Everything in the site is stored in folders. You can nest folders to create any structure you want to organize content.

1. Add the folder

   Here we'll add a folder inside the my folder. You can add a folder to any folder you have priviledge to add new items.

   Select Folder from the Add new item menu to add it.

   

2. Name the folder

   Once you have added the folder you should give it a short name and a title. Short names should be one word and lower case. They are used in the URL path to the document/folder/item on the site. The title will be displayed prominently in the site so capitolize it appropriately. You can always change it.

   

3. Add content

   Now you can add items to your folder, including other folders. Select an item to add from the Add new item menu. See add a document for an example.

4. Folder display

   By default when you browse to a folder, a folder shows a view that lists the titles of each item it contains plus the description of each item.

   If you want to show a document with structured text or HTML that contains links and other text you do the following (I'll make this into a separate help doc later):

   • Create a new document
   • Make the short name of the new document equal to index_html -- This is the magic short name that tells the system to show the document instead of the default folder display when "viewing" a folder. Any folder can have an index_html document for this purpose.
   • Enter a title and content for your index_html document.
