Creating Folders

Folders must be created to store web pages, files, images, and other folders. The creation of folders is very simple within Zopen Publisher. Here is a simple step-by-step process.

1. Go to content management mode (see ???).

2. Once you are within this mode, navigate to the folder you want to add another folder within. This can be done with the left navigation tools.

3. From within a folder, click on the 'Add New Item' on the blue folder tab bar.

4. Click on Folder from the drop down list.

5. Enter the short name, title and description for this folder.

a. Short name: The name of this folder as it is seen within the URL path. For example, creating the folder for 'About Our Organization' you might choose to use the short name ot 'about'. The url would look something like: http://my.site.edu/about

b. Enter a title. Titles are used in the navigation and headers of web pages. Titles can be any text.

c. Description: Descriptions are useful searching and categorizing content. This is optional.

6. Click on the save button.

7. You are automatically placed within that newly created folder.
