00:00:03,940 --> 00:00:05,300
[Autogenerated] Hi. In this lesson, I'm

2
00:00:05,300 --> 00:00:06,720
going to show you how to create

3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:10,330
communication sites in SharePoint. Now,

4
00:00:10,330 --> 00:00:12,270
there are three site templates for

5
00:00:12,270 --> 00:00:15,560
communication sites. We have the topic

6
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,230
communication site, the showcase

7
00:00:18,230 --> 00:00:20,830
communication site. And there is a blank

8
00:00:20,830 --> 00:00:23,440
template so that you can design your own

9
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:25,810
when we want to create a SharePoint site.

10
00:00:25,810 --> 00:00:27,530
UI, come over here to the SharePoint home

11
00:00:27,530 --> 00:00:29,920
page and you see up here in the upper left

12
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,090
corner. Ah, big button that says, Create

13
00:00:32,090 --> 00:00:36,180
site. If we click there, IT asks us, What

14
00:00:36,180 --> 00:00:38,070
kind of site do we want to create a team

15
00:00:38,070 --> 00:00:41,460
site or communication site? Well, that's

16
00:00:41,460 --> 00:00:42,700
what we're looking for. So we're going to

17
00:00:42,700 --> 00:00:45,470
click on communication site and you see

18
00:00:45,470 --> 00:00:47,890
you have the design, but these air really

19
00:00:47,890 --> 00:00:49,860
templates choose a design. The first one

20
00:00:49,860 --> 00:00:52,160
is the topic site, and you see a little

21
00:00:52,160 --> 00:00:56,020
preview off what that will look like. We

22
00:00:56,020 --> 00:00:58,850
also have the showcase site, and we have a

23
00:00:58,850 --> 00:01:00,640
little preview of what that's going to

24
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,590
look like. And, of course, the blank

25
00:01:03,590 --> 00:01:06,700
template, which is blank, and you can do

26
00:01:06,700 --> 00:01:08,570
whatever you want with it. We are

27
00:01:08,570 --> 00:01:10,470
eventually gonna create all three, but

28
00:01:10,470 --> 00:01:12,400
let's start with the topic site. I'm going

29
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,620
to give this a name and this is going to

30
00:01:14,620 --> 00:01:20,550
be new employees. You see, It generates

31
00:01:20,550 --> 00:01:22,780
the site address here, and it is

32
00:01:22,780 --> 00:01:24,830
available. If there was a conflicting

33
00:01:24,830 --> 00:01:26,580
address, it would tell you you can't use

34
00:01:26,580 --> 00:01:28,640
that. It would prompt you to edit it. Now

35
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,980
you could edit it anyway, by clicking here

36
00:01:31,980 --> 00:01:37,620
on the change site address, you would have

37
00:01:37,620 --> 00:01:39,380
to go ahead and put in whatever you want.

38
00:01:39,380 --> 00:01:42,490
But I'm fine with new employees. You can

39
00:01:42,490 --> 00:01:55,100
give it a site description we put in our

40
00:01:55,100 --> 00:01:57,110
site description we-can change the

41
00:01:57,110 --> 00:01:59,660
language if we want. We have lots of

42
00:01:59,660 --> 00:02:01,070
options there. I'm going to leave it

43
00:02:01,070 --> 00:02:06,040
English, and we're gonna click on finish,

44
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,200
and it is creating the site now. And there

45
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,440
it is. There is the new topic

46
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,550
communication site with all of the

47
00:02:14,550 --> 00:02:18,840
Microsoft bits here that we would need to

48
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,670
change to make it our own. Now, each one

49
00:02:21,670 --> 00:02:25,880
of these images. These squares here are a

50
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:30,150
link, and right now they are links to

51
00:02:30,150 --> 00:02:32,830
Microsoft, and it gives you support

52
00:02:32,830 --> 00:02:36,440
information about editing your page. Now

53
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,070
we will take a look at editing

54
00:02:38,070 --> 00:02:40,800
communication sites at another lesson in

55
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,550
this course. Now let's go ahead. Let's go

56
00:02:43,550 --> 00:02:49,140
back to SharePoint and let's create

57
00:02:49,140 --> 00:02:51,840
another communication site this time will

58
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,440
choose showcase. And again, it works the

59
00:02:54,440 --> 00:03:01,340
same way. I'm gonna call this one training

60
00:03:01,340 --> 00:03:12,690
mhm UI. Enter in our description and leave

61
00:03:12,690 --> 00:03:14,500
our language at English and with Click

62
00:03:14,500 --> 00:03:21,200
Finish and there is our communication

63
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:26,580
site. All right, one more. Let's take a

64
00:03:26,580 --> 00:03:28,380
look at that blank template. We're gonna

65
00:03:28,380 --> 00:03:32,140
create site again. Communication site.

66
00:03:32,140 --> 00:03:35,270
This time we will choose Blank. And I'm

67
00:03:35,270 --> 00:03:43,890
simply going to call this blank site. My

68
00:03:43,890 --> 00:03:49,260
description will be no description finish.

69
00:03:49,260 --> 00:03:51,310
And there is my blank communication site,

70
00:03:51,310 --> 00:03:53,810
and it truly is blank. There's nothing

71
00:03:53,810 --> 00:03:56,550
here. You would edit this and add in your

72
00:03:56,550 --> 00:04:01,170
own web parts as you see fit. And that is

73
00:04:01,170 --> 00:04:04,400
how you create communication sites in

74
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,740
SharePoint. That's it for this lesson.

75
00:04:06,740 --> 00:04:16,000
Thanks for listening. And I'll see you next time
