Organization (Website)

Categories Retired

It's inevitable that a category we created might not work as well as we thought. But deleting the category without a trace may have consequences. So we'll document retired categories here, just in case.

Organizing Content from the Holiday Party

So I created content – a new page about the 7th floor holiday party. I want this to live under social (which it does), but now I think the pics should live under this.

Organizing Our Website

How should we organize our website? Quite simply, in a way that maximizes the ease users of our website (both community members and the public) have in accomplishing the goals of our community.

Categories in Drupal

Note: This page is not for the discussion of what categories we'd like our webpage to have. For that, see "Organizing Our Website". This page discusses implementation issues.

Categories are assigned to resources (such as webpages) in order to organize our site. This functionality is provided by Drupal's Taxonomy module.

Categories can then be assigned properties, such as access permissions or site navigation hints, that will then be inherited by the resource they're assinged to. In this way, the behaviour of resources on our site can changed anytime by simply assigning the resource to any number of categories.

Note: See the Categories page for a live list of categories that currently make up our site.
