When creating a new page, you define the basic settings of the page. These settings correspond to the options you will later find in the Page Settings in the Editor.

During page creation, these settings are not divided into tabs, but are displayed one below another in a single form.

The fields correspond to the three settings areas:

  • Page

  • Meta

  • Groups

If attributes have been defined in the dashboard (for example Author or Topic), they will also appear as additional fields in the form.

All information can be changed later in the Page Settings in the Editor.
