# Create and edit pages

To enable clear and intuitive navigation, the pages in the CMS page structure should be organized logically by topic and arranged according to the respective folders so that they fit seamlessly into the higher-level menu structure.

{% hint style="success" %}
To access the *Create new page* button, an element must be selected in the *navigation tree*.

***

All options can also be edited later.
{% endhint %}

1. *Create new page*
2. Assign a *page name* - This name is displayed in the **browser tab and the associated hover text** (see Fig. 2).
3. Set *ID of the parent folder* - **By changing the ID, an existing page can be moved to another folder** and the menu structure at page level can be changed.
4. Select [page template](https://manual.converia.de/en/general/your-own-converia-website/page-structure/create-and-edit-pages/page-templates)
5. Assign [action name](https://manual.converia.de/en/general/your-own-converia-website/page-structure/create-and-edit-pages/action-names) - Does the page have **special system functions?** Is it e.g. the *imprint* or the *terms and conditions*? Then an associated *action name* can be assigned.
6. *Page active* - **The page must be activated so that it can be called up in the frontend**. Inactive pages are displayed in red and cannot be called up in the frontend. If a link is created to an inactive page, an error message is displayed.
7. *Show in menu* - Must be selected if the page is **to be expanded as a submenu item** as soon as the main menu item (folder in which the page is contained) is selected.
8. *Save* and 9. *Back to the list*

{% hint style="success" %}
Optionally, you can specify the time period in which each individual page should be available online. However, this function is only useful in rare cases and [access options ](https://manual.converia.de/en/general/your-own-converia-website/page-structure/create-and-edit-pages/page-content-and-modules/restrict-the-visibility-of-page-content)can be better managed elsewhere.

## Subportal start page

**One page per subportal must be defined as the&#x20;*****subportal start page.*** This is the initial page that is loaded when the website is called up. If no subportal start *page* has been defined, an error message appears.

The *subportal start page* can be any active page from the page structure. This page can be defined by clicking on the house symbol.

Green house = *subportal start page* (see Fig. 3, point 1).

## Folder start page

The *folder start page* is the start page for the respective folder/menu item and is assigned automatically. The ***folder start page*****&#x20;can be changed at any time** by clicking on the blue folder icon of the desired page. Green folder = *folder start page* (Fig. 3, point 2).

{% hint style="success" %}
The folder start page does not require the menu item *Show in menu* to be selected (see Fig. 1, point 7), as the folder start page is always loaded as soon as the folder menu item is selected.
{% endhint %}
