How to Create Content

Welcome! Today, we'll quickly show you how to Create Content in the Oasis Travel Platform.

To create a seamless and informative itinerary, it's essential to understand the difference between Services and Content and know when to use each.

Service:  Are activities or provisions on the itinerary, such as transportation, transfers, and tours, which can be group or private. They are located in the Day field, can be added chronologically, and updated with start/end times. Services can include images and be marked as optional. Click to Learn how to Add a Service.

Content:  Describes destinations (country, city, region) used in Trip Introductions or daily descriptions. It includes images, and types such as city, country, and free day. Content can describe free days and includes inclusions/exclusions details.

Use Services to outline specific activities and logistics for each day of the trip, ensuring a structured and detailed plan. Use Content to provide rich descriptions and contextual information about the destinations, enhancing the overall narrative of the itinerary.

1. You've got two paths to creating content: 

• Firstly, on the left-hand side under Content, simply hit the Create button. 
  
  

• Alternatively, clicking the Quick Add button at the top of the screen reveals a quick-add content shade, where you can select Create Content.

2. Next, add a Name for the new piece of content and select a Type for the service.
