References

91 Aufrufe Markdown

Manage every reference published on your website from one list: search a record, open it for editing or remove it for good.

Reaching the Screen

Open Site Management › References in the left menu: {admin}/manage-website/references

Any of the three site management privileges opens the list. Controls that change a record need the matching privilege. Edit and Apply to Selected stay visible without it, but the action does not go through.

What Is on the Screen

The page is one list with a control strip above it. There is no form here. A reference is written on its own page; this screen finds, opens and removes records.

The control strip

Apply to Selected runs one action on every ticked row, and Delete is its only entry. Create Reference opens an empty reference form. Categories takes you to the categories that group references.

On a narrow screen the whole strip folds behind the Show Options button at the top of the page.

The table brings its own header: a search box and a page size selector. Staff allowed to export tables also get a download control, a downward arrow icon offering CSV, JSON and XML. The line under the table counts the listed records. Page links appear next to it when the records no longer fit on one page.

The reference list

The newest record sits at the top. No column here can be sorted, so use the search box to reach a specific reference.

ColumnWhat it showsNotes
SelectionPuts the row into a bulk deletion.Delete privilege only; the checkbox in the header takes the whole page.

Fields

SelectionOptional. Ticks the row for a bulk deletion; the header checkbox takes every row on the page.
Apply to SelectedOptional, empty by default. Choosing Delete opens a confirmation window for the ticked rows, then the list clears itself.
SearchOptional, empty by default. Narrows the list to references matching what you type. The search covers the whole row, not the title alone: the address, the category and the date match too.
Page sizeHow many rows one page holds. Ten by default.

Tasks

Adding a reference

  1. Click Create Reference in the control strip, on a narrow screen after clicking Show Options.
  2. Fill in the reference form and save it.
  3. You return to this list with the new record at the top. It goes live on the website unless you hid it on the form.

Opening a reference for editing

  1. Find the row, using the search box when the list is long.
  2. Click the vertical three dot icon at the end of the row and choose Edit.
  3. The form opens with the current content of the reference. Saving keeps you on the form and confirms the change.

Checking a reference on the website

  1. Click the address in the URL column.
  2. The public page opens in a new browser tab, so this list stays where it was.

Deleting a reference

  1. For one record, click the vertical three dot icon at the end of the row and choose Delete. For several, tick their checkboxes and choose Delete under Apply to Selected.
  2. Read the confirmation window. It names the reference for a single row and the count for a selection. Two or more rows also ask for your own panel password.
  3. Confirm with the red button at the bottom: Delete for one row, Delete Selected for a selection.
  4. The rows leave the list without a page reload, and the reference disappears from the website.

Things to Watch

Deleting takes the whole record

The reference goes with all of its translations. The listing, mockup and background images uploaded for it are erased from the server as well. Nothing on this screen brings them back. Hide a reference you may need again instead of deleting it.

Visibility is not in the list

You set it on the reference form, and there is no column for it here. A hidden reference looks exactly like a published one. Open the record when you need to know.

The list follows your panel language

Titles, addresses and category names come from the language you use in the panel. A category with no name in that language leaves the Category cell empty, even though the reference is still tied to it. A reference with no translation in that language still appears, with its title and address from another language.

Required Privileges

Opening the list needs any site management privilege. Create Reference, the Edit entry and the Categories screen need MANAGE_WEBSITE_OPERATION. The selection column and every Delete need MANAGE_WEBSITE_DELETE. Downloading the list needs the table export privilege.
