To add or edit a listing page (we'll use the profile content type in our example)

Listing pages are used to pull together pages of related or similar content in one place for easy viewing. The kinds of pages that can be pulled into a Listing page include:

advancement donations
advancement stories
financial aid and awards
news
profiles
testimonials
transfer agreements
tuition and fees

A listing page is used to gather related pages together, so the pages to be gathered must already exist. In this example, we'll accept that there are profile pages already created for Katharine, Amy, Andrea and Stephanie. They look like this:

But we don't want viewers to have to search for these profiles, which - in this example - are related because all four of these staff are in the same department so, we'll create a listing page that pulls them together for easy reference, like so:

Keeping in mind that there is a profile page for each of Katharine, Amy, Andrea and Stephanie, here's how you would create (or edit) a listing page once you are in data entry mode:

Your screens will look like the screenshots below. The data entered into each field in the shots are examples. The information you enter may differ, depending on your needs.

In the screenshot above, you can see that we've added a Feature profiles component to our page. If we click the Edit button to the right, we'll see more detail about this component:

We have chosen which profiles to display on this page by using the search feature to find the person's profile page. Click the Add another item button to open a new field and add another profile. Continue until you've included all the profiles you want on this page, then continue down the screen to provide additional information.

Moving back to the upper right of the data entry screen:

Moving to the lower left of the data entry screen: Once you've finished entering all the relevant information, you can indicate your publishing preferences before saving.

Please review our publishing options information page for more information about the publishing and saving step options.

Once your page is published, you'll see the final result, which is a single page showing all the profiles you chose to highlight, like this:

That's it. You're finished creating a basic listing page. But read on for some extra information about listing pages.

A listing page that gathers feature profiles might be used by many departments to showcase members of a group, as in the Advancement example above.

Special listing pages

However, there are some listings pages that are created once and are managed by a particular department. In some cases, the number of existing pages that must be pulled together is quite high that selecting them as we did with the Advancement pages would be quite time-consuming. For these, there are special "listing types" to make that job easier. Here are some examples:

The faculty directory (bonus: here's how the new faculty directory listing page compares to the faculty directory listing on the old site:)

Faculty Directory on the old site	Faculty Directory in the new site
plain no filtering capability you can't tell who people are	clean pops of colour faces of people are visible filterable by name, program area, type of faculty sortable

Special content with their own "listing type":

advancement donations
advancement stories
financial aid and awards
news
testimonials
transfer agreements
tuition and fees
