YIT Sitefinity CMS Users Guide for Site Managers

This Users Guide is directed to YIT Site Managers, but may be used by users of any user group. The Guide describes the Sitefinity CMS in general and its functionalities related to updating and creating content to local YIT websites in particular.

1.1 About Sitefinity

Sitefinity is a modern CMS, chosen by YIT as the platform for all of its websites. Sitefinity is developed by Telerik and customized and supported by Uoma. For further information about Sitefinity, see the Sitefinity website www.Sitefinity.com. In Sitefinity web-pages are built on a template, which itself may be based on a parent template. The content on a page is divided into smaller manageable pieces called Content Blocks and Widgets.

1.2 Logging to Sitefinity

Go to http://yit.test.uoma.fi/Sitefinity to log into Sitefinity. Type your username and password to the respective fields, see image below. To change your password, please refer to the section Editing Your Profile:

1.3 Sitefinity Dashboard

Once you have successfully logged into Sitefinity your first view will be the Dashboard. For now, you will see the standard Sitefinity Dashboard (see image below) with links to tutorials and documentation. The YIT Sitefinity Dashboard will however be customized and will contain customized training material and a view of the JIRA the bugtracking tool used by Uoma. You may use the JIRA to report bugs or to create feature requests (if you are an Administrator) as well as a knowledge database.

1.4 Creating and managing pages (Pages View)

Pages are managed in the Pages View. Click on Pages on the top navigation to get to the Pages View. Typical Pages View shown below:

6 3 4 5

1. Sometimes searching may be the easiest way to find the Page to be edited. Use the name or a part of the name of a page in the search. Click on Search and

Page 5

enter the search word(s).

2. Sorting the view may be useful, if you want to view the last modified or last created pages or want to switch back to the default hierarchical view after a search. 3. Collapse or uncollapse a subsite. Click on the triangle to open or close the view of a subsite. 4. If a Page has language versions you can see the versions here. Click on the Edit link to edit the desired version. By clicking on the Add link you may also add a language version to a page. 5. There are several actions you can perform from the Actions Menu, see image below: Delete: Delete a Page Unpublish: Unpublish a Page Duplicate: Duplicate the Page. This is especially useful for creating new pages using the existing one as a model. Create a child page: Creates a Page under this Page. Edit Content: Edit the content of this Page Edit Title & Properties: Edit the Title and Properties of this Page Edit Permissions: Edit the Permissions of this Page. Only for Admin-users, see the Admin Users Guide for more information. Edit Revision History: See the earlier versions of this Page and revert to an earlier version of this Page if desired. Change Template: Change the template of a Page use with caution. The changing of the template may lose the content of the Page. see the Admin Users Guide for more information. Change Owner: Change the Owner of a Page Move Up / Down: Move the Page up or down on the list Affects the navigation of the Site. 6. Click on View to show the Page on a new tab. 7. There are several Filtering options for the Pages listing that may help you in finding the Pages you need to edit.

1.5 Creating a Page

There are three ways to create a Page: 1. From scratch using the Create a page button on the top left on the Pages View. 2. By duplicating using the Actions menu function Duplicate (see above). Page 6

3. By creating a child page for an existing page using the Actions menu function Create a child page (see above), which creates a new page underneath the selected page in the site hierarchy. Any one of these three options opens the Create a Page dialog of which the top part is shown below.

Note that you can undo creating a Page by clicking on Back to Pages. This same Create a page dialog is used with the functionalities Duplicate, Create a child page and Edit Title & Properties on the Actions menu of the Pages View. When creating a page, first type the Name of the Page in the appropriate field the name to be shown in the navigation. Then proceed into setting the level in the site hierarchy under which the Page will be put. See image below:

Select the appropriate level and click on Done. Proceed to setting the Page URL (preferably use the Search Engine Optimized version provided by Sitefinity). See image below: Decide if the Page is to be shown in the Navigation (by default checked and should be unchecked only in special cases). See image below: Click on Use this page only to group other pages only in special cases this kind of a Page is for grouping only and does not have any content. See image below:

Page 7

Next add a Title to be shown on the browsers titlebar. See image below:

