Add Content

From any screen in Cascade CMS, look for a red plus sign in the topmost header area of the page, and click on Add Content. Here, you will be able to choose from predefined Asset Factories, including images, PDF files, folders, and pages.

 

Table of Contents

 


Upload an Image

Uploading an image to Cascade CMS through the Common asset factory, using the red plus sign (Add Content) ensures that the appropriate metadata is included with the image, making it search-engine friendly, and 508 compliant for persons with disabilities.

For more information, see How to Upload an Image

 


Upload a PDF File

Uploading a PDF to Cascade CMS is done through the Common Asset Factory, using the red plus sign for adding content. We recommend your documents be saved in PDF format because you can ensure the security of the content and they are viewable on any device, including mobile devices.

Add a Folder

Folders are assets that are used to contain and organize images, documents and webpages. When inside a site, the Site Content menu on the left is where your folders and their contained assets are displayed.

Add a Page

There are several types of pages that can be created in Cascade CMS. When using the red plus sign for adding content (inside the Site Assets folder), select one of the Interior Page templates from the dropdown menu.

An external link is an asset that points to a website outside of Cascade CMS. External links are useful when you need to include external websites in your dynamic left navigation menu.
