Adding Text & Images

Adding Content

To add text and/or images to your site, click on the + content link in the content container where you want to put your new content.  (Most pages will only have one content container, but for those pages that have more than one, chose the one where you want your content to appear).  When you click on + Content, a select menu appears as well as a title field.  The select menu contains the different types of content that can be added to a site.  To add text and/or images, chose this in the select box (is the default chose), type in a title and click the submit button.

Adding Text
After you add a new “Text & Images” content block, you can edit this new block by clicking on its “edit” link.  This will reveal an HTML editor where you can type text.  Alternatively you can copy text from a Word document and paste it into the editor.  We strongly recommend that you use the editor’s “Paste from Word” tool  paste_from_word_icon.gif (i.e. click on this tool’s icon in the editor and paste into its field first, and then click its OK button).

Adding Images
