Editor role

The Clone content feature allows users to create a page/content item (Basic page, Custom page, FAQ item, etc.) and then efficiently create a copy of that page/content item, including any page customizations.

The Berkeley Web Builder "Hero" feature allows you to display text in the page title area of a Custom page with either a full-width image or background color or as a color band. Hero images can also be displayed without text.

The Custom page type is meant for pages that need multiple sections, rows, and/or columns of content using layouts via the page customization feature.

The Basic page content type is meant for simple pages with a fixed, one-column format with a local (sidebar) menu.

The Berkeley Web Builder platform comes with two built-in, generic content types (Basic and Custom pages), as well as specific content types (News, FAQ, Person, Department, Portfolio, Publication) that are used with the platform's additional features, which are optional and available upon request.

Content is added to Berkeley Web Builder sites via content types (pages) and page widgets. Any user account with a role can work with content within the scope of that role's permissions.

Berkeley Web Builder is built to support digital accessibility.

The Features page on the dashboard contains a grid of available features on the Berkeley Web Builder platform and whether each feature is enabled on your site.

Anyone working on a Berkeley Web Builder site will need to have a user account with a role in order to log in (via CalNet/ cas) and access the site and platform tools. The platform comes with 5 user roles with different levels of permissions: Site Manager, Site Builder, Editor, Contributor, and Member. Only the Site Manager role can modify user roles on user accounts.

A sidebar admin menu and a dashboard is available to Berkeley Web Builder user accounts when logged in to their site with a user role. The dashboard contains various sections for completing tasks on your site, such as adding and managing content, using categories, managing menus, accessing site settings, and more.
