General

 

General tab fields:

 

Document alias

The unique name of the document in the given section of the web site. This name doesn't change when you modify the document name and it's used:

1.to define the AliasPath, which is the unique path of the document. The developers typically use the AliasPath in the Path property of the web parts and controls.
2.for the URL of the document. The URL of the document is like
www.kentico.com/products/cms.aspx
where /products/cms is the alias path of the document.

 

Forbidden characters

 

Some characters are forbidden in URLs and thus they are replaced with a safe character (by default, it's dash -). You can specify the forbidden characters and the replacement character in Site Manager -> Settings -> URLs, in values "Forbidden characters replacement" and "Forbidden URL characters".

 

Document URL path

If you want to use a specific URL for a given document that doesn't depend on the document AliasPath, you need to check the box Use custom URL path and enter the value, such as:

/cms-for-asp-net

The URL path must always start with /. Then, the document is accessible through two URLs:

www.kentico.com/products/cms.aspx

www.kentico.com/cms-for-asp-net.aspx

 

The URL path is useful if you need to define a short URL of some page or if you need to optimize the URL for search engines.

 

The URL path is, unlike the alias path, culture-specific. It means if you use URL paths:

/product (for English version)

/produkt (for German version)

 

then when the user comes to /produkt.aspx, the language of the web site is automatically switched to German.

CSS Stylesheet

The CSS stylesheet used for the given page. You can choose some particular stylesheet or use the default site stylesheet. You can also choose to inherit the stylesheet from the parent document.

Owner

Document owner is the user responsible for its editing.

 

This feature doesn't imply any special permissions for the owner, but it allows for easier orientation in documents. The owner can see all her documents in My Desk -> My Documents section.

 

The owner is by default set to the user who created the document. The owner can be changed only by users with "Modify permissions" permission.

Cache

This option allows you to specify if the page content should be cached in memory (full-page caching). You can choose to inherit the settings from the parent document or to set a different value or to disable full-page caching.
