Manual is designed to give a general overview on how to perform all the publishing tasks within your Jadu Content Management System (CMS). It should provide your Content Editors and Webmasters with all the information they will need in order to create and manage the content within your organization’s website. 10 Chapter One: Your Jadu Content Management System What is content management? A content management system (CMS) is a system used to manage the content of a website. Content management systems are deployed primarily for interactive use by a potentially large number of contributors. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content_management_system As with most of your CMS, the levels of control and the tasks you can perform can be completely customized for each individual user, therefore the experience of using your CMS will vary. For most, your CMS enables you to create pages for your organization’s website without the need for technical knowledge. This means that your organization as a whole can maintain and control the content displayed on your website by simply using your CMS, which is easily accessed via an Internet browser. Introduction to the Jadu Control Center Your Jadu CMS couldn’t be easier to use.

How to use your Jadu CMS forms Throughout the process of adding and maintaining content for use on your organization’s website, you will be required to enter information regarding content to be published via specific forms tailored to the type of content you are authoring. Content specific forms are laid out and operate in a consistent manner throughout many publishing tasks and below, we provide an overview of some of the common elements and functions. Basic form layout Although each form will ask you to provide different information regarding your content, their overall structure will be similar. All forms will consist of field titles and field entry areas. The information you wish to add should be entered into the form associated with the content type (i.e. News, FAQs, Document pages, etc.) your information refers to. 18 A basic form layout Dropdown menus can be used by clicking the black arrow to the right of the menu, then selecting the required option from the list of selections that appear. Tick boxes can be selected by clicking them with your mouse and clickable buttons are usually dark grey with white text. Basic form functions Within form areas you will notice that the * symbol will be present next to some of the field titles. This indicates that this field is required (mandatory), which means content must be present within this field in order for your information to be saved and ultimately used within your organization’s website. If you attempt to save your content without adding information into these required fields you will be presented with an error. In order to rectify this problem please ensure all required entry fields contain content and re-submit your form. The system will highlight where mandatory fields are missing If a field requires you to enter a date please be aware that the format for date fields is dd-mm-yyyy, you can also use the calendar to select a date, press the calendar icon in order to be able to select a date from the calendar. If a field requires you to enter a time please be aware that the format for time fields is hh:mm using the 24 hour clock. 19 If you are deleting any element from within your CMS such as an image or document you will always be asked to confirm that you wish to delete this element before it is deleted, helping ensure that elements are not deleted by mistake. If certain form content requires addition through a dedicated window/lightbox, you press the associated button to save the information you have entered, and the window will close. Please be aware that when a window opens you will only be able to enter or alter information within the window and not the page behind it. In order to add or alter information present on a page behind a window you must exit the window first. Within windowed forms you will have the option to close the window by using the X icon in the top right hand corner, please be aware if you do use the X icon to exit a window any information you have entered may potentially be lost if you have not saved it first. If you are asked to set a password for an item of content please be aware that the password you set will be case sensitive.

For the purpose of this manual we are going to use default CMS user set up, which consists of two levels of user: Administrator and Webmaster. (For detailed information on building your own custom workflows please refer to the Jadu CMS Utilities Manual.) Administrators will be given the least amount of control within your CMS. Their primary tasks will be to create and add content to your CMS e.g. document pages, downloads etc. While they will be able to author and manage content, they will not be able to publish it to the website as all content requires publication approval by a Webmaster. Webmasters are given broader access to the functions within your CMS. Their primary task and a key difference to Administrators set up within the system will be to approve content created by Administrators and to control what the end user will see on your website. Variations in workflow processes and additional user levels may be added in accordance with your organization's requirements. 24 Chapter Three: Preparing your content The key to great content is preparation The key to creating accurate and organized content is preparation. We recommend that all of your content is prepared before you even log on to your CMS. You may already have a number of documents, news articles or downloads that you wish to make available on your organization’s website or you may need to create fresh content. As numerous users within your organization will contribute to your CMS managed content, it is inevitable that the amount of content will begin to expand and over time, it is possible that the amount of information contained within the whole site will be vast. It is therefore important that content is relevant, engaging, accurate and organized. Start by writing your content in Microsoft Word® or some similar word processing application. It’s not necessary to be too concerned regarding formatting as you will be able to do this once you have copied your text into the Jadu Text Editor. Take into consideration the topic you are writing about and therefore the audience you expect to be reading it. Be brief and concise and remember most visitors will be there to find out about specific information, and are unlikely to want to have to read through 10 pages to get to that information. Assess the length of your information and the best way of handling it. For example, say you have a long policy document, it may be more practical to create a document that gives an executive summary and then make the full document available as a download. Prepare any images you may want to use and remember that they will need resizing to be in proportion with the rest of the images within your website. Consider that a lone page of information may well be interesting and informative, but think how useful it would be for the visitor to not only be provided with well written, accurate information but also with links to related follow up information, relevant news articles, related downloads and so on. When creating content for your site remember to add in any links to relevant or related information, documents, FAQs, downloads, etc. from within your website or external sites. This will enrich your content and therefore encourage visitors to revisit your site. Your Jadu CMS can be accessed any time of the day or night from any computer with an Internet connection and browser installed, so you can take your time drafting relevant and engaging content. (Access to your CMS may be restricted from outside your organization and may be dependent on security settings your organization may have in place). Once you have carefully created your content you will next need to consider a suitable filing structure for all your documents, downloads and images. We advise that a central filling system be created on a computer or server within your organization. This computer or server and the subsequent filing system should be accessible by everyone within your company that is likely to be creating or amending information for your website. 25 An example of a suitable filing structure This filing system will allow your organization to have a central, locally stored copy of all the content for your site. It will enable your organization to keep track of any additions or alterations that are made to documents, downloads or images without having to search an individual’s computer for a specific document, image or download. 