How to Add a Tab

  1. Navigate to the home page of the Web site.
  2. Click on the Contents tab.
  3. Click on Add Item and select Folder from the drop down menu.
  4. Add the metadata:
    • Shortname - lowercase, hyphenated two word name (ex. new-files)
    • Title - Title of your page
    • Description - Description of information on the page
  5. Click on the Save button.
  6. Click on State:Private and select Publish.
  7. NOTE: Members of the authors group can re-order the contents of any folder except the root of a Plone site.  The root of a Plone site is also referred to as the home folder.

    Only the admin user can re-order the contents of the root of a Plone site.  This also means that only the admin user can re-order the tabs that display across the top of a Plone site.

    This security restriction occurs because authors can't manage the Plone site object itself.  The order of the home folder contents is stored on the Plone site object.
