CMS Create Web Page Web Part¶

This Web Part is used by the CMS WebMaster to add Web Pages to the site. Figure 1 shows the Web Part configured for the Page Template option.

The WebMaster can create Pages either by choosing a Master Page or a Page Template (based on Web Part configuration). The Master Page option creates a page that contains the content of the Master Page only. e.g. typically, the Master Page contains the Organization image header and the main navigation menu. This appears in the page. The Page Template option creates a page that contains the content of the Master Page and any Web Parts that are defined in the Page Templates file.

The Page Templates file contains the definition for one or more pages. Each page contains zero or more Web Parts that are added to the page. Each Web Part contains Properties that are set when the page is created.

Access¶

This Web Part is accessed by the CMS Admin Panel.
