2. Step-by-Step Instructions

Content on the Overview Page

When you log in, the Overview Page shows a content panel below your Jobs and Active Alerts snapshot. From top to bottom it has:

  1. Recent content — cards for the most recently published items. Each card shows the content type, the title, its Folder › Category › Sub Category path and the short description. Urgent items are marked.
  2. A list of further recent items — one line each, with the title, the date and the category.
  3. Folders — some of the folders you have access to. Select View All to see the rest.

Click a card or a line to open the item, or click a folder to browse it. View All at the top right of the panel opens the full Content Hub page.

The Content Hub page

Select Content Hub in the left menu to open the full library. The menu item carries the name your company has given the module. The page has three sections:

  1. Highlights / Urgent — items that have been highlighted or marked urgent.
  2. Folders — every folder available to you.
  3. Recent Content — the most recently published items.

At the top right of the page you can:

  • Search — type a word or phrase in the search box. Search looks at the title and the short description of each item.
  • Sort by — newest, oldest, urgent or A–Z. Newest is the default.

Browse a folder

  1. On the Content Hub page, click a folder.
  2. The folder opens as a single list, Documents & Content, of everything in it that you are allowed to see. Each row shows the title and short description, the Type, the Category, the Sub Category and the Date.
  3. To narrow the list, use the row of filters under the column headings:
    • type part of a title in the search box under Title;
    • choose a Type, a Category or a Sub Category from the lists.
  4. Click an item to open it.
  5. Select Back at the top left to return to the Content Hub page.

3. Tips and Tricks

Best Practices: If you know roughly what an item is called, search first. If you know which department it belongs to, open that folder and filter by category.
