Create folders
 
The "Structure" helps you to maintain an overview of the content on your platform. It allows you to create a hierarchical tree structure made up of folders and shortcuts.

For a better understanding of the relation between structure and services, read through chapter "Design of the System".


In order to create a folder, proceed as follows:

(1)
In "Structure" navigate to the folder where you want to create a new folder.

(2) Now, you have two possibilities:
(a) Click on "add" next to the folder title.

users - inhalte anlegen liste [en] - 271521.3

or

(b) Click on "add a folder" in the options area (left column).

users - box bearbeiten [en] - 210523.6

(3) Depending on which possibility you chose in step 2, proceed as follows:
(a) Choose "folder" from the list.

users - ordner anlegen liste [en] - 273248.1

or

(b) Continue with step 4.

(4)
Insert a title and a shortname. The shortname will be displayed in the pathline.

users - ordner anlegen [en] - 217480.6



(5) Choose one of two list layouts:

(a)
standard list
simple list with icon, title, metadata
(e.g. author, publication date, infoID,...)
users - epoz bild einfügen - 202283.2
(b)
thumbnail list
list with additional image preview for pictures and albums
users - epoz bild einfügen - 202283.2

If you do not see the drop-down menu, the standard layout will be used. Contact your platform administrator to activate this feature.


(6) Moreover, you can add a description for the folder if you want to. Descriptions are displayed above and/or below the list of content items as soon as you open the folder.

 

(7) If you click in the checkbox "Enable previous/next", links to the previous and next fact within the folder will be displayed at the bottom of each fact.


(8) Define what the language of the contents of the folder will be. The chosen language will be pre-selected by default whenever you create a fact in the folder. Afterwards, users can limit their search requests to a specific language.


(9)
Click on "next >>".


(10) Set permissions:

You will see an overview of all groups. There you can set the permissions. Usually your Platform administrator ("p-admin") has already provided you with a preselection which you can accept or adapt.

Work-permitted groups can add facts to the folder. However, they cannot modify the folder itself (i.e. change the folder title, edit the folder description).

(11) Click on "preview".

(12)
If you are satisfied with the preview, click on "publish".
