Publish Pages

After you create your page hierarchy and design, you can publish them so that learners can use them. The publishing process takes you through five steps so you can confirm all is as expected before making the pages visible to learners.

Access the Publish Process

You can access the publishing process from either of the following locations:

  • From within the Page Builder Designer: When you are creating a new page set or editing an existing page set, locate the Publish button from the upper right hand corner.

  • From the main Page Builder page: From your list of pages, locate the page to publish, then from the action menu , select Publish.

Publishing Process

After you select to publish your pages, complete the five steps. You can go forward and backward through the steps.

  1. Landing page details: In this step you confirm the page title. You can also get the URL and confirm if the pages show in the left navigation.

    • Page title: This is the title of the page that shows in the left navigation to learners if you choose to show it to them.
    • URL: If you do not show the page on the left navigation, you can copy the URL so you can share it from another website or in an email. If you do not show the page on the left navigation, the only way learners can get to it is directly using the URL.
    • Don’t show this page in the left navigation: Check the box if you do not want the pages you are creating to show to learners in the left navigation.

  2. Pages: In this step you confirm which pages to publish and their order. You can reorder pages in this step if needed.

  3. Determine visibility: In this step you identify one or more audiences who should see the set of pages. By default all users can see the pages. Select an audience from the list to manage who sees the pages. When you select an audience:

    • Only learners in the selected audiences can access the page and see it on the left navigation (if enabled).
    • Audience association is applied at the parent page level and automatically applies to all child pages.

  4. Default home page: In this step you determine if the main page should be the default landing page. When you select Yes, you choose which audiences see this as the default page. Only audiences you specified in the previous step are listed. If a learner belongs to multiple audiences with different home pages, they see the page with the earliest association date. When you assign a page as a default home page, currently the home page does not show child-page menu options on the left navigation. To ensure learners can access all child pages, ensure all child pages are reachable via navigation elements on the home (parent) page.

  5. Review and publish: In this step you have the chance to make any final changes before you set the pages live in production.