26 Chapter Four: Navigation structure How to apply a navigation category to your content Every piece of content authored in Jadu requires assignment to a category from a list that represents your website’s information architecture. The system makes it very easy for you to add relevant categories to your content. For instances where a website’s information architecture may contain hundreds or more categories, the categories are arranged hierarchically to assist with easily locating and selecting relevant categories to the content you are authoring. Consider carefully where within your site’s categories your content should appear. Very often there will be just one subject area, but in some cases there could be two or even more. If you were a user where would you look to find the information you are adding? Only for a wide-ranging document should you consider using more than three navigation categories. ● When you start to add content to your organization’s website, press the Assign Categories button to open the Apply Categories window. The Apply Categories window ● ● Within the Apply Categories window there are two main panels and two buttons named Apply Categories and Cancel. If you wish to exit the Apply Categories window please be aware that any categories you have selected will be lost if you have not saved them first by pressing the Apply Categories button. Using your site’s navigation structure to apply a category to your content ● ● ● ● Within the dropdown menu situated at the top left of the Apply Categories window, select your organization’s navigation option. Once selected, your organization’s top-level-categories will appear in the left panel (top-level means these categories will be directly viewable from your website's homepage). Read through the list and decide which category you think your content would best fit into and click onto that categories title. The contents within the left panel will now change to a list of the sub-categories present within the selected top-level-category. 27 The Apply Categories window with sub-categories ● ● ● ● ● You will notice at the top of the new list is a link named Back, which allows you to move back to the list of the top-level-categories if you have selected an incorrect one. Also within this new content, above the sub-categories list, is an area containing a description of the selected top-levels-categories details. Although this maybe of some interest to you this information is used more for the function of the CMS rather than something you are required to use. If you wish to assign the selected top-level-category to your content press the Add: (your selected category name) button. Or you can continue to click into a sub-category and then sub-sub-category and so on until you have entered the category area you wish to assign to your content. Once you have selected your required category press the Add (your selected category name) button, once pressed you will notice your selected category name will appear within the right panel under the Selected (your organization’s navigation name) Categories area. The Apply Categories window with a selected category ● ● ● If you have selected an incorrect category, use the Remove button next to the category name and return to the left category selection panel to re-select your category, (make sure you remove the selected category from within your organization’s navigation if it has been automatically selected for you, before you start selecting a new category). If at the beginning of your category selection process you are already familiar with your organization’s category structure and you know the exact category you wish to assign your content to, you can use the A-to-Z links at the top of the window to find this category. Once the list of categories associated with the selected letter has loaded into the left panel, select the category you require and use the Add (your selected category name) button to assign this category as before. 28 The Apply Categories window with A-to-Z shown ● You also have the ability to assign more than one category to your content. You can repeat either process to select other top-level or sub-categories but remember only for a wide-ranging document should you consider using more than three navigation categories. 29 Chapter Five: Metadata What is Metadata? Metadata gives any kind of data context. Any item of data is a description of something. Metadata is a type of data where the something being described is data. Or, as it is often put, metadata is data about data. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metadata Metadata is used to label your content and describe it in order for other websites, search engines and your organization’s website itself to understand what your content is about. Standard Metadata consists of keywords relevant to your content along with a description of what your content is about, advanced Metadata gives you an array of information options that can be stored alongside your standard Metadata to give your content further meaning. How to apply Metadata to your content As you will be required to assign Metadata to every piece of content you create for your organization’s website, your CMS makes it very easy for you to add relevant Metadata to your content. ● When you start to add content to your organization’s website, press the Assign Metadata button to open up the Assign Metadata window. The Assign Metadata window ● ● ● ● The Assign Metadata window contains three main areas; the Standard Metadata area, the Content Schedule area and the Advanced Metadata area (the areas you will see will vary with the type of content you are creating). Each of the three areas can be hidden or shown by using the hide and show icons next to the titles of the areas (you cannot show more than one area at a time). Also present within the window are two buttons named Assign Metadata and Cancel. If you wish to exit the Assign Metadata window please be aware that any information you have entered will be lost if you have not saved it first by pressing the Assign Metadata button. 30 The Standard Metadata area ● By default, when the Assign Metadata window first opens, the Standard Metadata area will be shown. The Standard Metadata window ● ● ● ● ● ● Within the Standard Metadata area you will be shown two entry fields. The first field is named Additional Keywords. This field should be used if you feel that when you assigned navigation categories to your content, they did not effectively describe what your content is about (when entering additional keywords make sure they are all comma separated and are all entered in lower case). The Description field is the only mandatory field and all information you enter should be in lower case and contain no punctuation. Here you are required to type a general description of what your content is about. Remember when you compose your description to consider writing it from the point of view of your reader. Imagine if they were to perform a search what would accurately summarize the topic of your content. Once you have completed the appropriate fields within the Standard Metadata area you have a choice of either assigning the Metadata you have already entered or you can continue to add more specific Metadata in the Advanced Metadata area. If you choose to add the Metadata you have entered press the Assign Metadata button. Once pressed the data you have entered will be saved and the window will close. Or if you choose to enter further Metadata about your content, click the show icon next to the Advanced Metadata section. 31 The Advanced Metadata area The Advanced Metadata window ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Within the Advanced Metadata area you will be shown nine entry fields and two dropdown menus. You will notice that when you open the Advanced Metadata area numerous fields have been automatically populated. This information has been gathered from other relevant segments of your CMS. The Creator field is used to include the name of the creator of the content that you are adding. This field will be automatically populated with the name that you are logged into your CMS with, but this name can also be changed if required. If any of the content you are creating was contributed to by other parties, for example your content consists of photographs, illustrations or diagrams that were not created by you, these contributor details can be entered into the Contributor field. The Publisher field is used to add the name of the organization whose website you are adding content to. This field will be automatically populated with the name of your organization, but can be changed if required. The Rights field is used to add the name of the organization that has the rights to the content you are adding. Normally this will be your organization and is therefore what will appear in this field as standard, but can be changed if required. If the content you are adding comes from another source, e.g you are copying a document from a government site, within the Source field you should enter these original source details. The Status field is used to add the development status of your content, e.g. if the content you are adding is complete then it would generally be classed as V1.0 Public Consumption. As this is the general case for most of the content that you will create, this is what is automatically populated into this field, but can be changed if required. If the content you are entering concerns a wider area than just your local area you should enter these details into Coverage field. Typically this field will automatically be populated with the local area relating to your organization, but these details can be changed if required. 