From any screen in Cascade CMS, look for a red plus sign in the topmost header area of the page, and click on Add Content. Here, you will be able to choose from predefined Asset Factories, including images, PDF files, folders, and pages.
Uploading an image to Cascade CMS through the Common asset factory, using the red plus sign (Add Content) ensures that the appropriate metadata is included with the image, making it search-engine friendly, and 508 compliant for persons with disabilities.
Uploading a PDF to Cascade CMS is done by using the red plus sign for adding content. We recommend your documents be saved in PDF format because you can ensure the security of the content and they are viewable on any device, including mobile devices.
Folders are assets that are used to contain and organize images, documents and webpages. When inside a site, the Site Content menu on the left is where your folders and their contained assets are displayed.
There are two types of pages that can be created in Cascade CMS, one with a left navigation and one without. When using the red plus sign for adding content, select one of the Page templates that meets your needs.
An external link is an asset that points to a website outside of Cascade CMS or a page that you cannot access in the CMS. External links are useful when you need to include external websites in your dynamic left navigation menu.
