Author Mode Changes

The bulk of the changes that users will find are centered around authoring/editing/creating pages.  Here are some screenshots of the new look of CMS authoring, but by no means can this be a complete list!  Please remember that not all options are available to all users, and some options are reserved for Administrators.

Please remember that you must now log into http://cmsauthor.skidmore.edu/ in order to create/edit your CMS pages!

You will notice that when you're in Author mode a page, the icons have changed.  You would click on the little "gear wheel" icon to get options to edit your text block.

Clicking on the "gear wheel" brings you up these options, to edit your Text, the Layout of your element, or the Style of your element.  You can also expand the "more" for additional options.

The new text editor has more options and flexibility, and is much more powerful than our current editor.  Notice the "Properties" section at the bottom of the editor, that will have different options depending on what you're editing.

Notice that when you have an image selected, the Properties window reflects the options for your image, including the long-awaited Width and Height adjustment windows.
