Help! I've lost a page, and I can't find it. No worries, as long as you saved the page, it can be retrieved. Most of the time if you can not get to a page, it is because it is not in a menu structure. Sometimes this happens intentionally when a page is not supposed to appear in a menu structure, and other times it is just overlooked when you create the page. Here are instructions for how to locate any content on the site that you have created:
Go to the Admin menu and select "Administer" (the look of your menu may vary)
The menu will expand with children items. Select "Content Management"
Content Management will open to reveal another level of menu items. Select "Content"
A page will open with select buttons for filtering content:
Select the way you would like to filter. You can filter by status, type or category.
When choosing what type to filter, keep in mind that the drop down directly to the right of each radio button lists the corresponding results. Across from status are the options to select published or unpublished content. Selecting the type will allow you to filter by the types of content available such as a lightbox set, page or rotated image. Once you have made your selection, select "filter". If you select nothing, and simply scroll down, all of your content will be there sorted by most recently updated which will appear first.
Your results appear at the bottom. To view a page, click it's title. To edit a page, click the "edit" text to the right of the entry. (by clicking the edit button here, you will be taken back to this page when your changes are complete).
If you want to search again, you can reset the search parameters by clicking the "reset" button on the top of the page. If you have a lot of results and you want to be more specific you can click the refine button to narrow your search.
If you don't know why you are having trouble finding your page, most likely it is not in a menu structure. If you would like the page to appear in a menu structure, edit the page and click the "Menu" text. (please note, if you have cloned an existing page, the menu item will always need to be reset)
With the Menu settings expanded, you can edit the placement of your menu link. First, give the link a title as you would like it to appear in the menu. Next, select a parent item in the drop down. If this is a top level link, select "primary menu".
When you are finished adding the menu settings, scroll to the bottom of the page and click "save" to secure your changes.
