Overview

What can it do for you?

—Create “browse” pages, static pages, or pages that display the results of a query (reports)
—Remove existing pages
—Manipulate the page menu

It's easy to surmise that Page Management only allows you to make changes to the menu. And it's true that you can create new menu pages, rearrange the menu, or remove items from it.

But you can also use Page Management to create pages that aren't in the menu. You assign a simple URL to each page, so you can link to them from your other pages. The content of the pages can be simple HTML, the results of a SPARQL query, or a "browse" page for individuals in VIVO.
