A new way to create structure in web content
To make it easier for a visitor to understand which subject a certain page belongs to and where on the website they are, we are introducing a new mandatory function on a page. Each page must be linked to a page above it in the structure.
You give a new page a place in the structure by selecting a so-called parent item. That page in turn also has a parent item. In this way, a family tree is formed all the way up to the start page of the website.
For a visitor, the family tree / structure is displayed as a series of links above the page title.This is called a path of breadcrumbs. This applies to all page types that currently have the "Included in" function with the exception of news and calendar events.
Parent item replaces included in
Parent item is a mandatory part of a page. When creating a new page or the next time you save an existing page, you need to specify the parent item for that page.
If your page has one or more included in-links today, you probably do not need to do anything. The top included in link is automatically fetched as the page's parent item.
Add links within the website
You can add links in one or more boxes with fixed headings. You can use these for the other included in-links you had (if you had more than one) or for other related content. These links get the same look no matter where they are used and the fixed headings make visitors recognize where they are and what to do.
Future updates
The largest part of this new structure will be publsihed on thursday evening (20th of May) and you are able to work with it on friday. When we move the included in links to a breadcrumb path to the top of the page, the left column on a page ends up empty on most pages. Because of this we need to redo the layout of our pages. This change will come in a later update. Keep an eye out for more information on this on Web Publishing.
