Editing Pages
editing a page
To see any of your web pages in the admin site, you click around just like your users will; click on any of the main sections in your site navigation and you'll find yourself on that sections' start page.
The big difference between your public site and your admin site is the fact that the admin site displays pages as editable forms.
n.b; You must click update page when you've finished making changes to a page.
Each of your pages shows a form consisting of the following elements:
Title
The title of the page.. Obviously. Whatever you enter here appears both at the top of the page's content and the top of the browser window. It's also used to identify the page in your users' History menu. For example, this page has the title Editing Pages).
Show title on page
Generally it's a good idea to display a page's title in the browser and the on the page itself, but this option lets you remove the title from the page for those rare occasions when you need to.
