Documentation Wiki Spaces Overview

...

• The left sidebar can be edited only by a Wiki Space Administrator
• Visit "Browse -> Space Admin"
• Click on "Themes" (Under "Look and Feel" section)
• Click on "Configure Theme" (for the current Documentation Theme)

• In the "Navigation" field, you want to place the following Wiki Markup (which will cause the _DocLeftSidebar wiki page to appear as the sidebar):

  Code Block
  {include:DSDOC:_DocLeftSidebar}

• Click "Save"

• Now, we'll likely want to ensure this version of DSpace is listed in the Sidebar. To do that, just visit the _DocLeftSidebar page, edit it, and add a line similar to the following:

  Code Block

  {span:class=DSDOC3x}[DSpace 3.x (Unreleased)|DSDOC3x:]{span}

  • Create a new "div" macro (creates a new HTML <div> tag for us)

  • Set Class as "DSDOC4x" (for DSDOC4x space)

  • Set Style as "padding-left: 10px" (to align with all others in the list

  • As the text (inside the "div"): "DSpace 4.x (Unreleased)" (and link it to the DSDOC4x Homepage)

  • NOTE: Obviously you can copy from another "div" macro if these settings change.NOTICE THE "{span}" wiki tag listed there. That is applying a custom CSS style we named "DSDOC3x". We will tweak that style momentarily.
• Finally, let's tweak the stylesheet of the Space, so that its listing in the sidebar appears bolded.
  • Go back to the "Browse -> Space Admin"
  • Click on "Stylesheet" (Under "Look and Feel" section)

  • Click "Edit" and add a style similar to the following (notice that this "

    span

    div" style matches the "

    space:class

    div" macro defined above):

    Code Block
    /** Bold sidebar link to this Space **/ spandiv.DSDOC3xDSDOC4x { font-weight:bold; }

  • Click Save
