Step 1: Create the New Page:
- Navigate to the CourseLeaf Admin Console: https://nextcatalog.dmu.edu/courseleaf/
- On the left hand side, select "Create Page"
- Create the page URL (this should be aligned with the current URL and include everything after the .edu; for example, to create a new page under the DO Program in the Handbook, the URL would be /handbook/do/new-page-title. The URL cannot contain any capital letters or spaces. It is recommended that all URLs contain the page title with a hyphen between each word.
**Note: You will want to copy and paste this URL, as you will need it to complete future steps.
Step 2: Update the Page Title
- Navigate to the newly created page using the URL added above (*note: you will need to add the https://nextcatalog.dmu.edu before the URL entered)

Step 4: Add Page Owners and Workflows
- Navigate to the page
- Click the Edit Page in the upper left-hand corner
- Click Owners and Workflows
