Write pages for a doc site

Every page on a doc site is an article in your library, so you can write it in two places: right on the site's Pages screen, or anywhere you already write articles in Clevera and then add it to a site. This article covers both, the page statuses you'll see, and how a page reaches readers.

Before you start#

• To write new articles on a site you need to be an owner, administrator or Content Creator. Editors can edit existing pages but not create new ones; they see "Your role can edit existing content but cannot create new content."
• To publish you need to be an owner, administrator or editor. Content Creators write, and one of them publishes.

Write a new article on the site#

1. Open New article#

   On Pages, click Add pages (or Add pages here… in a section's menu), choose Write it here and click Continue.

2. Fill in the dialog#

   New article says "It's saved in your library and shows on this site."

   Field	What to enter
   Title	Up to 200 characters
   Add to	The top level, a section or a group
   Language	One of the site's languages
   Start with	Blank: "An empty page, ready to write." Draft with AI: "From a topic, with the editor's AI. You review it before it stays."
   What should it cover?	Shown for Draft with AI: describe the topic. "Nothing is spent until you run the draft in the editor."

3. Create it#

   Click Create article (or Create and draft). The article opens in the editor on the Pages screen. With Draft with AI, the editor's AI starts from your topic, and you keep or change what it writes.

The new article goes into the folder the section follows, if it follows one. Otherwise it's saved at the top level of Content. It stays Not ready until it has text, so an empty article never publishes.

Edit and preview a page#

Click any page on Pages to open it. The left rail lists the site's pages; the bar at the top shows the page, its status and these controls:

The editor is the same one you use for any article: text, headings, screenshots, callouts, video blocks and more. See Edit an article and its screenshots. Edits save as you type.

If an article is still being written by the AI, the page says "Being written by AI… It opens for editing when the run finishes." If the article is in a collection you can't open, you can still change the page's settings and see its insights.

Page statuses#

The status next to a page tells you whether readers see your latest text.

The page bar shows Live, or Not live yet with "Readers see this page after the next publish."

Add an article from elsewhere in Clevera#

From Content#

In Content, open an article's menu and choose Add to doc site…. The option appears when your workspace has a doc site, and only for articles.

Click Add to site. The article "stays in your library", and a message confirms, for example, "Added to Acme Help › Getting started."

From the Share window#

In the article editor, click Share → Publish. Clevera Doc sites ("Your hosted help centers") is listed first, with one row per site: "Not on this site" with Add to site, or the page's state with a link to it.

See where an article is live#

• In Content, a globe next to an article's title means it's on a doc site. Hover it to see "Live on Acme Help" (or "On Acme Help" before the first publish) and the page's address. An amber dot means a publish would change something.
• In the article editor, a pill in the top bar names the site, for example "Acme Help · Changed since publish", with Publish. With several sites it reads "On 2 sites" and opens a list.

People who can't publish see the pill's state without the button.

Write in more than one language#

A page has one article per language, and each is written and published on its own. On Pages, use the Language filter to see one language's pages. A page opened in a language it has no article for shows "No article in this language yet." Readers in a language without a translation see the default-language page with a short notice. See Add languages to a doc site.
