Use what you've just learned to edit one or more of of your pages. This includes a sampling of tasks to orient you with using Google Sites tools.  Due to time constraints, you may not be able to get to the Optional exercises in the Workshop session, but you are encouraged to complete them later.  If you need assistance with instructions refer back to the basic skills section:  google-sites-training.raabfamily.net/basics.

To add a table of contents, place the cursor above the other text, then:  Insert -> Common -> Table of Contents

• You can use the default settings on the 'Insert Table of Contents' dialog.
• But you may also try out different setting of parameters. 
• Position the TOC Right Justified with Text Wrapping by using the Object Position options that appear when you click on the gray TOC object.
• Save the page. Note in edit mode objects are gray boxes, and object contents (i.e., the Table of Contents) are only generated in normal pages.  
• Verify that the Table of Contents is in line with what you expected from the headings you prepared.

Links

Still on the 'Text' page, enter 'edit mode' and prepare some links under the Links Practice heading.  Practice these 3 types of links:

• Page - prepare a link that goes to another page in your site.
• External - prepare a URL link that goes to another website (i.e., www.ibm.com)
• Email - prepare a URL link for sending email

To create a Page Link:  Position the cursor, then click the Link toolbar button (it looks like chain links).  In the dialog box, select a page and click Save.  This adds a link to the page which appears with a URL, 'Change' and Remove' links to test and adjust the link if desired.

To create an External Link (2 options):

1. Type the URL into the text of the page.  Highlight the URL text and click the Link button. OR
2. Positioning the cursor and click the Link toolbar button.  This time, select 'Web address' on the left.  Then enter the URL and display text.
3. Optionally check the box for 'Open this link in a new window'.
   

To create an Email Link.    Follow the same instructions as external links.

1. Type the email address into the text of the page.  Highlight the email text and click the Link button. OR
2. Positioning the cursor and click the Link toolbar button.  This time, select 'Web address' on the left.  Then enter the email address in the URL field and add some display text.

Starting on the 'Text' page.  Click on the New Page button.

• Name the page 'Tables'
• for 'Select a location' choose: 'Put page under 'Text'

This places you into edit mode on the new Tables page…

We're going to make the following table:

My Cars

Car Mfgr.	Model	Year	Color	Year Disposed

Here are the steps:

1. Start with a couple blank lines on the page, and type "My Cars" 
2. Then on the next line create the table using command: Table -> Insert Table-> 5x4 
3. Type the titles into the top row
4. Make the titles bold
5. Resize the columns by clicking on a cell, and then dragging the edge resize markers
6. Title row - if it is still multiple lines high, drag this back to a single line high.

It should look similar to the above.

Next:

1. Enter data for one of your cars
2. Add a column to the right of 'Year Disposed' for 'Reason'
• select the right column, then use command Table -> Insert column on the right
3. That's the idea.  Save page.

Page settings

Notice the additional 'Attachments' and 'Comments' areas at the bottom of a page.  

• To get rid of them run the command More actions -> Page Settings
• In the dialog uncheck 'attachments' and uncheck 'comments'.
• Review the other page settings while you're there.

Practice on one page.
