ.

Input format allows you to change the manner in which you enter your information.  Leave it as Filtered HTML.

Use Revision information that might be useful to other authors who may edit your document later, or provide your rationale for making edits to your own or other people's content. The Revision information is not visible to users without the appropriate content editing rights.

Menu settings are used only if you are making this piece of content an item in one of your menus. It's the most efficient way to create menus. Another Handbook section you may find useful is Working with the Menu.

Comment settings are probably best set at the site level Content management > Comments > Settings, but can be changed on an individual piece of content.

You can attach files to many content types. The "Upload" module must be enabled, and then the content type has to be set to allow this.

URL path settings automatically create a URL based on your page title.  Don't worry about this item.

Authoring sets the time stamp and creator information. The other use for this section is to control the page or story order when they are based on the time and date it was created.

Finally, Publishing options: only "Published" items show up on the website. You can also promote content to the front page and make the content item sticky to the top of lists.

The final step is to Preview and then Save your page.
