Heading LevelsYou can't just change the font size and color to make a heading if you want the following important features:
First select some text on your page that will become a heading. Then go to this menu and choose any of the headings H2, H3 or H4. If you have pasted text from another program (MS Word) then you may have to Clear formatting before applying the heading. This strips the tags from the text so that they don't override Google Sites' heading tags. Use "Normal paragraph text" to space your paragraphs within pages for web readability. Add a Table of ContentsSection authored by Carmen, edited by Dr SmithFirst, make sure that your page has Headings (see above) that are formatted as headings using the Google Sites editing bar. Place your cursor where you want your table of contents to appear. To add a Table of Contents go to Insert. Then click on Table of Contents. The following Table should come up. This is where you have the option to choose the size of your Table of Contents.
Once you have positioned your Table of Contents you can click Save on top of your page to see what the contents look like. NOTE: The Table of Contents will only be populated if you have 1st , 2nd and 3rd level headings on your page. If you do not have any headings on your page your Table of Contents will look like this:
Add a linkSection authored by Carmen, edited by Dr SmithTo add a Link please highlight the words you would like a link created to and then go to Insert, then Link, or go directly to Link on the Menu Bar. Please make sure that you are in Edit Mode to perform this action, otherwise you will not see the Menu Bar. This is what your page should look like. Notice the part I highlighted that says Link. Select Web Address, then enter the url address where you would like the link to be made. Make sure you check off “Open this link in new window” so that when you click on the link a new explorer window will open and you will not navigate away from your original page. Click ok. A link should have now been created. When you hover your mouse over the link you should see the url you entered and where the link will take you.
