Site Types & Locations

You can create a generic list of locations to make it easier to set up locations against individual sites instead of typing the same location name on every site.

  • Open the admin menu and select the Location Name page
  • Use the plus icon to create a new location

  • Select one of your Site Types or use the plus icon to create a new entry
  • Add the relevant locations to the location name field.
  • You will need to repeat these steps if you need the locations configured on another site type.
