This section contains information on each of the Site component's fields, their purpose, and input requirements.
Content tab
Site name
- Enter the descriptive title for the name of the site.
- This information is used in various areas throughout the site such as: the logo's alt tag, the default 'from name' for emails, the footer of emails, and anywhere that the name of the site must be represented.
Site URL (Primary domain)
- Enter the full URL of the primary domain which you wish people to use to access this site.
- The domain must be prefixed with "http://" and have a trailing forward slash "/".
For example: "http://www.mydomain.com/"
Server alias (Secondary domains)
- Enter a space delimited list of any other domains which you have pointing to the server which you would like to redirect to this site.
- Do not prefix the domains with "http://" or include trailing forward slashes "/".
For example: "www.domain1.com www.domain2.com".
Site interface

Default navigation
- When loading the Site tree component, by default the Navigation group menu will select the topmost option. If this site uses a specific navigation group, that you wish to be selected by default when logging into the CMS, then select the navigation group here. Note: For this to take effect for a specific site you must log into the CMS using that site's domain. For example, if you log into the CMS using http://www.mydomain.co.uk/cms/ then the selected default navigation for http://www.mydomain.co.uk/ will be selected in the site tree. In the same manner when logged into http://www.otherdomain.co.uk/cms/ the default navigation of http://www.otherdomain.co.uk/ will be selected.
Meta data tab
- The data saved here represents the default meta data that will be applied to all pages of the site.
- Unique meta data can be assigned to individual pages within Website / Site tree.

Meta description