32 ● ● ● ● ● The Created date field is used to document the date your content was created on, the current date will be automatically populated in this field. Although this field can be edited if required, we advise for organization purposes, that it isn’t. If you are revisiting an item of content for the purpose of editing, you should enter the date these alterations were undertaken into the Modification date field. The Format.Medium dropdown menu is used to describe the type of media that you are creating for example if you are just adding a JPG picture and no other content, you would select the image/jpeg category. This type of content would be very unusual for you to add as the majority of the time, you will be creating or editing additional pages to your site referenced under the text/html selection. Therefore, the text/html selection is automatically selected for you, but you can choose other appropriate selections by using the dropdown list if required. The Language dropdown menu is used to describe the language that your content is written in. Although the dropdown menu will automatically show English as the default selection you can select another language if required. Once you have finished entering all the Advanced Metadata information you wish to, press the Assign Metadata button. Once pressed, the data you have entered will be saved and the window will close. 33 Chapter Six: Content scheduling and locking Content scheduling You may occasionally want to create content that will have a limited life span and will need to be removed from your organization's site on a specific date, such as any content regarding seasonal information, for example. Content scheduling allows you to specify the period for which your content is relevant and will automatically remove that content from public view on the date specified. If you do schedule an item of content to expire on a certain date the content in question will be displayed in your Content Schedule section of your Task List. How to apply a schedule to your content ● ● The Content Schedule area is part of the Assign Metadata control window. When you start to add documents to your organization’s website, press the Assign Metadata button to open up the Assign Metadata window. The Assign Metadata window ● ● ● ● ● The Assign Metadata window contains three main areas; the Standard Metadata area, the Content Schedule area and the Advanced Metadata area. Each of the three section areas can be hidden or shown by using the hide and show icons next to the titles of the areas (you can not show more than one area at a time). Also present within the Assign Metadata window are two buttons named Assign Metadata and Cancel. If you wish to exit the Assign Metadata window please be aware that any information you have entered will be lost if you have not saved it first by pressing the Assign Metadata button. By default when the Assign Metadata window first opens the Standard Metadata area will be shown. In order to view the Content Schedule area click the show icon next to the section title. 34 Adding a schedule to your content The Content Schedule window ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Within the Content Schedule area you will be shown one tick box, three entry fields and one dropdown menu. If you wish for the document you are creating to be scheduled and for that schedule to run from the information you enter, make sure the Use Content Scheduling tick box has been selected. In the Valid from field enter the date that you require your document to go live on. In the Valid to field enter the date that you require your document to expire on. The Action dropdown menu has two options named Make invisible and Make not live. If you choose the Make invisible option your document will be made invisible within your website’s main navigation once the Valid to date has been reached, but will not be removed from the website. This option allows you to easily make this document visible again, providing no changes have been made to it since its expiry date. If you choose the Make not live option your document will be removed from your organization’s website once the Valid to date has been reached. In order to re-publish this document you would need to have it re-approved by a Webmaster. The final field named Email Alarm allows you to specify the notification period for the content that is approaching its Valid to/expiry date. For example, if you enter 3 into the Email Alarm field, you will be emailed an expiry notification 3 days before your document is about to expire. You will then be sent a notification 2 days before, 1 day before and also on your content’s day of expiry. Once you have finished entering all your content schedule information press the Assign Metadata button. Once pressed, the information you have entered will be saved and the window will close. We recommend that you set your Action dropdown menu to Make invisible rather than Make not live. This way it is easier for you to make the document visible again if you require, providing no changes have been made to the content since the expiry data. How to re-visit your scheduled document ● To review your scheduled document you need to visit the Task List area of your CMS. Navigating to your Task List ● You can enter this Task List area by clicking your name in the right side of the Jadu Control Center navigation bar to navigate to the My Tasks option. 35 ● The default view of the Task List area is the To Do List to visit the scheduled content area click the Content Schedule tab. The Content Schedule area The Content Schedule area ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● At the top of the Content Schedule area there is a dropdown menu that allows you to view either Your Schedule or All Schedules (depending on your access rights). You may also use the appropriate links to view Upcoming or Expired content (the information and tasks you will be able to perform will be the exactly the same in either the Upcoming or the Expired section). The Content Schedule area is split into four columns. The first column is named Page title and contains all the document titles that have had a schedule applied to them (the title of the document also works as a link to view the details of each document). The second column is named Valid from, where you are informed when the document in question was created. The third column named Expires on informs you of what date the document is due to/has expired on and in the case of expired document it will also inform you of how many days ago each document expired. The final column is named Action on expiry which informs you of what action is due to be taken/has been taken once the expiry date has been reached. You can navigate through the pages of scheduled documents by using the page number links below the list of scheduled documents names. How to review a scheduled document ● ● Select the name of the scheduled document you wish to review. You will be taken to the Document Details area. Within the Document Details area you can review or change any of the content of this document or information regarding this document. 