Short Functional Description

Important

The English version of this Visual CMS documentation serves only as a basis and for developers and does not contain all details. More comprehensive documentation can be found in the German documentation.

CMS-pages can be changed by adding or editing widgets. The Visual CMS automatically generates a text widget with the page content for CMS pages, which are edited for the first time using the editor. The Visual CMS allows you to edit CMS pages in a fast and comfortable manner. Pages not edited via the Visual CMS still function as before.

Creating New Pages

New pages can be easily created using the Visual CMS:

  1. Activate the checkbox Create new content

  2. Enter a Title und optionally a unique Ident.

  3. Save

Hint

If you do not set any Ident., the editor will generate one.

You can also use the button Create new content at the top. Clicking this button will automatically activate the mentioned checkbox and clears the workspace.

Warning

When clicking button Create new content, any unsaved changes will be lost.