Then choose the template for the Page. For each site there is a set of templates that may be used for different types of pages for the Front Page, for Section Front Pages, for Content Pages etc. Always use only the templates created for your site (the name of the template indicates to which site it is created). E.g. for the YITgroup.com site the templates used are as follows: YIT Group Frontpage for the Front Page only YIT Group Section Nav3Cols for Section Front Pages YIT Group Content Nav3Cols for Content Pages

There are also some custom templates for special functionality. Editing templates is allowed only for admin and is described in the Admin Users Guide. Check from an existing page of the same type (by opening the page for editing and choosing the Layout view), what template you should use or consult an admin user. You may open the Description, Keywords fields by clicking on the triangle in front of them (see image below). In the Description field it is recommended (but not mandatory) to provide a description of the Page. This description provides information to search engines that might help in SEO (Search Engine Optimization). In the Keywords field it is also recommended (but not mandatory) to add relevant keywords that best describe the content of the Page for the same SEO reasons. Finally, to finalize the Page creation process either create the Page using the Create and go to add content or create the Page and return back to the Pages View using the Create and return to Pages. To cancel the creation of the Page, click on the link Back to Pages.

1.6 Editing the Content of a Page

There are two main ways to edit the content of a Page. You may either open the Page in the Editor or browse the Site and edit the content while browsing. 1.6.1 Editing Pages in the Editor In the Pages view (see Creating and Managing Pages) you can click on the name of the Page to get to the Page Editor or you can use the Actions Menu command Edit Content. See the image below for a typical Page Editor view in which you see the content of the page, which consists of elements from the template and of editable content elements called Widgets.

Page 9

You can edit existing content by clicking on the Edit link on the top of a Widget. To add new Widgets to a page, just drag and drop them from the column on the right to the page to wherever there is a marker Drag widgets here. Or duplicate an existing widget by choosing duplicate from the widgets More-menu. To delete a widget, click on Delete from the widgets More-menu. Permissions of a widget are covered in the Admin Users Guide. Once you have finished editing you have several options:

Publish your changes immediately by clicking on the Publish button. Save your page as a Draft for further editing the page will remain unpublished by clicking on the Save as Draft button. Preview what you have edited by clicking on the Preview button Note this will NOT save the changes you have made in the Editor. Discard all changes and go back to the Pages view by clicking on the Back to Pages link.

Clicking on the More Actions button will give you more options: Discard Draft Discard all changes and go back to the Pages view Schedule Publish/Unpublish Use this option to set the timed publishing and / or

Page 10

unpublishing of a Page

Note that the time shown is Finnish time. Delete for deleting the Page Unpublish for unpublishing the Page

1.6.2 Widgets A complete listing of widgets is provided below with descriptions. Content Block The Content Block is the most versatile widget, since you can add almost any kind of content into it, see image below.

Use the editor to edit the content and Save changes when you are ready or Cancel if you dont want to cancel the changes you have made. The WYSIWYG editor works similarly as your typical word processing tool except for a few features described below: Use styles instead of font settings. You have the option to choose the font typeface and size, but they should not be changed. Use the Heading-styles for headings and Paragraph for standard text. Feel free to use Bolding and Italics

Page 11

when needed, but consistently, so that the particular styling is always used for the same purpose. Be careful with Copy+Pasting. Especially pasting from MS Word should be done using the Paste from Word tool: Plain text can always be safely pasted. Images cannot be pasted to the editor except from websites, which creates a link to the image on the original website so it too should be avoided. There are several options for adding links. o Hyperlink Editor This is the main tool to create links in Sitefinity. After selecting the word/words to be linked choose the type of the link:

For external links use Web address add the complete link to the Web address field. For links within the site use Page from this site choose the link from the page hierarchy-view. For e-mail links use E-mail add the e-mail address to the Email address field.

Each of these options has a More options section (Open this link in a new window not available for Email-links).

Note that the CSS class is not used (link classes are pre-defined) and Open this link in a new window should be used only for external links.

Remove Link

Page 12

Use this functionality to remove an existing link.

Insert Hyperlink this functionality is for special use-cases such as adding bookmarks to pages for links inside a page and creating links to these bookmarks. So to create a link from one part of a page to another part (marked with a bookmark), follow these steps: 1. Select the word where you want to place the bookmark aka anchor. 2. Click on Insert Link and then on All properties and finally on the Anchor-tab

and name the Bookmark. 3. Finally click on OK. You can now insert a link to this bookmark. o To create a link to a bookmark, follow these steps: 1. Select the word where you want to place the bookmark aka anchor. 2. Click on Insert Link and then on All properties and finally on the Hyperlink-tab

Choose the bookmark from the Existing Anchor drop-down. 3. Finally click on OK.