36 How to re-schedule your document The Document Details area ● ● ● Within the Document Details area click on the main document title to enter the Document Header area. From the Document Header area use the Assign Metadata button to enter the Assign Metadata window, from within this window enter the Content Schedule area. In the Content Schedule area change the document’s scheduled details to those required and resave the document. As long as you don’t edit the contents of the document you are viewing, you will be able to make this document viewable from your organization’s website straight away by changing the document’s schedule details. How to remove a content schedule from your document ● ● ● ● To remove a schedule from a document you need to visit the Document Details area and then click on the main document title to enter the Document Header area. From within the Document Header area use the Assign Metadata button to enter the Assign Metadata window and from within this window enter the Content Schedule area. In the Content Schedule area, un-tick the Use Content Scheduling tick box and re-save your document. Once saved your document will ignore any information present in the Content Schedule area unless you re-select the Use Content Scheduling tick box. Content locking Jadu allows content to be ‘locked’ by one person whilst being edited and stopping any other users from making changes during that time. Each content lock has an expiry date, after which time the lock will be removed automatically. Locking an item of content Where the Content Locking feature is available, items are automatically locked at the point of creation for a default period of 10 minutes. Within the CMS it is also possible to manually configure a Content Lock. 37 Selecting the option to Lock an item for editing ● ● When viewing an item it is possible to select the Lock option from the associated Actions dropdown menu. This will open a new lightbox for you to enter the details of the period that you wish to lock the item for. There are two methods of selecting the period during which your content lock should be applied. Manually inputting your lock period ● You can type the period that you wish to lock the content for in the Lock Until text field. The time the lock will be applied for will be dynamically displayed so that you can confirm that this is correct. 38 Using the calendar to chose a date ● Alternatively, you can pick a date by clicking on the calendar icon and then the date for which you wish the content to be unlocked. ● Again, the time the lock will be applied for will be dynamically displayed so that you can confirm that this is correct. ● Finally, click the LOCK button to apply your Content LOCK. Only the user who locked the content or a webmaster can unlock the content. If another user needs the content to be unlocked they can choose to alert the webmasters. This will send an email to the person who locked the content and all webmasters (or Control Center administrators at the highest level of workflow) requesting that the content be unlocked. Requesting access to a locked item If you try to access an item that has been locked you will be notified that it has been locked and told who has locked it. Accessing an item of locked content is not permitted by other users ● To request access to a locked item of content you must first click on the ‘alert the webmasters’ link. 39 Adding your request details ● Type the details of your request in the Message space provided and then press the REQUEST LOCK RELEASE button. An unlock request within a user’s Awaiting Action list ● This will generate a task for the webmaster to action your request. Until it has been actioned it will display in the Awaiting Action section of your task list. 40 Unlocking an item of locked content ● To Unlock an item you must first select the Unlock option from the associated Actions menu. Selecting the Unlock option ● ● You will then be presented with the option to Unlock the item. Press the UNLOCK button to release the Content Lock. Releasing the Content Lock Locking and Unlocking in Search View Content may also be locked or unlocked from within the Jadu search results page as detailed in Chapter 1 of this manual. 41 Chapter Seven: The Jadu CMS Text Editor How to use the Jadu CMS Text Editor The Jadu CMS Text Editor allows you to format the content you produce for your organization’s website. Basic word processing skills are enough to create pages that look consistent with the rest of your site in terms of font use, layout and colour, etc. Although the Text Editor will allow you to paste in copied content from the Internet, a Microsoft Word® document or similar, we advise that you first paste your content into Notepad and then copy it from Notepad into the Text Editor. This will strip out any formatting that might have existed in the original content and makes sure that all the formatting that is present in your content has been set by you, delivering a consistent look throughout your site. Your Text Editor area looks and functions very much like Microsoft Word® or any similar word processing application. In this chapter of the manual we will run through the entire range of tools available within your Text Editor but be aware that your CMS set up is completely customizable. Therefore, your organization will be able to specify precisely which tools will be available to each user. The Jadu Text Editor area Above the main Text Editor area there are numerous tool buttons, many of which will be familiar to you. Below is a list of the tools and a brief explanation of each tool’s functionality. 42 Maximize/minimize editor: maximizes or minimizes the editor screen. Print document: Allows you to print out your content. Undoes your last action: Undoes the last action you performed. Re-does your last action: Re-does the last action you performed. Note: The multiple undo/redo functionality within the Jadu Document Editor has a limitation of 20 (twenty) actions. Each action is separated by a time delay of half a second before the browser will remember the action. Therefore, rapid text or data entry may result in entire sections becoming subject to a single undo/redo action. Copy selection: Copies the area you have selected. Paste from clipboard: Pastes the content you have copied to your clipboard. Cut selection: Cuts the area you have selected. Superscript: Allows you to add superscript text. Subscript: Allows you to add subscript text. Bold: Allows you to add bold text. Italic: Allows you to add italic text. Underline: Allows you to add underlined text. Strikethrough: Allows you to add strikethrough text. Format (Example of dropdown menu options are Heading, Subheading, Normal, Address): Allows you to use predetermined font styles and colours for the different elements of your content such as headings and normal text. Insert/Modify link: Allows you to insert a link to another site or item of content or to modify a previously added link. Remove web link: Allows you to remove a previously added link to another site or item of content. Ordered list: Allows you to add a numbered list. Bulleted list: Allows you to add a bulleted list. Blockquote: Allows you to add blockquoted text. 43 Abbreviation: Allows you to define the full meaning of an abbreviated term. Justify left: Justifies your text to the left of the page. Justify center: Justifies your text to the center of the page. Justify right: Justifies your text to the right of the page. Decrease indent: Allows you to decrease the text indent. Increase indent: Allows you to increase the text indent. Insert/Modify image: Allows you to insert an image or to modify the properties of a previously added image. Insert/Modify multimedia object: Allows you to insert an image or to modify a previously added multimedia object. Insert special character: Allows you to insert a special character into your text, such as the copyright symbol. Horizontal rule: Allows you to add a horizontal line. Insert time: Allows you to add the current time. Insert date: Allows you to add the current date. Insert table: Allows you to insert a table. Merge cells: Allows you to merge two cells within a table. Insert cell before: Allows you to insert a table cell before the one you have selected. Insert cell after: Allows you to insert a table cell after the one you have selected. Delete column: Allows you to delete a table column. Split column: Allows you to split a table column. Insert row after: Allows you to insert a table row after the one you have selected. Insert row before: Allows you to insert a table row before the one you have selected. Table properties: Allows you specify exact table properties. Split row: Allows you to split a table row. 44 Delete row: Allows you to delete a table row. Highlight row or cell: Allows you to highlight a table row or cell. Insert column before: Allows you to insert a table column before the one you have selected. Insert column after: Allows you to insert a table column after the one you have selected. Delete cell: Allows you to delete a table cell. Spell check document: Allows you to check the spelling of your content. Calculate readability: Performs a readability score and informs you of the average reading age of your content. In linguistics, the Gunning fog index is a test designed to measure the readability of a sample of English writing. The resulting number is an indication of the number of years of formal education that a person requires in order to easily understand the text on the first reading. