In this section, you will get an overview of how to create and save pages. You will also learn more about how to publish and unpublish your content, as well as how you can compare content between multiple environments. Finally, you will also get an introduction to how you can transfer your created content to another environment.
Select the parent page to create your new page. The parent page can be the home page or any of the sub-pages of the site.
If the parent page allows sub-pages underneath it, follow these steps:
Hover over the name of the parent page in the Content section and click ••• to view the types of pages you can create.
Select the page type you wish to create. The new page is loaded in the editor on the right-hand side.
Enter a Name for the page and click Save.
There are three different options for saving and publishing pages. The options vary depending on whether you’re still in the process of editing the page or have completed your edits and wish to publish your changes.
The Save and preview button allows you to save your changes and preview it before publishing the changes to the live site. The Preview feature shows you how the page will look once it is published. This Save and preview feature only saves your page and does not publish your contents to the live site.
The Save button is used for saving the page without publishing the changes to the live site. The Save feature is especially useful if you are working on changes over a period of time as you can save your changes frequently to prevent losing any data.
The Save and publish button is used to publish a previously saved page to the live website or to publish a page without previewing it. The Save and publish feature will save and publish the page to your live website.
The Save and publish button has three options:
The Schedule button allows you to set a time and a date for when your page should be published. With this option, you can continue working on your edits and the site will automatically be published at the time and date it was scheduled to.
To set up scheduled publishing, follow these steps:
Navigate to the page you want to publish.
Select the arrow next to the Save and Publish button.
Select Schedule.
In the Scheduled Publishing window, set the date and time in the Publish at field.
Select Schedule.
The Publish with descendants button allows you to publish the current page and all the content linked to this page to the live site. Using this option, you can publish the current parent page and it's child nodes, previously published, and unpublished content items.
To publish the node with descendants, follow these steps:
Navigate to the page you want to publish.
Select the arrow next to the Save and Publish button.
Select Publish with descendants.
Toggle the option to Include unpublished content items if you wish to. This option includes all unpublished content items for the selected page and the available linked pages.
The Unpublish button allows you to unpublish a page if you do not want a page to be publicly visible and do not want to delete it.
To unpublish a page, follow these steps:
Navigate to the page you want to unpublish.
Select the arrow next to the Save and Publish button.
Select Unpublish.
You can also unpublish your page by setting the date and time using the Schedule feature.
To set up scheduled unpublishing, follow these steps:
Navigate to the page you want to unpublish.
Select the arrow next to the Save and Publish button.
Select Schedule.
In the Scheduled Publishing window, set the date and time in the Unpublish at field.
Select Schedule.
Compare content is available in all Umbraco Cloud projects running the latest version of Umbraco Deploy for Umbraco versions 8 and 9.
Compare Content allows previewing content changes before transferring them to another environment. This is helpful to ensure that the correct updates are transferred when working with content in multiple environments.
You can see the Summary Information and Field Comparison values to understand what will change if you proceed to transfer the content to a higher environment or try restoring content to the current environment.
To compare content between environments, follow these steps:
Navigate to the page you want to compare.
Select the arrow next to the Save and Publish button. Alternatively, you can right-click the content node or click the Actions drop-down.
Select Compare to open the Compare window.
Choose the workspace from the drop-down field.
View the Summary information.
In the Field Comparison table, view the differences between the versions in the two workspaces at the node level of each field.
Proceed to transfer the content using the Queue for transfer or Transfer now options.
Restore the content from the higher environment using the Partial restore option.
Click Close to continue editing the content node.
Transfer now is available in all Umbraco Cloud projects running the latest version of Umbraco Deploy for Umbraco versions 8 and 9.
You can transfer a specific content node directly to the higher environment without adding it to the Queue for transfer.
To transfer content between environments, follow these steps:
Navigate to the page you want to transfer.
Select the arrow next to the Save and Publish button.
Select Transfer now.
Click Transfer now.
In the Transfer now window, a message is displayed that you are about to transfer the content node directly to the higher environment, without adding it to the queue.
After logging in to an Umbraco project you will be presented with a dashboard containing a wide array of buttons and features. Let's quickly go through what each feature does.
By default, there are two dashboards available:
The Getting Started dashboard provides helpful information about Umbraco.
