However, since you are a manager, you have special privileges as an administrator of the site and have many advanced functions available to you.
You can log into the administrator area by going to the admin login page eg:"www.examplesite.com/administrator" and enter your username and password.
What is the 'Article Manger'
All of your articles are managed from the Article Manager. You can get to the Article Manager by clicking on "Content", and then on "Article Manager". The Article Manager is your one stop spot to manage all of the articles on your site.
1 - List of Articles
This is the list of articles that have been written for your web site. People who have author permissions or higher can write articles. After they are written, they will appear here unpublished. It may be your responsibility to review and publish these articles.2 - Published Status
This shows if the article is published or not. When an article is published, it can be seen or linked to. If it isn't published, no normal user can access it. Click on the icon to change an article's published status. If you see an orange caution symbol it means the article is "Pending"; someone specified a specific date when it should be published, and that date hasn't arrived yet.3 - Front Page Status
This shows a if the article is being shown on the front page or not. This can also be changed by clicking on it.4 - Order
This will tell you what order the article is in in its category.5 - Archival Buttons
These are the buttons you use to archive or unarchive content. Archiving content is similar to not publishing content. The difference with archiving is that no one can edit it when it is archived. You will know if a document is archived, because the text will be gray and it will say '[Archived]' after it. The published and front page statuses will also show a different icon.Any administrator can unarchive content. Archiving content simply stops anyone from modifying it, and alerts them that this is no longer needed.
6 - Access Level
This shows which users can access the article. Marking it as "public" will allow anyone who comes to your site to see it. Marking it as "registered" will require the user to have an account before they can see it. Marking it as "special" will require users to be in charge of other people on your site. This includes anyone who can submit articles.
7 - Sections and Categories
Your site can be divided into sections. Within these sections can be multiple categories. Within these categories are your articles. Take a look at this example chart showing the sections and categories of a car dealership site.web site
- Section – New Cars
- Category – Chevrolet
- Article – HHR
- Article – Corvette
- Category – Saturn
- Article – VUE
- Article – Sky
- Article - ION
- Section – Used Cars
- Category – Ford
- Article – Focus
- Category – Dodge
- Article – Ram
- Article – Grand Caravan
Some people don't want to have multiple sections and/or categories for their content.This is perfectly fine. You don't have to have more than one section and/or more than one category.
8 - Article Management Buttons
Use the "copy", "edit" and "trash" buttons to manage your articles. Use the check boxes on the left of the screen to choose which articles to apply these actions to.If you accidentally delete an article you need, don't panic! Let your webmaster know, and he/she may be able to recover it for you.