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gunning_fog_index Toggle HTML source: Allows you to see and edit the HTML source code. Find and replace: Allows you to search for a specific word or phrase and replace all occurrences with another word or phrase. Content statistics: Performs a word and paragraph count. Insert code snippets: Allows you to add snippets of HTML code or client-side script e.g. embedded YouTube video, Google Map. Try to include a paragraph return after every other full stop or after every full stop if your paragraphs are long. This makes the text on a computer screen much easier to read. Keep headlines and headings consistent, and avoid using CAPITALS for headlines or headings. Only use the underline tool where absolutely necessary - underlining words in your content will make them look like links and may confuse your site's visitors. Use headings sparingly and avoid using headings or sub headings on full paragraphs within your content. 45 How to create a link within your content ● ● Highlight the area of text that you wish to make into the link. Click the Insert/Modify Link button the Insert Link window will open. The Insert/Modify window ● ● ● ● The Insert Link window contains one entry field and two buttons named Insert Link and Cancel. In the Web or Email Address field enter the email address or website address you wish the text to link to (you can paste into this field if you have cut the link from the address bar of your browser or other material). In the Title field you can insert a more detailed description of the content that the link points to. This will be visible if the cursor is placed over the link on your website and will aid accessibility. Once you have entered your information into the URL field and you are happy with your link details, press the Insert Link button. Once pressed the window will close and you will notice that your highlighted text will now be coloured and underlined. (Please be aware that the colour and decoration of the link text within the Text Editor is for editing purposes only, styles for links within your organization’s website will have been set and once your content has been saved these styles will be applied to your content.) Text Editor area with an added link There is no need to apply Bold or Underline formatting to links as links styles are already specified for the whole of your organization’s website and will be applied once your content has been saved. When creating a link avoid adding your link to the term ‘Click here’ for a location map. Instead, create a link with more appropriate words, for example ‘A location map download is available’. How to edit a link within your content ● ● Highlight the area of text that exists as the link you wish to edit; you can also place the cursor within the link text area as the link will be altered for all text associated with that link. Click the Insert/Modify Link, within the Insert Link window to make your changes and then press the Insert Link button. How to remove a link within your content ● ● Highlight the area of text that exists as the link you wish to remove. You can also place the cursor within the link text area as the link will be removed from all text associated with that link. Click the Remove Web Link button. You will be asked to confirm your changes before the link is removed. 46 How to prepare an image for upload to the central image library Within your content you have the option to add an image. To control the usage of images within your organization’s website associated images that can be used are stored within a central image library. Although there is an option to add additional images to this central image library, this function may not be available to all users due to the customizable nature of your CMS, your relevant permissions and your organization’s requirements. The process of uploading and using an image is straightforward, but the image itself must have extra attention paid to it in terms of its relevance and quality. It is important that good quality images are used and images like clip-art be avoided. All images should be saved at 72 dpi (dots per inch), as this is the standard for usage on the web. Images must be a relevant size as images that are too big make for unprofessional looking results. Images should be saved as a JPG if they are photographs or GIF if they are a flat graphic. All image file names must contain no spaces and use letters or numbers only. Most importantly, your images should be relevant to the content you are adding. How to upload an image to the central image library ● ● Place your cursor in an area within your content that you wish for the image to appear (you need to do this even though we will only be dealing with uploading your image in this section). Click the Insert/Modify Image button the Image Library window will open. Common fields and buttons throughout the image upload process The Image Library window ● ● There are several elements within the Image Library window that will stay present throughout this image upload process. These are; the Search box and Search button, the Browse by Title and the Upload Image icons and finally the three main buttons named Use This Image, No Image and Cancel. Within the Image Library window click the Upload Image button (the plus sign icon) in the top right of the window. Once clicked you will be shown the Upload Image window. 47 The Upload Image window The Upload Image window ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● The Upload Image window’s main area consists of one entry field, one dropdown menu, one tick box and two buttons named Browse and Upload. To start, click the Browse button to open a standard computer browser window. Within this window, navigate through your computer or organization’s file structure and find the image you require. Once you have picked the image you require you will notice there will now be a route address (file path) present within the Browse field. If you have selected an incorrect image you can press the Browse button again and repeat the process until you have the correct image. In the Resize Image dropdown menu there will be a list of resize options for your image. This list’s options are customizable from within your CMS. Therefore, the specific options will vary (essentially you will be able to select an option that will resize the image you are uploading to fit a specific area within your organization’s website). If you do not wish to resize your image, use the standard Keep original image size option. The Optimise Image tick box should be ticked if you require your image to be compressed. Once compressed your image will download faster and therefore allow your website to be viewed quicker (we advise that all images be optimized to contribute to improved site performance). Once you have ensured the route address points to the image you wish to upload, and that all the details you have picked are correct for that image, press the Upload button. In a few moments the Upload Image window will change to the Image Properties window. 48 The Image Properties window The Image Properties window ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Displayed within the main area of the Image Properties window there will now be three panels. The left panel will show the central image library file structure. From here, select an appropriate folder category in which to store your uploaded image. Once you have decided which category you wish to use, press the Add Category button and your selected category will appear at the bottom of the middle panel under the Categories field. If you have selected an incorrect category use the Remove button next to the category name from within the middle panel to remove this assigned category. In the middle panel you will be asked to provide some essential details about the image you are uploading. You need to enter an appropriate title for your image within the Title field. In the Tags field enter keywords that you think might be used when searching the central image library for your uploaded image (make sure all your keywords are comma separated and are all lower case). In the Alternative text field enter a short but informative description of the image you are uploading (this description is essential in order to keep your organization’s website compliant to the latest usability standards). This text will be displayed on your organization’s website in the form of text that appears when you place your mouse over the image and therefore requires an accurate description. The Caption field will let you enter a brief caption to display underneath the image when it appears on your website. Finally, the right panel will contain a preview of the image you are uploading alongside automatically populated information on the File name, File format, Dimensions and Image size. This right panel also contains two buttons named Save and Save And Use.