The Redirect URL Management dashboard displays the original and redirected links of the published pages which are moved to a new location in your project.
The Search bar allows you to search for the content in your entire project.
The Help icon provides different Help options such as Tours, Umbraco Learning Base YouTube videos, Umbraco Documentation, and your System Information.
The profile icon allows you to edit your profile, change the password, and Logout from the application.
The following sections are available in the backoffice:
Content - allows to manage your content.
Media - allows to manage images and other media files.
Settings - allows to handle your meta data such as document types.
Packages - allows to manage and install packages.
Users - allows to manage the users on the project. To learn more about users, see the Users article.
Members - allows to handle the members of the project. If you want to learn more about Members, see the Members article.
Forms - allows to create and manage your forms.
Translation - allows to manage dictionary items.
The menu list will differ depending on your permissions for the project. For example: if you are an editor, then you will only have access to Content, Media and Forms as per default settings.
The section tree is different depending on the section you are in. The section provides an overview of the nodes contained in the tree.
In this example, you are looking at the content section.
The Content tab allows you to create content nodes and manage your content tree. When you hover over the sections, it is highlighted with a darker color indicating that you are hovering over it. A button with three dots will show up, left-click or right-click to view additional options.
The Recycle Bin contains the deleted content and is available only in the Content and the Media section.
To access the Umbraco Backoffice:
Open your web browser and enter your website domain name followed by /umbraco (for example: http://www.company.com/umbraco/). A login screen appears.
Enter your Email and Password provided by your system administrator.
Click Login.
The address at which you access Umbraco may vary so check with your system administrator.
To log out of the Umbraco Backoffice:
Select the profile picture in the top-right of the screen.
Click Logout.
The pages in Umbraco are placed in the tree structure according to a predefined sort order. The most recently created page is placed at the bottom of the tree structure. You can change the order of the pages by using the Sort function.
You can sort pages in two ways:
Go to Content.
Navigate to the parent node whose child nodes you wish to sort.
Right-click the parent node and select Sort. Alternatively, click ••• next to the parent node and select Sort.
A window appears next to the section tree. Here, you can arrange the child nodes in the order you want by dragging them up or down. Alternatively, you can click the column headers to sort the entire collection of items in ascending or descending order.
Click Save and then Close.
Go to Content.
Select the parent node whose child nodes you wish to sort.
Select Actions in the top-right corner of the screen.
Select Sort from the Actions drop-down menu.
A window appears next to the section tree. Here, you can arrange the child nodes in the order you want by dragging them up or down. Alternatively, you can click the column headers to sort the entire collection of items in ascending or descending order.
Click Save and then Close.
When you are looking to edit content, locate the page you want to edit in the section tree on the left-side of the screen.
To edit existing content, follow these steps:
Go to the Content section.
Select the page in the section tree you wish to edit. The content of the page is loaded in the right-side editor.
Edit the contents of the page.
Click Save to save the edits without publishing it.
Click Save and preview to preview the changes.
You can view Page layouts in three ways:
Tree View
The tree view is present in the section tree on the left-side of the screen. For a growing website with multiple content pages, the tree view can become very large and unmanageable.
List View
When you enable listview on a page, there will be no standard tree view for that page. Clicking on the parent page displays the child pages in the list view.
To enable list view:
Go to Settings.
Navigate to the Document Type/page you wish to enable list view.
Go to the List View tab.
Toggle Enable List view and click Save.
Additionally, you can sort the column Name, Last edited, and Created by in ascending or descending order to sort the list items.
Tiles View
You can switch between list view and tiles view by clicking the view icon in the top-right of the screen:
The Umbraco Rich Text Editor (RTE) is a field where you, as an editor, can be creative. You can select how much you want to do yourself. You can work on text content, format the text, or leave it the way it is. If you want to do more, you can insert images, create tables, or create links to other pages/documents.
The functionality varies depending on how the editor is set up. Here, we describe the default editor with all the options enabled. Contact your system administrator for details regarding your editor.
By default, the following editor buttons are available. Your system administrator can determine which buttons are displayed in different templates. You therefore might have access to more or fewer buttons than those shown here.
The Rich Text Editor is like any other word-processing program. You write the text and the text wraps around when the line reaches the end. Use the following keyboard shortcuts in the editor to add:
Space between paragraphs - press ENTER.
