Both the home and about pages contain static pages: content that remains the same whenever any user accesses the page.
ICA-AtoM ships with a default welcome message on the home page and an about page that provides additional information about the application and project. Both these pages can be edited by administrators or editors to reflect their own institution or network's requirements. There are two ways to access the edit screen: from a link on the pages themselves or from the admin > static pages tab.

1. Go to the home page or the about page.
2. Click the edit this page link.
3. ICA-AtoM routes you to the edit static page screen.

5. ICA-AtoM routes you to the list static pages screen, showing all static pages in the application.
