content management introduction

This page is the basic documentation for maintaining web page content. Refer to full documentation for additional detail.

The OnePoyle system takes care of web page layout using automatic formatting. Layout is defined once when the site is first created. Individual content pages are 'plugged in' to the predefined format.

Web page content is stored as 'text' files, created initially by almost any word processor (Libre Office recommended). Subsequent editing is done online with the Update Utility.

Here are examples of the main automatic formats:

what you put in the file

what you see on the web

text
paragraph
made up from several lines

text paragraph made up from several lines

new paragraph created by a blank line

newline|b+

|m,name| email link (to your domain)

|l,home,home page| link to another page
