We are excited to announce the launch of updated product names, logos, and headers within our user interfaces as part of the CivicPlus® Solution Rebranding initiative. These changes mark the first step toward creating a cohesive and seamless user experience across all solutions in our portfolio. As part of this transition, users may notice minor design updates. While the functionality you rely on remains unchanged, we are in the process of updating screenshots and other resources on our Help Centers to reflect the new branding. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to complete these updates.

Content Page vs. Linked Page vs. Version

  • Updated:

A page, in general, is the record of the page in relation to others on the sitemap – this record is a number. 

  • Example: www.civicplus.com/200/Page-Name is page number 200.  

 

Page with Content   

Add widgets to the page by using drag-and-drop widgets from your widgets tab (in live edit) and releasing them on the page. 

 

Linked Page 

Check the box to make it so that this page links to another page or website. Once you place a check next to Linked Page more options will appear.

  • Link: To link to an existing page within your website start typing the page title or the ID number into the field. You may also copy-and-paste a page or website’s address in the field. Hint: Your link should always start with a “/” for all internal pages or “http://” for all external pages.
  • Use Menu: Placing a check here will make it so that the sub-menu items that show up underneath the page that this links to, also show up under this page in the menu.

 

In order to have any public-facing content, you will need to have a version (or versions) which is the actual content and what gets displayed to the public.

 

Version

A version is a copy of the content, that can be changed and updated, and is eligible to be published. Different copies/versions can have different statuses.

  • Published (no tag): A published version
  • Draft: A version of the page that is not visible to the public but is eligible for publishing at any time
  • Pending: Is already published but has a start date selected that is in the future, so the status will be pending until that date comes to pass

 

For example, you will have a published version of the content that the public can see, and you may have another draft version that is a work-in-progress until you choose to publish it.
