Clicking on the Content link will take you to a list of all content on the site. From here you can perform the following tasks: 

  • Filter for Content on the site using the provided filters. 
  • Quick access to visit or edit the relevant pages on the site. 

WYSIWYG Editor 

WYSIWYG is short for “What You See Is What You Get.” It is a type of form control used frequently on the site that allows you to style text areas. You can make text bold or italic, create links, bullet or number lists, and embed Media (images, videos, etc.) 

Embedding Media (Image, Files etc.) 

Select ‘Insert from Media Library’ option to insert images and files as shown in the screenshot below. 

When adding Media you will be prompted with a popup. 

On left there are three links: first one to upload an image (allowed types: png, gif, jpg and jpeg), second to upload a file (all file types), and the third one to upload publications (allowed types: txt, doc, docx and pdf). 

After you choose and review your media, there is an option to ‘Edit media’ which will allow you to add alternate text, caption and align the media as shown in the screenshot below. 

Copy/ Paste from MS Word 

To copy/ paste content from Microsoft Word document, select ‘Paste from Word’ option as shown in the screenshot below. It allows you to paste content from Word and maintain original content formatting. 

Content Revisions 

Drupal creates a new Revision every time a Node is updated. This allows you to track how the Node has changed over time on the site. It allows you to Revert back to a previous state if needed as well. 

  1. The Revision column shows you when Revision was made and who was responsible for the Revision. 
  2. A revision log message helps inform users of the changes that were made to the Node. It is not required to create a log message, but it is encouraged as it makes it easier to track changes over time. 

Media 

Similar to the content overview page, clicking on the Media link will take you to a list of all Media on the site. You can perform the following tasks:
