NEW Article Manager FAQ
What are the differences between the New Article Manager and the previous Article Editor?
The key difference between the New Article Manager and the previous Article Editor is that now you will be able to access and edit your articles easier than ever. The Article Manager interface in which you create, edit and search for articles has been streamlined to better integrate with your new Control Panel in look and feel. The Article Manager retains all of the original functionality of article editor while giving you a sleek, highly navigable interface to help you create new content quickly and keep existing content organized.
How do I access the New Article Manager?
Like the previous Article Editor, the Article Manager can be accessed in the “Website & Content” tab of your Control Panel.
How do I enter a new article in the New Article Manager?
Creating a new article has changed very little; you will follow mostly the same steps. When in the Article Manager:
- Just click on the "Add New Article" button in the top left hand corner of the page.
- From this area, you will simply fill out all the needed information such as the article label, article title and basic body content.
- After you have finished with your new article, you will then see it displayed on the main Article Manager page for future use and reference.
Will I still be able to access my old articles in the New Article Manager?
Yes, all previous articles you have created will remain available for any editing purpose. Additionally, old articles stored within your AgentAdvantage website will be able to be recalled within the New Article Manager even easier than before. The main page of the Article Manager was designed for easy access and user-friendly interaction, eliminating the bulky searches of previous versions.
What if I don't know how I saved my article, how will I find it?
The New Article Manager's user interface was made with the idea of making it easy than ever for you to find exactly the article you have in mind. Very similar to the Listings Editor feature of your Control Panel, the New Article Manager is design with all the criteria of your articles aligned in an easy-to-search format. You can find and order articles now by label, title, date modified and even article number.
What if I want to edit or delete articles, how will I go about that?
As mentioned before, all the functions of the original Article Editor are still retained in this improved Article Manager so editing or deleting an existing article is done easily. To edit an existing article, follow these steps:
- Displayed on the main page of the Article Manager, you will see all of your articles that are currently saved within your Control Panel.
- If you wish to modify any article simply use the pull down menu found to the right of your article.
- Select “Edit This Article.”
- Press the “Go” button.
- From there you can make any changes you wish to the content of your article.
And if you happen to want to remove an article, follow these steps:
- Again use the pull down menu on the right of the article
- Select “Delete Article”
- Press the “Go” button.
- You will be then prompted if you are sure you wish to delete the selected article
- After you confirm the selection, your article will no longer be listed or display.
