The menu at the top of all pages is for general items that might be required at any point in a user’s visit to the site. A brief description of what each option is intended to do is given below.
Home
The home page is what is known as a panel page, it contains a number of panes with different types of content:
- Welcome – a dynamic pane, created by the website. You’d need advanced training to change the wording on this section, so make sure you are happy with the wording before signing off the site! The links to the next meeting and the minutes of the last meeting will change automatically to reflect the next meeting and the most recently available minutes.
- Local image – This is set to display a random image from the “featured” picture gallery. Use IMAGES –> LIST GALLERIES to find the “featured” gallery to remove images. To add images to the “featured” gallery, either create a new image or edit an existing image and select “Featured” as one of the image galleries in which you want it to appear. The image is cropped to fit the space, so if you are adding a feature image, try and keep it close to square. Clicking on the image will show the original with its original shape.
- News – You can’t edit this pane, it automatically displays links to upcoming news. The first item, with more detail, is a “Top news story”. This is followed by up to 3 other items (the three latest items displayed in reverse chronological order) whose title only is displayed. If there are more news items, then a “More” link will show. Click on any of the news items to read or edit them.
- Events - You cannot edit this pane, it automatically displays links to events. The first item, with more detail, is a “Top event”. This is followed by up to 3 other items (the three latest items displayed in reverse chronological order) whose title is displayed. If there are more events items, then a “More” link will show. Click on any of the events items to read or edit them.
- We want your views – this is a small info-page and you can change the words, picture or questionnaire link by clicking moving your mouse into the pane and then clicking on the wee “edit node” option that pops up
- Local Information - this is a small info-page and you can change the words, picture or link by moving your mouse into the pane and then clicking on the wee “edit node” option that pops up
- Image Gallery – displays a random selection of pictures from some of the image galleries. A “more” link takes you to a page where you can search through all image galleries. You can’t really change this pane yourselves.