Line breaks - press SHIFT + ENTER.
To make your work easier, there are shortcut keys for certain editor functions. Use the following shortcut keys to carry out certain commands:
If you are proficient in HTML, you can switch to HTML mode to create your page. You can also check the code and make minor adjustments to get the page exactly as you want.
Certain elements such as scripts are not recognized by the HTML view of the Rich Text Editor. You can enter the scripts directly in the text view of the editor.
You can apply formatting via the Formats drop-down list. The Formats drop-down list provides predefined styles that can be applied to text while maintaining a consistent look and feel throughout the site.
These styles incorporate advanced formatting functionality which can be applied to provide a different look for certain elements such as links, headings, and sub-headings. For example, you can use a format style to change a link into a call-to-action button.
To apply pre-defined styles:
Select the text you want to apply the style.
Choose the style from the Format drop-down list.
You do not normally need to spend much time formatting text because Umbraco takes care of the formatting. However, the editor provides some options for controlling the text styles.
The most familiar way to control formatting is by using the formatting buttons. With these buttons, you can apply basic formatting such as Bold, Italic, aligning text, creating bulleted and numbered lists, and applying indents.
To apply a format using the formatting buttons:
Select the text you want to apply the formatting.
Click the desired format button.
When you write content in another editor and copy it into a Rich Text Editor, you may encounter style issues on your website.
While pasting content, the original text styles are preserved which can lead to different font faces, sizes, and colors displaying on the website when viewed.
To prevent formatting issues, we recommended pasting the content first into a markdown editor such as Notepad, then copying and pasting it into your Rich Text Editor.
If you have already formatted a paragraph or selection using the formatting buttons, you can remove the formatting rule.
To remove formatting:
Select the text you want to remove the style from.
Click the relevant formatting button to remove the formatting rule.
You can also add a Remove format button in your toolbar. To add the Remove format button:
Navigate to your Rich Text Editor in the Document Type.
Click the cog wheel.
Click Edit next to the Rich Text Editor Data Type.
Select Remove format under the Toolbar Configuration.
Click Submit.
Click Save.
The Insert/Edit Link button is used to add or update links to internal pages, external pages, media files, email links, and anchors. The process for inserting a hyperlink differs depending on the type of hyperlink you wish to create.
To insert different types of hyperlinks, follow these steps:
To display images on a page the images must be uploaded to your Umbraco media library.
Many administrators set up a media library containing images that editors can use on their pages. Others allow their editor's free use of their images. The procedure for uploading an image varies slightly depending on which method your administrators have setup. Check with your system administrator for more information about this.
In Umbraco, Macros are small building blocks of functionality that can be dropped into an editor. Each macro encompasses a piece of functionality and provides an interface to modify the macro to your requirements. A macro can be anything from a contact form to an embedded media player. The advantage of macros is that it gives editors the ability to add complex elements to a page.
The macros available differ on each system. Kindly check with your system administrator to find out which macros are available to you and what they do. The process for adding and updating a macro is as follows:
Place the cursor in the Rich Text Editor where you want to insert your macro.
Click the Insert Macro button from the toolbar.
Select a macro to insert from the macros list.
Click Submit.
The macro is displayed in the editor with a dotted border.
You can edit values after a macro has been added to the Rich Text Editor:
Select the macro in the Rich Text Editor.
Click the Insert Macro button from the toolbar.
This will open the configuration menu where you can edit any values previously added.
To remove a macro:
Select the macro in the Rich Text Editor.
Press the Delete or Backspace button on your keyboard.
Tables are used to format information in a grid-based structure. When you insert a table, you select how many rows and columns the table should comprise of. Additionally, you can fill in some optional formatting properties. These values can be changed later, so it is not important to know exactly what your table will look like when you create it.
To edit the table after creating it, click on the table. A pop-up appears with different table properties and options. Alternatively, you can click on the Table button in the Rich Text Editor toolbar.
Clicking on Table Properties gives you different options for modifying the table’s appearance. However, the developer of the website may have already created table styles for you so you may not need to adjust these settings.
There are other options available for modifying cells, rows, and columns such as width, height, alignment, border, and so on.
