Chapters<\/strong> are pages or building blocks which contain the content in your book. Parts<\/strong>, on the other hand, are overarching sections which hold those chapters. A book is made up of chapters which are sequentially ordered in parts.<\/div>\r\nWhen you\u00a0go into the \u201cText\u201d panel on the left-hand side of the screen, you can see that there are different options to add a part, add a new chapter, add new front matter, and add new back matter. Start by adding a part by clicking on the \u201cAdd Part\u201d button. Give this part a name, say, \u2018Part 1\u2019, and then save that part. Now, when you\u00a0go back to the \u201cDashboard\u201d, you\u2019ll see that the new part that you\u00a0just created, Part 1, is directly under the main body section.\r\n\r\nNext,\u00a0add a new chapter. To do this, go back to the \u201cText\u201d panel and we\u2019ll click on \u201cAdd New Chapter\u201d.\r\n\r\nNow take note of the Part panel on the right hand side of your screen \u2013 you can use this to select where your new chapter will be placed \u2013 so we can choose to place it in either Main Body or in Part 1. Note that you can\u2019t place this chapter in the front matter or the back matter \u2013 so if you want to create front matter or back matter, you need to explicitly use the \u201cAdd New Front Matter\u201d or the \u201cAdd New Back Matter\u201d buttons in the Text panel on the left hand side of the screen. Put Chapter 1\u00a0inside Part 1. And then publish this chapter.\r\n\r\nWhen you\u00a0go back into the \u201cDashboard\u201d, you\u00a0will see that Chapter 1\u00a0has been published into Part 1, just like we wanted.\r\n\r\nYou may type\u00a0text into your new chapter just as you would with your usual word-processing software.\r\n
