Adding document nodes

A document node represents a document that belongs to the local site. You can add a document node for an existing document in the site, or you can create a new document and add it to the site tree in one step.

Each document in a site can only be represented by at most one document node. If you want a document to be represented by multiple nodes in different locations in the site tree, create a document node at the “natural” position in the tree and then create shortcut nodes at the other positions.

To add a node for an existing document

1. Switch to the Site Manager.
2. In the site tree, select the existing node under which you want to add the document node. (The new node will be a child of the selected node.)
3. Press the Insert key, or, on Insert menu, click Insert Into Site Tree.
4. Click the Type box and select either HTML document (if you are adding a node for an HTML document) or Dynamic document (if you are adding a node for an ASP, PHP, or JSP document).
5. In the file list, select the desired document, and then click OK.

You can also add a document node by dragging a document from the Site Files pane onto an existing node.

If you add a node for a document that is already represented by a document node in the site tree, the new node will be created as a shortcut node.

To add a node for a new, empty document

1. Switch to the Site Manager.
2. In the site tree, select the existing node under which you want to add the document node. (The new node will be a child of the selected node.)
3. On the Insert menu, click one of the following: New HTML File, New ASP File, New JSP File, or New PHP File, depending on the type of document you want to create.
4. Type the desired file name and click OK.
5. Type the desired navigation nameThe name that will appear on the document’s dynamic banner, if any, and on any dynamic navigation bar buttons that link to the document. for the new document and press Enter.

The new document will be saved in the site’s root folderThe “home” or top-level folder of a local or remote site; the folder that contains the site’s home page or main index file. a root folder may contain subfolders in addition to documents..

To add a node for a new document based on a template

1. Switch to the Site Manager.
2. In the site tree, select the existing node under which you want to add the document node. (The new node will be a child of the selected node.)
3. On the Insert menu, click New Document.
4. Select the desired document template and click OK.
5. Type the desired file name and click OK.
6. Type the desired navigation nameThe name that will appear on the document’s dynamic banner, if any, and on any dynamic navigation bar buttons that link to the document. for the new document and press Enter.

The new document will be saved in the site’s root folderThe “home” or top-level folder of a local or remote site; the folder that contains the site’s home page or main index file. a root folder may contain subfolders in addition to documents..

When you add a new document to a site to which you have applied a theme, the new document does not automatically use the theme. You must explicitly apply the theme to the new document.