Page 13

Tip: when creating a Heading that is a link. Create the link first and only after that change the style to a heading-style. (This will make sure that the heading has the link styling.) Adding images, videos and documents are covered in section Inserting Images, Videos and Documents to Pages. To add a flash-element to a page use the content editors Flash Manager : image below: . See

First choose the Flash-element from the existing ones by clicking on it or upload a new flash-file from your local computer by clicking on the Upload button. Once you have chosen the correct file, fill in the Properties, see image below:

You may leave the default settings for all the other fields, but remember to specify the Width and Height. Once you have entered the Properties click on Insert.

Page 14

Inserting and editing tables. To add a simple table click on and paint the amount of cells needed. For formatting the table, right-click on a table, see image below.

You may specify the settings on the left or use a predefined CSS Class Layout (especially the class telerik-re Table-1), which is recommended.

Sometimes extra settings are needed and they can be set by clicking on the Advanced button. Examples of useful extra settings will be added to this manual if important use cases show up.

Image Select the image from already uploaded or upload it using the From your computer functionality. For more detailed instructions see section Inserting Images, Videos and Documents to Pages below. If a border is needed for the image, use the Shadow Image widget described below. Note that in the image widget it is not possible to add a link to an image, but it is possible to do so in the Shadow Image widget

Shadow Image The Shadow Image widget is a custom widget in which the image is bordered by the standard YIT-border-style. The Shadow Image also has extra features, such as:

Page 15

Title: creates a title on top of the image Text on image: Writes text on top of the image. Link to navigate: there is no link-selector for internal links, but internal links can be added by Copying the URL of the page to be linked starting with the site-prefix e.g. /YIT_GROUP/industrial-services/IndustrialMaintenance . Links outside the YIT-site should be given with the httpprefix e.g. http://www.google.fi/ .

Shadow image settings:

Image Gallery Select the images to be shown in the gallery by one or a combination of criteria, see image below: By selecting one or a number of: albums categories tags or dates

1.7 Editing Content While Browsing

Once you have logged into Sitefinity you will see a Tools Menu on the upper right corner of the Page. The menu will open when you click on it, see below:

By clicking on the Show editing tools you will enable the editing features. Note that you can only edit existing Content Blocks and Widgets while browsing. You must enter the Page Editor e.g. by clicking on the Edit this page in the Backend -link in the Tools-menu, to add or delete Content Blocks and / or Widgets. See a typical view of a Page with editing tools below:

Page 21

Clicking on the little Edit button will enable you to edit a Content Block / Widget. The content will be opened to the same WYSIWYG Editor as when editing a Content Block in the Page Editor.

1.8 Editing the Layout of a Page

Editing the layout of a Page is done in the same Page Editor as the editing of the Page. To edit a Page go to the Pages View and click on the title of a Page or Choose Edit Content from the Actions menu. See the image under Creating and managing pages. Once in the Page editor, choose Layout on the top of the right column to show the layout options. See image below:

As with content elements (Content Blocks and Widgets) drag the desired layout element to the boxed marked with Drag layout elements. The custom layout elements created for YIT follow a numbering pattern in which the first number stands for the width of the element in columns (1-4) followed by the configuration how the columns are grouped, see example below:

Page 22

3: 1+ 1+ 1 Layout-element: three columns wide with three one column elements inside example of use:

1.9 Adding Images, Videos and Files to pages

You may add Images, Videos and Files either to a Content Block using the appropriate buttons on the Content WYSIWYG Editor or by adding an Image, Video or Document Widget to a box in the Page in the Page Editor. Adding Images is described in detail below. Files and videos are added similarly as images. 1.9.1 Inserting an Image The following dialog will be shown in every case in which you are adding an Image. First you must decide are you going to upload an image from your computer or are you going to use an existing image:

If you choose to upload the Image from your computer, clicking on the Select button will open a dialog box where you can browse the contents of your computer and choose the image to be uploaded. If you choose to use an existing image, click on the link From already uploaded. See image below:

Page 23

On the left you have different Image Albums to choose from and on the right you have the Images. Click on the Image to choose it and press the Save button to save it. If you want Cancel inserting an Image, use the Cancel link.

