Studio User Manual / Version 2406.1
Table Of Contents
Figure 2.6, “Simplified site structure” shows an example of a simple site where each box stands
for a content item and arrows mean that a content item links to another item. The text in the
boxes contains the name of the property which connects it to the other content item. For
simplicity, only a few content types are shown, content is used very sparingly and the linked
contents of the (Sub) Page
are omitted. They are similar to that of the
Page
, except for the Site Indicator
.
So, the Page content is linked by the Site Indicator
making it the main page of the
site. The page links to a Javascript
and CSS
content which allows you,
or a designer, to customize the layout of the page without the help of your IT department. The
page also links to an Action
which adds a search field to the header of the page.
To create a simple hierarchy, the page links to a sub page which normally appears as a subpage
in the navigation of the main page (see Figure 2.7, “Navigation children and navigation on page”) To add real content, the
page references a Collection
from a placement.
The Collection
groups content together. It links to a Layout Variant
which determines the layout of the collection, a slide show or a carousel for example. Finally,
the Collection
contains several links to Teaser
and Product
Teaser
types which contain some real content but may also link to an Article
or in case of the Product Teaser
to a target in the eCommerce system.
There are many more content types involved to create a comprehensive website. See Section 9.1, “Content Types” for an overview.
