Creating a Publication
Publications often represent the building blocks (content, design, and Pages) that comprise a website. You create a Publication to create, organize, and manage these building blocks and to grant users rights and permissions to use and create these items.
Before you begin
To create Child Publications, you require the Child Publication Creation Privilege. To create other Publications, you require the System Administration Privilege.
Procedure
Results
The Content Manager creates the Publication with the following items:
- Default Page Template (for template-based publishing)
- Data publishing Page Template
- Default Component Template
- Default Multimedia Schema
- A number of different Template Building Blocks
- A number of different Parameter Schemas
The default items are created in the Building Blocks\Default Templates folder of the new Publication. Component Templates and Template Building Blocks are used only in the legacy, template-based publishing framework.
What to do next
After adding a Business Process Type to this Publication, you can configure publishing for this Publication in the Publishing tab (which appears when you open the Publication properties dialog).
