Separating tags in admin panel Can't Post
Hi again,
I know this is a long shot but I was wondering if there was any way to separate the tags in the admin panel? I have a client who is selling art with many works on each page. Each artwork has 7 different fields he can edit (title, price etc) so as the page grows it's turning into a bit of a muddle. Is there anyway to somehow add a separating bar or space between each artwork that will appear in the admin panel so he can find the different artworks more easily? I'm also open to any other suggestions that would be suitable.

Thanks!

Hi AgentBristow,

Thanks for posting.

While there isn't a way to have separating tags on the update page, what you can do is break up the page that the user is editing with some Server Side Includes (SSI). So that way, they will go to separate pages when they want to make an update.

Let me know if that sounds like something that would work for you and I can take you through the steps for setting that up.

Hi,
Sorry I know I've been awhile following this up. That sounds great. If you could let me know how to set that up it would be most appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi.

Good to hear from you again Smile.

What’s going to be happening here is you’ll be taking the chunks of code that display your 7 image sections and put them into separate files. You can name them something like: area1.html, area2.html, area3.html, etc. Don’t worry about making these complete html pages with the <html> and <body> tags. Just take the code that is displaying your images (I imagine that will be some table tags). You’ll also want to take the publishing tags to these files.

From there, you’ll be putting SSI’s onto your page where the code for the images used to be. If you were to put area1.html – areaX.html in webroot so they can be viewed like this:

www.yoursite.com/area1.html

Then the SSI will look like this:

<!--#include virtual=/area1.html -->

You’ll need to add one SSI for each of the pages you created.

The last step will be to add each of your areaX.html pages to Page Publisher so you can update them.

That’s about it. Does that all make sense? Let me know what you think or if you need more details Smile.
