Creating club listing pages

Use this procedure to create a Club Listing page once you have already completed the steps outlined below:

Before you begin:

  1. Decide on the name for the Club Listing - whether this is named after your community or other organization. For example, "Berkshire Forest Clubs".

  2. Create a Digital Assets Folder where clubs will store their photos, logos and documents.

  3. Create a group in the Group Manager for the Club Listing page administrator and assign the administrator of the main club listing page to the group.

  4. Create a login page that the club listing users will use when logging into club listings.

  5. Create a Syndicated Calendar page for the club listing page. You may want to move this calendar page to be a child of the club listing page once all the pages are created or make sure there are links from your club listing page to the calendar page.

  6. Create a Forum page. You may want to move this forum page to be a child of the club listing page once all the pages are created or make sure there are links from your club listing page to the forum page.

Creating the club listing page:

  1. You must create your Syndicate Calendar and Forum pages, before you can create and save the Club Listing page.

  2. Navigate to the page that will be the parent of the new page. See Parent and child pages if you are unsure what this means.

  3. Mouse over the +Childpage button and select Club Listing from the list of page types. If you do not see the +Childpage button you may have insufficient user rights to add pages: speak to your system administrator.

  4. Complete the Page Summary and the General Properties sections of the page.

  5. In the Introduction HTML editor window, describe your club listing page and how to use it.

  6. Complete the Listing Properties section.

  7. In the Connections section, attach the other pages associated with your Club Listing page. These are the Syndicated Calendar and Forum pages you created before you started the Club Listing page.

  8. You will have to Save the page now before you can enter the club types.

  9. Once you have decide what types of clubs your listing page will accommodate, use the Club Types section to create each club type and define some of the rules that will be applied when club creators are creating them.

  10. Define the Categories that will be use by club creators for describing their club, its members and its activities. Categories have a Category name and then a list of all the possible values that a club could select for the category. For example you might have a category called Interests and the options would list all of the different types of interests clubs might have (chess, golf, investing, art, photography, soccer, etc.).

  11. Complete the News Update Emails section to set the time that emails are sent to members.

  12. Go to the Emails tab and take a look at the various emails associated with this page type. You can edit the emails if you wish.

  13. The Club Listing Records section is used later on when there are events and invitations you wish to delete from the club's records.

  14. Save the page and submit for publication.

  15. Review Using the club listing page for information on how to use the many features you have configured on this page.
