Only administrators can create projects.
You can very quickly create a project in a few steps, by filling in a project title, name, then a description. You can also edit the default advanced options and group properties for your project.
It’s also common to enter a welcome message that can be emailed to new members. More information is available in the advanced options (project) document.
Click the Submit button to finish creating your new project.
The title is a user-friendly name to display in the user interface. This is useful if the project name contains abbreviations, acronyms or underscores. The title can include punctuation and spaces to describe the project. It’s not recommended to use hyphens in project titles.
The title is optional, and if left empty, the project name is then displayed.
The Name field auto-fills with the project title, but it can be changed.
The name of the project is required, must be a unique filename system-wide and is used as a prefix for all subprojects and groups under that project. It is also used as the project template name.
The “URL” is the fundamental building block of PageSeeder. Because the project and group names express context for the URLs that represent content and functionality, it is important the names do not conflict with existing system URLs or the URL syntax itself
To avoid inconsistent, ambiguous or non-compliant URLs, projects must be named according to the following conventions:
_
or tilde ~
.admin
, default
, member
, public
.Because the full name of a project includes the name of its parent project, [project]-[subproject]
, and is used in URLs and email addresses, it’s a good idea to keep project names
short. We recommend that the full name of a project not exceed 40 characters.
A short description is required and is often displayed as a subtitle of the project in the user interface and in emails.
These options are configurable in more than one place. Rather than duplicate the documentation, all relevant information is available in the advanced options (project) document.
These properties are configurable in more than one place. Where in the interface the value of a property changes, determines the scope of the update. For example, a change at the project level affects the subprojects and groups it contains. A change at group level only affects that group. Rather than duplicate the documentation, all relevant information from this page is available in the group properties form document.
Clear the checkbox if you don’t want to join the project automatically after creation.
