I am new to Umbraco. I am trying to follow the instruction under Our Umbraco - Documentation to create my first document type, template, and content node.
I followed all the instructions only without entering the codes inside the template (because I don't know where is the "index.html from Initializr template"). However, after all the steps have done, there is no "Homepage" for me to create in content. Is it because I did not enter those codes in the template? Can anyone provide me the codes? (it does not have to be the same codes as the tutorial as long as it works)
Thank you all so much!
Best regards,
Andy
Hi all,
I just checked the instruction again, and I did check "Yes - allow content of this type in the root" under Permissions.
However, when I installed Umbraco, there is a sample template called Landing Page, and I noticed that it does not check the "Yes - allow content of this type in the root" box, and it does show under Content Create. Therefore, I tried both ways to checked and unchecked the box, but both aren't working. So I guess it doesn't matter to check the box, is that correct?
You have to check "Yes - allow content of this type in the root" under the Permissions of the new document type (Homepage in this case), and then you have to go to "Home" document type, under the Permissions, you have to add "Homepage" as child.

Thanks!!
I just found out the solution.

Hi Andy,
The Initializr's index.html code should be in the package that can be found here.
In order to start with a very simple example (let's say a 1-minute Hello World version; just to see it working), you can do the following...
1 minute example - Umbraco Hello World
=> In section Templates: Create a new template: HelloWorld
Use as template code:
Save the template
=> In section Document Types: Create Document Type without a template with the name: HelloWorld
Click on Permissions and check: Yes - allow content of this type in the root
Click on Templates, and Choose default template: HelloWorld
Save the Document Type
=> In section Content, Create an Item under Content, you should be able to select: HelloWorld
Name it: HelloWorld
Select a template (in case it did not do that by default): HelloWorld
Save and Publish
=> If all went fine, you should be able to view the HelloWorld page.
