Edit Home page via page link
Edit Home page via Admin tab
Edit screen (Home page)


Both the Home and About screens 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 screen and an About page that provides additional information about the application and project. Both these pages can be edited by system 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.


Edit via page link

1. Go to the Home or About screen.


2. Click the Edit this page link.


3. ICA-AtoM routes you to the Edit static page screen.

4. Click the Admin > Static pages tab.


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