If you press either the Use This Image, No Image or Cancel button your image will not be saved into the central image library. ● 49 How to add an image into your content ● ● Place your cursor in an area within your content that you wish for your image to appear. Click the Insert/Modify Image button the Image Library window will open. The Image Library window ● The Image Library window looks and works like any computer browser window. This window contains several ways to find and insert an image into your content. Common fields and buttons throughout the image insertion process ● ● ● There are several elements within the Image Library window that will stay present throughout the image insertion process; these are the Search box and Search button, the Browse by Title and the Upload Image icons, the View by Category and View by Thumbnail links and finally the three main buttons named Use This Image, No Image and Cancel. If at anytime you wish to leave the Image Library window without inserting an image into your content, you can use the Cancel button. There are three main methods to add an image to your content and include; View by Category, View by Thumbnail and Search. Adding an image to your content via the View by Category method ● ● The first method of inserting an image into your content is the View by Category method. You are likely to be the most familiar with this method and it is the default view of the Image Library window. The central area of the Image Library window is split into three panels. 50 The Browse by Title window ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● The left panel will contain a list of all the folder categories present within your organization’s central image library. If you select a folder category, all images within this folder will be displayed within the middle panel. If you select an image from this list, a preview of the selected image will be displayed within the right panel along with information regarding this image. Also present in this right panel are two Alignment selection boxes named Left and Right, the Alignment option allows you to specify whether your image sits either to the left or the right within your content. Also within the right panel are two buttons named Edit and Delete. If you wish to edit the details of the image you have selected then press the Edit button, you will be taken to the Image Properties window from where you can change any information regarding this image. To delete the selected image from within your organization’s central image library press the Delete button, you will be asked to confirm your changes before the image is deleted. If the image you have selected is the image you wish to use within your content and you have ensured that you have selected your required Alignment option, press the Use This Image button. Once pressed, the Image Library window will close and your selected image will be displayed within your content. If you have selected an incorrect image you can select another image from the middle panel or even a different folder category until you find the required image. Adding an image to your content via the View by Thumbnail method ● ● The second method of inserting an image is the View by Thumbnail method. The central area of the window is split into two panels. 51 The View by Thumbnail window ● ● ● ● ● ● The panel on the left contains thumbnails of all the images contained within all the folder categories found in your organization’s central image library. Also in this left area is a line of text telling you that you are viewing x amount of images out of the total x amount, plus two links allowing you to skip to the Next page and back to the Previous page. Once you have selected an image from the thumbnails, your image will preview in the right panel along with information regarding this image. As before there will be the two Alignment selection boxes named Left and Right and the Edit and Delete buttons. If the image you have selected is the image you wish to use within your content and you have ensured that you have selected your required Alignment option, press the Use This Image button. Once pressed the Image Library window will close and your selected image will be displayed within your content. If you have selected an incorrect image you can continue to select another image from the thumbnail panel until you find the required image. Adding an image to your content via the Search method ● ● ● ● ● The third method for inserting an image is the Search method, which combines a search function and the file and image selection process present within the first or second method, depending on which area you are in. Within the Search box at the top left of the Image Library window, type the keyword for the image you are trying to find, then press the Search button. Once pressed your search results will be displayed in the same format as the area you are in, for example, your results will display as thumbnails if you are in the View by Thumbnail area. You will be able to use your selected area to select an image you require from the search results. If your search did not return the results you require or any results at all you can perform the search again using another keyword. How to remove an image from within your content ● ● Click onto the image within your content you wish to remove. A holding box will appear around your image once it has been selected. Press the backspace or delete button on your keyboard to remove this image from the Text Editor and ultimately from within your content. 52 How to add advanced content such as movies into your content Note: This section discusses the Insert Code Snippet feature of the CMS, video and audio files may also be managed using the dedicated Jadu Multimedia Manager decribed later in this manual. The purpose of the Snippets tool is to allow you to embed advanced content into the content item you are creating, by using appropriate HTML code. Embedding this advanced content via the Snippets tool ensures that the Jadu Text Editor’s in built HTML filter does not remove it. Examples of advanced content could be multimedia files such as QuickTime movies, YouTube movies or Server Side Includes (SSI’s) (your server must be configured to support Server Side Includes if you wish to use them). How to add code snippets into your content ● ● Place your cursor in an area within your content that you wish for your advanced content to appear. Click the Insert code snippets button and the Insert Snippet window will open. The Insert Snippet window ● ● ● Either write or paste your code snippet into the Insert Snippet window. Once you have entered your code snippet press the Insert Snippet button. Once pressed your code will be saved and the window will close. You will notice that a placeholder has been inserted into the area within your content where you added your code snippet. This placeholder appears instead of your code snippet in order to ensure that multimedia content is not played while you are within the Text Editor. Text Editor area with an added code snippet placeholder 53 Developers should note that code pasted into the Insert Snippet window will not be interpreted within the Text Editor and so any server-side code will not be executed until your content has been saved and viewed from within your organization’s website. How to edit an existing code snippet ● ● ● Click onto your code snippet’s Placeholder that you wish to edit within your content. Click the Insert code snippets button and the Insert Snippet window will open. Within the Insert Snippet window make your required changes and then press the Insert Snippet button. How to remove an existing code snippet ● ● Click onto your code snippets placeholder that you wish to delete from within your content and then click onto the Insert Code Snippets button. Within the Insert Snippet window remove your code snippet and press the Insert Snippet button, the window will close and your code snippet will have been removed from within your content. Autosave The Jadu CMS Text Editor provides an Autosave feature included as standard. ● ● Autosave automatically saves content in the background and prevents content from being lost regardless of whether content has been saved manually during the editing process. If accessing content that was not manually saved during the previous session, unsaved changes are recovered, along with the time and date of the last autosave. Autosave content recovery option ● ● Links within the notification allow content authors to Recover