Overview
When updating a school site, webmasters need to edit existing modules. Modules are code bundles with predefined functions, which enable users to add specific types of content (images, links, slideshows, etc.). Webmasters can modify the title, format, and content of existing modules.
Prerequisites
- You have a School Loop account with Webmaster rights.
Note: If not, you can ask any Webmaster to provide the same rights to you. - There is at least one module already added to the page.
Solution
- Log into your school loop account with Webmaster rights.
- From Toolbox, select Site Center.
Note: If this option is missing, you do not have webmaster rights.
- Select the page for which you want to edit a module and click Edit.
If the page is located under a minisite (like on the image below), you need to click on the minisite first and then select the page.
- Right-click on the module you want to edit; a toolbar at the top of the module appears.
- For existing modules, you can:
- Enter a new title and change the format of the title.
- Change the format of the module (by clicking Format, selecting a new format, and clicking OK).
Available formats for each module type are different.
- Add new content or edit existing content in the module - each module type has additional options in the toolbar to edit the content; text in the modules can be edited right away like in any text editor.
For more information on how to set up each type of modules, refer to the Adding Modules article (step 5).