The Rich Text Editor in Umbraco can be configured in many different ways.
The Umbraco content tree view allows you to navigate web pages through a logical site hierarchy. You can find a page by navigating through the tree itself if you know where the page is stored.
A quicker way to search across all the content, files, or folders in Umbraco is to click the Magnifier icon in the top-right of the screen. Alternatively, you can use the keyboard shortcut CTRL + SPACE to access the Search bar.
Using the search bar, you can enter a search term and Umbraco will search for pages and media containing the term.
Click Save and publish to publish the changes. For more information, see the article.
We have listed only a few keyboard shortcuts. For a detailed list of available keyboard shortcuts, see the .

This section provides a few handy tips to work with your Content using Umbraco:
Umbraco provides the tools for organizing and uploading the Media. In this section, you can find information on how to work with different media types, organise folders, and edit images:
Re-use a page or a tree structure you have previously created by copying the parent page and its child pages to a different section within the site structure.
When you copy a parent page all of its child pages are also copied, by default. You can choose if you want to copy the child pages or not. You can also choose whether the links should be automatically updated or continue to link to the original pages.
You can copy a page in two ways:
Go to Content.
Right-click the page you wish to copy and select Copy. Alternatively, click ••• next to the page, select Do something else and click Copy.
A window appears next to the section tree. Here, you can choose where you want to copy the page in the tree structure.
Toggle Relate to original button if you want to keep the links linked to the original page.
Toggle Include descendants if you want to copy the child pages alongside the parent page.
Click Copy.
A confirmation message appears. Click OK to dismiss the confirmation message.
Go to Content.
Select the page you wish to copy.
Select Actions in the top-right corner of the screen.
Select Copy from the Actions drop-down menu.
A window appears next to the section tree. Here, you can choose where you want to copy the page in the tree structure.
Toggle Relate to original button if you want to keep the links linked to the original page.
Toggle Include descendants if you want to copy the child pages alongside the parent page.
Click Copy.
A confirmation message appears. Click OK to dismiss the confirmation message.
When you select Relate to original, Umbraco will create a relationship between the original and copied page. This relationship can be used to programmatically link the pages - For example, linking two pages in a multilingual setup. This relationship does not sync the content between the original and copied page.
You can set up notifications to receive an email when an action is performed on a given content item. To receive notifications, you need to add your email address to your user profile.
To set up notifications for a content item:
Right-click the page or select the page and click Actions in the top-right corner of the screen.
Choose Notifications.
Check the actions in which you are interested and you will receive notifications each time the given action occurs.
Click Save.
The notification settings apply to the chosen content item as well as any child items that appear below the item in the content tree.
If the notifications option does not appear, the SMTP settings are probably incorrect. In this case please contact the administrator of your website.
Within the Info content app for pages you can find the Audit Trail in the History section. Here, you can get a quick overview of the actions performed on that node, by whom, when and any additional comments.
The Audit Trail is useful to find out who made changes on a certain date.
To view the audit trail:
Go to the Content section.
Navigate to the page you wish to see the audit trail.
Go to the Info tab.
When editing content, the content tree will refresh itself when the content is saved.
If the tree does not refresh or if multiple editors are working on the site, and you want to have their changes loaded into your content tree - you can do so by reloading parts of the content tree.
To reload a section of the content tree:
Right-click on an item in the tree.
Choose Reload. The parent and child nodes are now reloaded and will reflect any new changes.
If your system administrator has set up cropping for your images, you will see a similar interface when you edit your images:
The pink circle in the middle of the image is the default focal point. The focal point defines the primary area or focus of the image which will be the center point of any image re-sizing. You can move the focal point by clicking and dragging it to the desired part of the image.
Next to the image, you may see specific crops of the image depending on your setup. In the above example, you can see that 2 crops have been set-up. To add or update the image crops, see section in the article.
To manually alter the pre-defined crops:
Select one of the crops - you will see an enlarged version of the crop.
Drag the image around and zoom in or out until you have the desired result.
Once you are happy with your changes, click Done to save the changes.
If you wish to reset the crop to default view, click Reset crop.
Once you have finished editing the crops, click Save and close.
When viewing page content in preview mode you have the option to scale the preview window to various device sizes:
Once you have finished editing the page content, click Save and preview.
