These documentation pages are no longer maintained. Please visit the new documentation site.
In order to be able to test the "Links" page properly, we'll need to add some content. Use the administration interface to create a folder called "Links" (within the root of the content node tree). Feel free to add the following description for this folder:
The links folder contains all the links that we wish to share with the rest of the world. Use the tree-menu on the left hand side to navigate the links collection. Each and every link belongs to at least one category. The categories are folders. Click on a folder to expand/view it's contents.
Don't forget to assign the "Links" folder to the correct/corresponding section (the "Links section"). As before, the section will be used in conjunction with the template override. Now, create a couple of sub-folders within the "Links" folder. The sub-folders will act as categories. Feel free to create the following sub-folders:
|
Name: |
Description: |
|
Chess sites |
This folder contains links to a couple of very popular chess sites on the internet. |
|
Educational sites |
This folder contains links to popular academic institutions. Stay in school; don't do drugs! |
|
Local sites |
This folder contains links to some local sites. Warning! Local sites tend to be boring and lame. |
|
News sites |
This folder contains links to news sites. Don't believe everything you read. Politicians just love to brainwash the masses. |
Each link will be put inside one of the sub-folders. Use the built-in "Link" content class to create a couple of nodes containing link objects. Make sure that you type something into the "Title" and the "URL" fields (in this particular case, the rest of the fields can be safely ignored). Feel free to use the following example data:
