Instructions
Adding Content Types
- After you have chosen a website section to update make sure you are viewing the ‘Content’ tab
- From the ‘Content in this section’ select the green 'Add content' button
- Select the content type you wish to use from the list or alternatively you can type in the name of the content type in the Filter search box
- Click on the name of the content type to add it into the section
- Enter a name for the content type. This will not be displayed on the published page. It will only be visible as a name for the content type within Terminal four CMS for you to reference
- Proceed to fill in all of the fields in the content type. The * next to an element identifies that the element is required.
- Once you have completed all of the required fields click the 'Save changes' button to save your content type as a draft.
- When you are ready to publish your section and content types make sure you ‘save and approve’ any changes. You can also approve a content type using the blue ‘Actions’ drop-down button and then clicking ‘Approve’.
If you are unable to see or add a specific content type it may need to be enabled in your branch / section. Please email webteam@lincoln.ac.uk for support.
