Activity #4: Create and edit an advanced page

 

Welcome to Activity #4! During this activity, you will be making the Goldy Gopher advanced page - final version using text from the Goldy Gopher advanced page - before version and photos from the Documents and Files for Training Google Drive folder. 

 

Create the advanced page

  1. Navigate to your Site Management. 
  2. Under the Content heading, select "Create an advanced page." 
  3. Copy the designated Title text from the Goldy Gopher advanced page - before version and paste into the Title field. 
  4. Select the appropriate Department and Category in the Department tab. 
  5. In the Access tab, select private (select public if making a page you want to publish on a live site). 

Note: We won't be doing this for the Goldy training page, but if you want to have your page appear on the top menu or under a drop-down menu, navigate to the "Menu Settings" tab at the bottom of the editing page and fill out the corresponding fields.

Add a carousel image

  1. Under the widgets tab, click the drop-down menu and select the "Add Carousel" option. (Note: The Carousel widget can be used to make a slideshow of images, but in this case, we're just using one image.)
  2. Select "Add Slide." (Note: Normally, you can give the widget a title and add text before the image or images, but in this case, we're leaving those fields blank.)
  3. Scroll to the Image field and click "Select Media."
  4. Find the Goldy2019.jpg image in your media library by searching for its name—this should already be uploaded if you have completed the activities for making a basic page. 
  5. Select the image and click "Place" at the bottom of the pop-up window.
  6. Click Save at the bottom of the edit page.
