Create New Secondary Landing Pages
There are three ways to add new pages to Web sites in the CarolinaContent system. New pages can be added as sections, secondary landing pages, and native documents that are viewed as Web content. All three types of new pages can be added to ITS Web sites. New pages are added to the Help Web site by checking in new native documents.
Create New Sections
In the CarolinaContent system, links in the left navigation are called sections. To create a new section link, open a Remedy ticket and submit a request to the CarolinaContent team. Updates to sections change the site architecture and are made in a development environment. Section changes move through the development, testing, and production life cycle which is preformed by the CarolinaContent team on a weekly basis.
To create new sections:
- If you need a new section added to your ITS Web site, please submit a Remedy request to "ITS-ITS.UNC.EDU WEBSITE" or submit a trouble ticket through the online help request.
- Review the release schedule (.pdf) for development work.
Create New Secondary Web Pages
A secondary page is a template that displays additional pages within site sections. These pages do not appear in the left navigation of the site. Many sections of the ITS Web site contain secondary pages, but not all. If you receive an error message when attempting to link to content on a secondary page, submit a Remedy ticket to the CarolinaContent team to request a secondary page.
To create new secondary Web pages:
- Review the Create New Secondary Pages documentation to learn more.
Create New Native Documents
Native documents can be converted to a Web viewable format in the CarolinaContent system. The Help site is comprised of Word documents that are checked into the content server and converted to Web pages. These documents can also be pulled into the ITS sites if secondary pages are enabled.
To add new Help documents:
1. Create your document in Microsoft Word using the Help Doc Template (download a copy to your computer by right clicking on the link and selecting "Save Link As" or "Save Target As"). You can reference the Sample Help document with all styles as a guide which shows how Word styles correspond to HTML tags and CSS styles when rendered in the browser.
2. Open a browser and navigate to https://ccm-contrib.unc.edu/ccm.
3. Click the login link and provide your login credentials.
4. Once logged in to content server, click New Check In on the top navigation bar. Select “Content for the Help Site” from the drop-down menu.
5. Populate the appropriate metadata fields and select Browse… to search your computer for the new piece of content.
6. Scroll to the bottom of the form and click [Check In].
