Creating Pages creating-pages

Open the Sites console.

Navigate to the location where you want to create the new page.

Open the drop-down selector using Create in the toolbar, then select Page from the list:

From the first stage of the wizard, you can either:

• Select the template you want to use to create the new page, then select Next to proceed.

• Cancel to abort the process.

From the final stage of the wizard, you can either:

• Use the three tabs to enter the page properties you want assigned to the new page, then select Create to actually create the page.

• Use Back to return to template selection.

Key fields are:

• Title:

  • This is displayed to the user and is mandatory.

• Name:

  • This is used to generate the URI. If not specified, the name is derived from the title.
  • If you supply a page Name when creating a page, AEM validates the name according to the conventions imposed by AEM and JCR.
  • You cannot submit invalid characters in the Name field. When AEM detects invalid characters, the field is highlighted and an explanatory message shown to indicate the characters that need removing/replacing.

The minimum information required to create a page is the Title.

Tap or click Create to complete the process and create your new page. The confirmation dialog asks whether you want to Open the page immediately or return to the console (Done). Select one to end the page creation process.

• If you choose Open, the Sites console opens the appropriate editor based on the template of the new page, either:

  • The Page Editor
  • The Universal Editor
