Adding a new page to your school parent page has additional steps that need to be completed before adding modules. This tutorial will walk you through the extra steps that are required.

Begin by clicking "Copy" within the page functions from your school home page.

Your "Settings" will appear.

 

1) Begin by inserting a page name and page title.

2) Use the pull down menu to select your school's home page as the parent page. Then select where you want the page to be inserted at by using the pull down menu at "Insert Page".

3) Keep the "Include in Menu" box checked unless you want to hide the page.

4) Assign your permissions for the page.

5) Under "Copy Page", use the pull down menu to select your school mission statement page as the page to copy from. (This page has the necessary modules that need to be copied to new school pages.) After you select the page, the modules that are on that page will appear.

6) Keep the "Title" as new so the title you named it previously will remain. Click the reference buttons for the other modules so that when  a change is made on one module, it will change on all other references of it within the website.

7) Click "Update" to save.

Your new page will have two banners on it. One for the church and one for the school.  The website is set up to automatically add the church banner and church links to every new page. You will need to delete the church banner and church links.

Click on the "Settings" button for the church banner.

 

Scroll all the way to the bottom of the settings and click "Delete".

You will need to do the same thing to the church links. Click on "Settings" and scroll to the bottom and click "Delete".

Next, select the "Settings" for your Teacher Links.

Initially when you add a new school page, the Teacher Links wil not be wrapped or in a drop down box.

 

Under Link Settings,

1) Change the "Control Type" to "Dropdown".

2) Change the "Wrap Links" to "Wrap".

3) Click "Update".

Finally you will need to go into the "Settings" of the School Navigation Links.

1) Change the "Wrap Links" to "Wrap".

2) Click "Update".

NOTE: If your site has more than one set of school links, then you will need to repeat this step for each set of links.

You can now add modules to complete your page.
