Procedure: Content Management
I want to create a new page via Drupal. Where do I start?
- Open and login to your website: http://(your website address)/user/login
- Click "Create Content" in the left-hand navigation bar. Click "Content Page" to create a new page.
- A new page with the title "Submit Content Page" will appear. Add a title to the page. This title will be the main headline on your page.
- Proceed with adding content to the new page. If you are copying and pasting content that you have already written in a Microsoft Word document, save your Microsoft Word document as "plain text," close the document, and then re-open it and then copy the content into your website. This is one of the most important rules to remember when adding content to your website. If you do not do this, you will bring HTML coding from your Microsoft Word document into your website, which will make editing your website extremely difficult.
- When you are done, click "Submit" and your page is published. You have created a new page, but the page is not visible to your website's user until you create a link to it from either your website's navigation or from the content within your website. Learn more about creating links.
How do I change the fonts on my new page?
- Once you've created your new page and added content, highlight the content that needs formatted. Click the "Format" dropdown menu.
- All of the fonts that you need for your website have been pre-programmed into your website template. In the dropdown menu, there are listings for headings on your page in the order of importance that they should be presented. For example, Heading 1 should always be at the top of your web page as it is the largest font setting and thus should identify the most important content. Heading 2 is for identifying the second most important content on a page and so on and so forth. When you want text to be a normal paragraph font, set the font to "Normal," which is the default setting.
