Configuring the Content Management System

The Content Management System page allows you to add, modify, or delete custom HTML pages for your Developer Portal.

The Content Management System page has a built-in WYSIWYG editor that is enriched with formatting tools similar to any word processing program. The Preview feature in Configuration Manager redirects you to that specific revision of that portal page. A separate style sheet and JavaScript can be customized and added to every page, thereby providing specific look-and-feel and even functionality. You can add role-based permissions to control who can view the pages.



Creating Custom Pages

  1. On the Content Management System page, click Add New Content.

    A page is added to the Custom Pages folder in Draft mode.

  2. Specify the Type as Page.
  3. Enter the page title in the Title field.
  4. Specify a Path for this page.
  5. Select the roles that will have access to this page in Access Permissions field.
