Creating content in new pages

At the top right corner of the all pages interface, you´ll see the +Page link. Click on this link and you are guided to the new page creation area.

You can then create the page starting by editing the page title in the title area (1). The Rich Content Editor (2) allows you to add the content of your page. The Rich Content editor is simple enough for you to understand and easily add your text, video or other media content while complex enough to host such multimedia settings.

More about the Rich Content Editor is available in the next section under 3.3. Rich Content Editor

The sidebar on the right (3) assists you in adding links, images or files to the page inside the Rich Content Editor.
