Editing web pages with Contribute
14
Creating content
Note the web address shown below the Filename box. By default, Contribute will
save the new page to the same location as the page you were viewing when you
clicked New Page. You can save your new page to a different folder by clicking on
the Choose Folder button. To create a new folder, click on the New Folder icon
enter a name and click OK. Then click on the Select "foldername" button and on
Publish to nish.
Contribute warns you if you have not created a link to the new page. After you have
published it, remember to link to it from an existing page so that your readers can
see it.
Note: It is important to consider how you are going to organise the pages in your
website. You should group related information together in separate folders rather
than simply saving all your pages to the same location. For example, the website
used for this course contains a meetings folder with the sub-folders jcmb and
library.
If you are not sure how to organise your pages, contact your website
administrator. He or she will be able to advise, and may already have dened a
structure for your site.
Page titles: good practice
How page titles are used
The text you supply for a page title doesn't appear in the browser window itself, but it
will display in the bar at the top, as in the example below.
The title is also used when readers add your page to their bookmarks or favourites.
For example, if you added this page to your Favourites in Internet Explorer, it would
appear like this:
Search engines such as Google assume that the page title reects the page content
and so will extract keywords from it. When a page is found by a search engine, it is
the title that is displayed in the list of pages that match the submitted keywords. For
example:
Note: See the section File names: good practice on page 15 for advice on
choosing a le name.
