Editing a Marketing Page

The Marketing Page Template is used for marketing initiatives managed by one or more agencies that require more of a promotional layout. The Marketing page is similar to the Agency Landing Page, but does not provide a navigation box. However, other pages that link off the Marketing page will display a navigation box.

NOTE: The Marketing Page can also be edited from the Content Editor  .

 The step-by-step instructions will walk you through editing the Marketing Page from the Experience Editor.

1. Log into Sitecore. Once logged in, you will be directed to your Agency website landing page in Preview Mode.
2. Using the Navigation Bar, navigate to the Marketing page you wish to edit. Do not see the Navigation bar under the Experience Editor Ribbon?
   
   • Select the > symbol after your Agency name to view a drop down of folders available. Keep drilling down until you come across the Marketing page you wish to edit, then select the edit button.
3. Select the Go button. The Marketing Page will open with a yellow warning message, if it is unlocked.
   
4. Select the Lock and Edit link in the message box.
5. Edit any of the page areas:
   • Marketing Banner