or Dismiss unsaved changes. Clicking the Recover option recalls the previously unsaved content into the content item you are viewing. If the content item includes iterations that have been saved manually, the Autosave feature also provides an option to Revert to the last saved version. Revert from Autosave content recovery 54 Chapter Eight: Documents and document pages How to prepare your document The Document Pages section of the Jadu Publishing Tools is where you will probably spend most of your time when using your organization's CMS. It is where you can author your main content pages for your organization’s website. Your documents will need to be structured correctly in order to create a logical layout for your website visitors. You may have an introductory page containing a brief summary of your subject, for example, followed by a number of pages that go into more detail about specific points within your introductory page. Some of your pages may contain links to other content, websites or downloads. Also within the Document Pages area you will be able to specify supplement content and their locations (supplement locations could be the left column, the right column or the footer of your page) for each individual document page that you create. The Jadu Supplements section allows you to add specific content such as adverts or contact details to a predetermined location within your document pages (specific details of the location and type of supplements that you can add within your CMS will vary depending on your organization’s requirements). How to use the Document Pages area ● From within the main Jadu CMS Control Center select the Open menu followed by the Document Pages option from the Publishing section. You will be shown the main Document Pages area. The Document Pages area ● If you have already used other sections within the Publishing menu you may already be familiar with the general layout of this area. 55 How to search for an existing document ● At the top of the Document Pages area is the Find a page or document link. Once pressed it will open a search area. You can close this area by clicking back onto the Find a page or document Link. The Find a Page or Document search area ● ● ● Within this search area you have the ability to search for an existing page or document by Keyword, you can search by which navigation Category has been assigned to it or you can search by the Date Created. To search by a Keyword enter your keyword into the entry field and press the Go button. To search by the navigation Category, press the Choose Category button and the Choose Category window will open. The Choose Category window ● ● ● ● Navigate through the categories until you have selected the one you require, press the Choose Category button within the window to search by the selected navigation category. To search by Date Created use the dropdown menu to select the appropriate time period, then press the Go button. All results will be displayed within the main section of the Document Pages area. If no results have been found, a message of You have not yet created any documents will appear. Please be aware if you perform any of the searches within the Your documents section you will only be able to search through the documents that have been created by you. You need to enter the All documents section in order to search through all the documents present within your organization’s CMS. How to view a list of your documents or all documents ● ● ● Within the main section of the Document Pages area you can either view a list of documents that have been created by you or you can view a list of documents that have been created by all the users of your organization’s CMS. You can swap between these two views by using the Your documents or All documents links. Please be aware that some users may only be able to view their own documents as levels of access can be set for each individual user within your CMS to restrict the amount of information they can see or edit. 56 The Document Pages area ● The main section of the Document Pages area is laid out into five columns. The main Document Pages area ● ● ● ● ● ● The first column is named Document title. This is where your document names will be listed. These names also act as a link into each documents details. The second column is named Categories assigned. This informs you of which navigation category each document is assigned to (you can use the magnifying glass next to each category listing to show a list of all documents created within this selected navigation category only). The third column is named Visible. This displays a dropdown menu with the option of Yes or No. Selecting Yes will mean that this document is viewable from within your organization’s navigation, selecting No will mean this document will be hidden within your organization’s navigation. You will notice that you are unable to alter some of the Visible dropdowns. This could be due to two reasons; the document hasn’t been approved or it has been made Not Live. The fourth column is named Owned by. This lists the name of the person that the document is owned by. You can alter this name by selecting the tick box next to the person’s name you wish to change and pressing the Change button. In the Change Administrator Levels window change the selection in the Choose an Administrator dropdown menu to the correct name and press the Apply Changes button. The Change Administrator Levels window ● ● ● The last column is named Delete. This allows you to select an individual document and to delete that selected document. Select the tick box next to the document you wish to delete and press the Delete button. You will be asked to confirm your changes before the document is deleted. The final element within the main section of the Documents area is the Create New Document button. Once pressed it will allow you to create a new document. 57 How to navigate through the list of documents ● ● You have the ability to move from one list of documents to another via the page number links present below the main section, you can also use the Next and Previous links to move from one page to another. In order to make it as easy as possible to find the document you are searching for you can specify the amount of document names you can see per page by using the Documents Per Page dropdown menu. How to create a document and associated document pages ● ● Select Document page from the New menu (if you have added it to your custom list) or from within the Document Pages area press the Create New Document button. You will be taken to the Document Header area where you will be asked to provide some key information regarding the document you wish to create. The Document Header area ● The purpose of the document header is to act as an umbrella to all the pages within the document. This means you only have to create the navigation categories and Metadata once for the document and not on every document page. The Document Header area ● ● ● ● ● ● ● First you will be asked to create a Document Title. Think of something that will be of use to you, the visitor of your website and something that can be easily referenced when someone searches for your document within your CMS. Assign your document a navigation category using the Assign Categories button. Assign relevant Metadata to your document. The Page Structure dropdown menu relates to the layout position of your document’s supplements. The options within the dropdown menu will vary from one organization to another (Document supplements are discussed later in this chapter). The final area of information you will be asked to provide is whether or not you wish your document to Enable Document Password? or not (if you choose to add a password to your document this will mean it will only be viewable by somebody who knows the password). If you select Yes from the dropdown menu you will be asked a further question. Document Password is where you can set the password for your document (please be aware that all passwords are case sensitive). The Document Access Level dropdown menu allows you to specify the user level of your document (whenever a user registers on your organization’s site you can allocate them access rights that restrict the level of documents that they can view - the default access level for documents and users is level 1). For more details regarding document access levels please refer to the Jadu Marketing User Manual. 58 ● Once you have finished entering all your document information press the Save Document button.

