Select the "Add new page" button located above the page list

This will open the page setup window. The very first field you will see is "Type of Page"

There are 3 types of page we can create:
  • Internal (Default)
  • External
  • NoLink
For this guide we will be creating an Internal page however to learn more about each page type, check out this guide: When To Use Different Page Types

We will break down the setup into 3 main parts:

Page Details:

Page Name: This will be the name that is displayed on the CMS and on the live site

Page Filename: This is what will appear on the URL. You must use - instead of spaces i.e: test-page

Display Name: This can be left blank

Parent Page: This dropdown will let you select a parent page. Commonly used for specialism pages, team related pages etc. If this field was set to "jobs", then your URL would look like this www.sitename.com/jobs/test-page
