Adding - Editing Content
This guide covers adding and creating content types within Drupal.
Creating a Content Type in a Group
- Login to IWP and click My Account.
- Click on the group where you want to add content.
- Click on the Content tab at the top of the page.
- In the Content tab, click on the Add New Content button located above the list of content.
- This will give you the option to choose any content type to add (e.g., article, event).
- Refer to the specific content type document for detailed information on each type.
- After filling in the required fields for the content type, click on Save (blue button in the upper right corner). You will be taken to a confirmation page stating the new content has been created. Click the Content tab again and select the page you created, to see how your content will appear on the site click Edit and then Preview in the upper right corner of your screen.
- Once satisfied, click on Back to content editing to confirm and publish (or save as a draft, depending on your site’s moderation settings). When ready to publish select the drop down in the middle of the page and choose Published. Then Save.
- Once the content is published, a default Alias will automatically be generated for the group. This alias is the URL path for the content, making it easy for users to access. You do not need to manually create an alias unless customization is required.

- Refer to the content type document (e.g., article, event) for specific information on how to edit different content types.
- After filling in the required fields for the content type, click on Preview to see how your content will appear on the site.
- Once satisfied, click on Save to confirm and publish (or save as a draft, depending on your site’s moderation settings).
Additional Tips:
- Content Moderation: If your site uses content moderation, your content may be saved as a draft or require approval before it goes live.