We have mentioned in previous chapters within this manual that your Jadu Content Management System set up is completely customizable. Therefore, the approval process may vary from the example we describe in this chapter. It is essential that you understand the mechanics of the approval process. We therefore need to refer back to the example workflow structure set out earlier in this manual. We are going to use default CMS user set up, which consists of two levels of user: Administrator and Webmaster. (For detailed information on building your own custom workflows please refer to the Jadu CMS Utilities Manual.) Administrators will be given the least amount of control within your CMS. Their primary task will be to create and add content to your CMS, such as documents, downloads, etc. While they will be able to author and manage content, they will not be able to publish it to the website as all content requires publication approval by a Webmaster. Webmasters will be given richer access to the functions within your CMS, but their primary task will be to approve content created by the Administrators and to control what the end user will see on your website. ● ● ● ● ● ● An Administrator creates a piece of content for your organization’s website. They do not have enough access privileges to make that content live on your website, but they do have the ability to send their content to a Webmaster for approval. The Webmaster will be shown the content that has been sent for approval on their To Do List within the Task List section of your CMS. Within this To Do List, the Webmaster can click the title of the content to view the details of that content. Once the content has been reviewed the Webmaster has two options of what they can do next. They can send the content back to the Administrator for amendments or they can approve the content and make it live on your website. If the content in question has been sent back to the Administrator for amendments, then they can make the requested amendments and re-submit that content for approval. This process continues until the final content is approved by the Webmaster. What to look for when approving content There are a number of key things that you need to look for before approving an item of content, in order to ensure interesting and well presented content is added to your organization’s website. It’s important to ensure that the categories that have been assigned are appropriate for the subject of the content. In addition, check that the keywords and description have been added to the Metadata area. It is important that no punctuation or capital letters are included in the Metadata description and all keywords are comma separated. Scan through the content and check that there are no glaring formatting errors. Some important or obvious examples of poor formatting include: ● ● ● Large paragraphs of text. There should be a paragraph return after every other full stop or after every full stop if the paragraph is long. Extensive areas of text are hard to read on a computer screen. Make sure links are lines of text that accurately describe its target, rather than whole paragraph. Ensure there are no unformatted bullet points. 145 ● ● Check there is no incorrect formatting, e.g. paragraphs formatted as headings. Make sure any images that have been used are the correct size for the page and your site. Once you have made all the necessary checks, you must decide whether it is appropriate to make this content available on your organization’s website, or whether it needs to be returned to the Content Editor that created it for amendments. The Task List area Throughout the process of submitting and approving content, you will be required to use the Task List area of your CMS. The Task List area of your CMS can be viewed by clicking on your name within the main Jadu Control Center top navigation bar, and selecting My Tasks from the dropdown menu. Your Task List area consists of four main sections named the To Do List, the Awaiting Action, the Content Schedule and the Content Locks areas. The To Do List If you have been given access within your organization’s CMS to approve and make content live, this section will list all the items of content that are awaiting approval. This list will contain content that you have created and have submitted for approval along with content created and submitted from other users within your organization. How to approve or reject an item of content The default view of the Task List area is the To Do List. If you have visited another part of the Task List section you need to select the To Do List tab. The To Do List area The To Do List area ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● At the top of the To Do List, there is a line of text that informs you of how many tasks you have awaiting completion. The To Do List area is split into seven columns. The first column is named No and numbers the amount of tasks that you have which are waiting to be completed. The second column is named Your task. This area informs you of what action needs to be taken for each item of content, e.g. Approve Documents or Approve News. The third column is named Title. This contains all the content titles that are awaiting action. The title of the content also works as a link to view the details of each content item. This is how you review the information of the content that has been submitted for approval. The fourth column is named Date created. This allows you to see when the particular content item was created. The fifth column is named Set by. This area will contain the name and email address of the person that has submitted each specific item of content for approval. The sixth column is named Comments. This area will contain information on what comments have been left, or amendments that need to be made if the content has already been rejected. 146 ● The seventh column contains a Reject button for each piece of content that is within the list. This button allows you to reject a piece of content without reviewing its specific details. How to reject content ● ● There are two methods of rejecting content. The first method is to use the Reject button within the seventh column on the To Do List area. Once pressed, the Reject window will open. The Reject Documents window ● ● ● ● ● Within this window you will be informed of the title of the content you are rejecting. You also have the ability to comment on why you are rejecting this content. Type your Comments on this rejected content within this area. For example, you may require a certain element of content to be removed or amended or that this content is not appropriate for your organization’s website. Once you have added all your comments, press the Reject button to register the rejection of that item of content and to submit your comments. To reject an item of content using the second method, click onto the title of the content you wish to reject. You will be taken to the content details area, where you can review every element of this content. Once you have reviewed the content, press the DECLINE button again. You will be presented with the Reject window, which will work as previously described. How to approve content ● Click the title of the content you wish to approve. You will be taken into the details area for that piece of content. Within this area you can review every element of this content. Decline options ● Approve and Once you have reviewed the content press the Approve button. Once pressed you may now have some additional options depending on the item of content you are approving. 147 Initial options for publication ● ● The Submit button allows you to re-submit the content for proofing again in case you have approved this content by mistake. The LIVE / TAKE OFFLINE switch allows you select whether the content in question is made live on your organization’s website. When MAKE LIVE is selected, a new option may appear dependent on the type of content that you are publishing. Making content visible in your navigation ● ● The Make Visible / Invisible switch allows you to select whether your visitors can find this item of content from your website’s main navigation or not. Make your selections from the relevant dropdown menus, allowing you to save these choices and approve the contents. Awaiting Action This area informs you if any content created by you is awaiting action, such as you have submitted a document for approval and is awaiting a Webmaster to approve it. Within this area you can view items of content that you have submitted for approval. You can also terminate an item of content which will remove it from the approval process and you will be informed if your content has been rejected and why it has been rejected. ● The default view of the Task List area is the To Do List to visit the Awaiting Action area click the Awaiting Action tab. 148 The Awaiting Action area ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● At the top of the Awaiting Action area there is a line of text that informs you of how many tasks you have created and are waiting to be completed. The Awaiting Action area is split into seven columns. The first column is named No and numbers the amount of tasks that you have created and are waiting to be completed. The second column is named Your task. This area informs you of what action needs to be taken for each item of content, e.g. Approve Documents or Approve News. The third column is named Title, and contains all your content titles that are awaiting action. The title of the content also works as a link to view the details of each content item. The fourth column is named Task creation date. This allows you to see when the task was created. The fifth column is named For attention of. This area will contain the name of the user your task is awaiting to be actioned by. The sixth column is named Comments. This area will contain information on what comments or amendments have been submitted if your content has been rejected. The seventh column contains a Terminate button for each piece of content that is within the list. This button allows you to remove a specific piece of content from the approval process. You will be asked to confirm your changes before your content is removed from the approval process. Content Schedule The Content Schedule area allows you to review an item of content you have created that you have also applied a content schedule to. This area and its functions are explained in detail in Chapter 6 of this manual. Content Locks The Content Locks area allows you to review any locks that have been applied to content based on your privilege level. This area and its functions are explained in detail in Chapter 6 of this manual. 149 Chapter Twenty Six: Further information Further reading For guidance on writing for the web and being a Content Editor or Webmaster, the following websites provide some good articles and guides.
