Toolbar[edit]

At the top right you will see the toolbar:

File:Help30-Save-SaveClose-SaveNew-SaveCopy-Cancel-Help-toolbar.png

The functions are:

<translate>

  • Save. Saves the menu item and stays in the current screen.</translate>

<translate>

  • Save & Close. Saves the menu item and closes the current screen.</translate>

<translate>

  • Save & New. Saves the menu item and keeps the editing screen open and ready to create another menu item.</translate>

<translate>

  • Save as Copy. Saves your changes to a copy of the current menu item. Does not affect the current menu item.
    Note: This toolbar icon is only shown if you edit an existing menu item.</translate>

<translate>

  • Cancel. Closes the current screen and returns to the previous screen without saving any modifications you may have made.</translate>

<translate>

  • Help. Opens this help screen.</translate>

Quick Tips[edit]

  • If you have a Single Article Layout defined for an article, that layout will show any time a user drills down to that article. For example, if an article is shown on another menu item type (for example, in a Category Blog or List Layout or a Featured Articles Layout), the user will be taken to the Single Article Layout for that article (if defined).
  • Archived articles are no longer published but are still stored on the site. Articles are Archived using the Article Manager screen. Note that Articles assigned to the "Uncategorized" Section will not show on the Archived Article List layout.