1.10

Managing Images in Sitefinity

To Manage Images, go to Content > Images. The Image View will appear, see the image below. Videos and Documents are managed similarly in their respective Views in the Content Menu.

Page 24

Adding images to Sitefinity may be done using the Upload images Button. Grouping Images to Albums can easily be done by ticking the checkboxes of the images to be added to an album and choosing Move to another album from the More actions menu. You may create albums by clicking on the button Create an album on the top of the Images view. To edit Albums go to the Albums view by clicking on the Manage albums link on the right. See image below:

Page 25

In this view you can create an Album, Delete an existing one and Merge two or more Albums together using the respective buttons on the top of the page. Note that albums do not have hierarchies. A work-around for this is to name the albums by repeating prefixes e.g. Services, Services-ServiFlex, Services-Other.

1.11

Creating and Editing News

Go to Content > News to edit and create News items. The News View will appear, see image below:

When creating a new News item or editing an existing one you will be directed to the News editor. See image below:

On the top you have the same action buttons as with Pages and below them the Title, Content and Summary fields. Next you have the Category and Tag fields essential for News. Categories are used to decide in which site/sites/subsites the News item is to be shown. Tags are relevant for searching both within the site and by search engines. See image below:

Tick on the categories you want to choose and add the relevant tags either by typing them to the text box provided and/or choosing them from the existing tags. Next we have the custom fields for images to be shown on the News items image reel and the documents to be made available with the News item. See image below:

Page 27

1.12

Page 29

1.13

Forms Settings

In the Settings-tab the following settings can be made, see image below: 1.13.1 Restrictions Under Restrictions you can restrict the access to a particular form. One entry per IP useful is e.g. surveys and voting where you only want to allow a single posting of the form from a single ip-address. One entry per username not applicable because we do not have usernames for external users browsing the site. No restrictions default setting and typical e.g. for contact forms.

1.13.2 Confirmation options Sitefinity has two options to inform the user that the form has been sent. Show message for success o Does not require the creation of a landing (or thank you) page, but is not a sophisticated as directing the user to a purpose built landing page.

Redirect to a page o Recommended. The page needs to be created in advance. Add the URL of the desired landing page into the field below the text Redirect to a page

The last fields (Label placement and CSS class) are not covered here.

Page 30

1.13.3 Form Settings in the Page Editor Once you add a form to a page you can modify its settings by clicking on the Editbutton on the top-bar of the form-widget and a Select a form dialog-box will appear (see images below):

1.14

Viewing the Data Posted by Users via a Form

Once you have a published form on your site you can view the Form data posted by users by clicking on the responses link on the same row as your form on the Forms View. See the Responses View below:

Page 31

The data collected may also be exported as a CSV-file that can be opened e.g. in MS EXCEL. To export the data, click on Export as CSV. The data will be downloaded into your computer as a CSV-file. Depending on the browser you use it may also give you an option to open the file directly in MS EXCEL, see example below from the Mozilla Firefox browser.

1.15

Map Locations (Maps)

A custom built POI (Point Of Interest) database is attached to Sitefinity. It is intended that the database will mainly be updated from external sources or by data dumps. However if a single Map location is needed, it can also be created using the Maps editor. In Content > Maps, click on Create a map item to create a map item, the Map editor opens. See image below to see the editor and the fields.

Page 32

Page 33

1.16

Offices

Go to Content > Offices to edit and create Offices. The Offices View will appear, see image below: This is a custom functionality created by Uoma but its user interface is similar to basic Views in Sitefinity.

Creating an Office by the Create an office item button or clicking on an Office will open the Office Editor which is similar to e.g. the News Editor. In the Offices editor you have a custom Locations on map component (see image below) with which you can select a Map location for an Office.

1.17

References (Case Studies)

References is a new feature where references for different business needs are collected to a single database from which they can be displayed in any YIT-site. This Reference database also helps smaller countries to show group level references in a situation where local ones are not available. In the current implementation in YIT Group references are grouped under categories and shown as thumbnails on the References Main Page, see image below. Note that the categories used for references must be created hierarchically under the References category.

