Content management

Creating new content and managing your existing content can be done from the dashboard section “Content management”

Creating new content

Once you have created the necessary content types, you can start adding content.

Click on the content type you wish to add content for and you will be presented with the “create content form”.

Fill in the necessary fields and click ‘Save and publish’ on the bottom of the form, to save your content and make it available.

In this example you see the default content type form for “Article”.

Content publishing options

Publish and unpublished content

When saving your newly created content, there are two options available: save as published or save as unpublished.

In general, published content is content that is ready to be viewed publicly.

Unpublished content usually needs some more work or it contains content that can’t be viewed by the public yet.

Authoring information

Allows you to change the author and authoring date of the content.

Promotion options

There are currently two promotion options that can be used when creating API’s.

• Promoted to front page
