Content Comparison

Please refer to the Content Page Types list to see which components are available on a Basic Page.

...

1. Title
   Page title, without any branding (such as your site name).  70 character limit. 
   
   
2. Meta description
   The meta description is not displayed anywhere on the page.  It is not visible to visitors on the page.  It is strictly used for search results (search engine optimization or SEO) so it should - in 160 characters or less - contain information that would make this page findable during a search.  If you're not sure what to include in a meta description, try looking at other pages for ideas on how to word your description.  You can expand or decrease the space in the field by using the handle at the lower right.  You cannot increase the character limitation from 160.
   
   
3. Resource Catalogue?
   Check this box only if you wish this page to be added to the resource catalogue. The resource catalogue offers quick access to the tools and resources you need in your work, e.g., information, forms, policies, links, etc. and are organized on a listing page so you can sort, 
   
   

4. Under the grey heading bar called "Page content", you will choose which components you want to be included on this page.  If you're not sure which components you want, please refer to the list of component types. You can remove content types if you no longer want them but you cannot change a content type once it's there. 
   
   For example, if you choose 'Add text block', add your text and save but later decide you would prefer an image as well, you cannot change that type to a 'Text and Media block'.  If you no longer want the Text bock, you must delete it and add a Text and media block instead if you wish to incorporate a photo.  Hint:  if you need to do this, we suggest that you copy the content from the Text block, add the Text and media block, copy the text in, add a photo and then go back to delete the Text block, to save typing it all again.
   
   This is the body of your webpage and where you will spend most of your time while editing.
   
   Please visit the Types of components page for specific details about adding each component, including specific information about each type.

1. Before moving on to the Bottom page content, let's look at the options on the upper right of the screen, starting with Revision Log Message. Leave a comment to explain what changes you made.  This will be helpful if your page needs to go to a publisher to be published or for another editor in your department who may need to work on this page with you.

2. Menu settings. Click the option to provide a menu link if you are wishing the page to be nested under another page.  You will need to navigate to the parent

   link if you 

   link you are wanting this to be nested under.  For example, the page Blended work arrangements is to come under Every day tools & Resources.  To do that you will do the following:

   1. check under menu settings that you want to provide a menu link

   2. say what you want the menu link to be called - in this case Blended work arrangements

   3. scroll to the parent link - e.g., "Every day tools & resources" (NOTE: there is no fast way to get to the menu item other than to scroll)

3. Moving down to Bottom topic content
   You can add one or more 'call to action' buttons and/or images in the bottom topic content section.  These are meant to inspire the reader to click on them to DO something, such as "Call us" or "Read more".  This is helpful for some pages, for example, you could ask the reader to contact Human Resources. Below is what this bottom call to action button can look like:
