This article describes how to create a new online article in the IMS Handbook. More information can be found in the Document360 Knowledge Base - refer to Creating an article.
Checking the Handbook Version
Make sure the latest project version of the IMS Handbook is selected. Older versions will be kept for backup as well as for readers that are still on the older version of IMS, but we will always add the new documents to the latest version (unless otherwise agreed).
Creating a Category
If not available yet, first create the appropriate category in the IMS Handbook:
Go to the documents tab.
Scroll to the applicable position in the hierarchy and hover to get the plus button.
Click the plus button.
Click Category.
Add an appropriate Name.
Confirm the Location.
Select Index.
Click Create.
Caution
New Categories have to be added to the relevant reader groups before they become visible to people outside of Cenosco.
Creating the Article
To create a new article in the IMS Handbook:
Scroll to the applicable position in the hierarchy and hover to get the plus button.
Click the plus button.
Click Article.
Click Blank.
Enter the Title of the article.
Caution
When naming your article, remember that it should be possible to recognize each article from the search results (thus out of context from subsequent and following articles).
Note
If you imported / created an article and it was imported into / created in the wrong category/position, you can just drag the article to the correct place in the IMS Handbook
Cloning Articles

Select the Category where you want to replicate the article.
Replicate.
Caution
Replicated articles cannot be edited. To make any changes you have to edit the original article.