Page 34

The fields describing the Reference are shown on the References Page. Go to Content > Case Studies to edit and create References. The Case Studies View will appear, see image below: This is a custom functionality created by Uoma but its user interface is similar to basic Views in Sitefinity.

Page 35

Creating a Reference by the Create a case study button or clicking on a Case Study will open the Case Study Editor which is similar to e.g. the News Editor. In the Case Studies editor you have the same custom Locations on map component as in the Offices View with which you can select a Map location for a Reference. Reference images must be added to the image bank earlier as they can not be uploaded from computer while creating the Reference. 1.17.1 The Case Studies Editor The main fields of the Case Studies editor are Title and Content as with News and Offices, see image below:

Note that the Title should not be too long as it is displayed over the image on the References page and underneath the image on the References-rotator. See images below.

The Summary of the reference is shown underneath the thumbnail-image of a reference. Select a single category for the reference which will define under which heading the Reference will be shown on the References Page. Remember to only use categories under the References category.

Page 36

Currently there is no functionality attached to Tags for references. You may edit the URL of the Reference in the URL-field, but the default URL is already Search Engine Optimized, so it should be used by default. Commenting is disabled for References. Add downloadable documents in the Documents section, see images below. Note that the name of the document is shown on the References Page, so rename the Document if needed for a shot but descriptive name.

As with offices you can add a Map Location to the Reference, which will be displayed on the References page.

You may add an unrestricted amount of images for a reference, which are shown in an image-carousel on the References Page. Clicking an image on the carousel opens the image on a lightbox-layer. Remember to set a Thumbnail image to be shown on the References Main Page and a Large Image to be shown on the References Page.

Marketing Site Features

The Marketing Site features are a set of templates and a widget to allow users to upload their own images to be shown on the (Marketing) site. 1.18.1 Marketing Site Templates The Marketing Site Templates include an empty one and a number of theme colored templates to be used when creating marketing sites. Any YIT site may have an indefinite amount of Marketing Sites. The marketing site structure will not be visible in the main navigation. Marketing Sites will be set in the site structure of a country site in the main level and named per Marketing Site, e.g. www.yit.se/yit-se/marketing - special redirect aliases may also be set for marketing sites e.g. www.yit.se/marketing.

1.18.2 Marketing Site: Customer Images Uploading Possibility for customers to upload their images is possible by adding a File Uploader widget to the page in a Marketing Site. This feature is to be used ONLY with Marketing Sites. Maximum file size will be limited to 2 MB and the following file extensions will be allowed: .bmp, .gif, .jpg and .png only 1 image can be uploaded at a time. Images will be stored to a specific library in Sitefinity and will not be shown automatically. Customer Images to be viewed on the marketing site can be added via the image or image gallery widget.

Page 39

The heading is updated using the Header field in the Edit box and the text below the heading in the Content field.

1.19

Voting Form

The voting form functionality is a combination of a form created in the Form-editor and settings set in the Voting Form widget. The voting form itself can be created in the Forms editor as any form, but with the restriction that only the Voting List widget may be used. Remember also to add a Submit button to the form. See image below with editing view of a voting form shown with the Voting List widget editing view shown on top..

The choices of the voting form are set in the Choices section of the Voting List edit view. Where both the name of the choice and its respective (optional) link can be set.

Advanced Search Managing the blacklist

There is a blacklist connected to the advanced search, which hides search results from the Popular Searches. The Popular Searches functionality shows twelve most popular search words used in the search of the YIT site in question. The popularity of the different search phrases can be monitored at any time by viewing the results of the Popular search form. The popularity of each search phrase is shown on its row on the results page by showing the number of times this search phrase has been used. For easier analysis you may export the results as a CSV-file for example to MS EXCEL. See section 1.14 Viewing the Data Posted by Users via a Form on how to view the results of a form and how to export the results to a CSV file. The blacklist is managed by the Advanced search widget on the page where the Advanced search is located. To manage the blacklist, click on Edit on the Advanced search widget. See image below. The blacklist is located in the Advanced settings, so click on the Advanced button to enter the Advanced settings view also pictured below. In the Advanced settings the blacklist is contained in the BlackListWords field. In the field, the phrases not to be shown on the Popular Searches view are listed with a semicolon ; as a separator between the search phrases.
