Creating a Web Document
When creating a new web document the following process should be followed:
- Create a new web document in a draft state.
- Edit content by authoring new content to convey your message to the intended audience. This includes adding any images or attachments to the document.
- Test the document before publishing it. Use the preview function to ensure that it behaves as expected. Remember to check the document in a variety of browsers.
- Publish the document to make it available on the website.
To create a new Web Document
- From the Site Manager Website view, click the folder you wish to view web documents from.
- From the Action bar, click the New button.
- The New Document window will be displayed.
- From the Partition list, click the partition you would like this page to belong to. This is so that when a document contains interactive data it will be collected from or stored in the correct partition. For example, a Website may contain a registration form. This is associated with a partition so that when a Contact registers they will be added to the correct partition.
