Teams

What are Teams?

Teams are spaces for individuals to work together on pieces of content. If you are in a Team with other users, and content has been assigned to that Team, anyone else in that Team can edit that content.

This tutorial is for creating Teams in the admin content management system. Teams can also be created by users via the Contribute system.

Example:

Text boxes for adding in information

  • Name the homepage in the Title text box.
  • Type a description into the Content text box.
