Adding a New Production or Team
This is still very much a work in progress.
Productions and Teams are different from other namespaces like Thoughts or People, in that each entity receives its own child namespace rather than just a single page. This allows each production or team plenty of space to add their own content and media.
Create the new namespace link
To add a new production or team, you will go to the Productions or Teams main (start) page and create a link to a new namespace rather than to a page.
- Go to the main (start) page and add the name of the new production or team
- Select the the name with your mouse
- In the Link Configuration popup window, do the following:
- If the name is really long, create a shorter version for the Link target field
- shorten
The Lighting Thief - A Percy Jackson MusicalintoThe Lighting Thief - shorten
William Shakespeare's Comedy of ErrorstoComedy of Errors
- Add
.:(period colon) to the front of the Link target and:(colon) to the end to identify that it's a child namespace- so you'd end up with
.:The Lighting Thief:for the Link target
- Click
OKon the Link Configuration popup window
- And
Savethe page
At this point, you should have a link to the new production or team, but in red as it has not yet been created.
Grab a copy of the template
Copy the Productions or Teams template. details TBD
This will be used as the starting point for the new start page.
Create the new namespace
After you've created the link (now glowing red), click on it.
You will be presented with a page saying: This topic does not exist yet.
Click on Create this page
in the right hand buttons. This will open up an edit page where you can create new namespace's start page.
Paste in the template that you just copied, and start making changes.
You are now on your way. Have fun!
