The Content Manager is where all your editing and composition is handled. There are several work panes containing the various elements you will use to create and publish your articles, images and videos. The main area contains a Rich Html editor similar to a desktop word processing application. You can easily change the fonts, edit the tables and css styles for your articles using the familiar and intuitive interface.
On the left side of the module is a series of objects you can use to enhance your content pages. The first list holds all the images you have previously uploaded. To upload an image, or a zipfile containing multiple images, simply select it in the Open File dialog window, and click the Upload Image button. The list will refresh showing the new images. You can filter this list by tags, which searches the image file name for the specified word(s).
The next list is for all your videos. These videos are uploaded in Windows Media .WMV format and can easily be dragged right into your content page to have the video display within your article. In order to upload videos, the website you are currently using to manage your content must be in the Trusted Zone in your internet exporer browser, and must have several custom permissions associated to it. We cover these permissions in detail in the article "How to Setup the Content Server".
The content manager includes an area below the content editor where you are asked to define the Tags associated with this page. You can type in new tags or choose from the list of tags that were previously defined. These Tags are used as the "Search Engine Keywords" when your page is viewed by the search engines, so be specific when defining these for your articles in order to acheive better visibility across the internet.
