Page options
Various settings such as search importance, keywords and descriptions can be modified on an individual page basis. To modify these, open a page in Site Manager by clicking on the edit link next to the page title in the left column and click the ‘page options…’ button on the formatting toolbar. Several options will appear underneath that can be customised.
Name
This changes the title of the page so altering this would change navigation elements and page title. This works in the same way as rename from the properties menu of a page.
Start date and end date
This is used when a page is only to appear on the site between certain dates. When the date falls outside of the range specified the page automatically becomes invisible and is no longer displayed on the site. This is useful for date dependent pages such as upcoming events. The end date should be entered as the day after the final date the page is to appear, this way the page will be displayed until midnight of the desired day.
Invisible
If the invisible box is ticked, the page becomes invisible to menus, navigation and site maps, however, the page can still be accessed on the site via direct links.
Importance
This allows you to set the importance of a page for use with the site’s own search component but does not affect external search engine results. Use the drop down list to specify the required level of importance for that page. Pages marked ‘Very high’ will appear higher in the search results than pages with lower importance. You can also specify that a page doesn’t appear in search results at all by selected ‘Not searchable’ from the list.
Description
Enter a description of the page content here. This description will appear in the META tags of this page and may be used by search engines.
Keywords
You can specify individual keywords for a page here (separated by commas) and they will be displayed in the META tags of this page.
