Course Pages
Basic pages are used for basic display information for the end user. For example, a page about the history of the department, a page detailing majors or degrees, or a page about study abroad programs are considered basic pages. A basic page is simply a title, with some text in the body, and an optional side bar. Images can be embedded within the body of the page. A course page is a custom content type used to add course information to your web site. These are not course pages specific to a particular semester or faculty member, rather it is general information about the course similar to what might be published in the bulletin. The reason you would want to create duplicate information for the bulletin content is that by having the courses in your site, you can link the courses to faculty members.
Step 1: Create New
BasicCourse Page
First click on 'Content.'
Then 'Add content'
Then Next click on 'Basic PageCourses'.
You should get to this page:
Step 2: Fill in Relevant Information
The minimum this page needs to have is Title and Body. The side bar is optional. See are Course and Number, Course Name, Course Subject, Course Number and Level.
Please note that if you have multiple course subjects and numbers, you'll need to click 'Add another item' to add additional fields. See below.
Step 3: Save
After you have saved the page, you will see the visual page. In this example, we used the side bar, but again this is optional. If you do not use the side bar, the left hand column will span the whole page. Here is how it will look.
Also see Adding Images to Content for assistance adding an image to a basic page. need to make changes to the Course Schedule in the sidebar, view the instructions here.
