Specific Content question
|
Can't Post
|
|
Working on a new AM layout where I need to have specific category content for a large number of categories (Each Different). This content would be in the form of something like a category introduction etc with articles from AM showing below the introduction area.
I know I can code this into the templates using the IF tags but I am wondering if this is the most resource friendly way of doing this as I am concerned with the amount of code that would end up in the category template.
Thanks
Tim

Hi Tim,
The best way to do something like this is probably to create a category field for this content. That way, all you have to do is add that placeholder to your categoryIndex.html template and the appropriate content will be brought in for each category. You would enter in the content on the category modification page when logged into Article Manager. Does this make sense?
Let us know if you have any other questions about this!
