Content silos are a great website structure. The only thing that comes close to it is a static/flat structure. - JerryV Sun, 27 Sep 2009 09:06:32 +0100 http://www.howtojoomla.net/200609139/how-tos/content-management/organizing-your-content#comment-1743 I am using v 1.0.

What I am wondering is, how does one assign sections and categories to different menu options? For example, I have a section called "recipes" and some sub categories. I want to be able to click on my top meny "recipe" tag and have it take me to all those articles which I assign. Thanks, Kyle - Kyle Sun, 15 Mar 2009 14:34:27 +0100 http://www.howtojoomla.net/200609139/how-tos/content-management/organizing-your-content#comment-1382 Hi Kriskaitanid, If you are using Joomla 1.5, you should just be able to type "left" or "right" in the box where you select module position in the module manager. In Joomla 1.0, you will have to go to Site->Templates->Module Positions and add the module position you want. Good luck! - Cory Tue, 10 Mar 2009 09:09:55 +0100 http://www.howtojoomla.net/200609139/how-tos/content-management/organizing-your-content#comment-1381 Hi, nice tutorial for starters! As i am one too, i have a question: i downloaded a template which has left, right, user3, user4, debbug, positions for modules BUT i cannot select them (they do not even appear) when i create a poll module. I want it to the right but it has only left available. Please help - Kriskaitanid Tue, 10 Mar 2009 02:32:58 +0100 http://www.howtojoomla.net/200609139/how-tos/content-management/organizing-your-content#comment-1356 Dear Cory: Great site! It was very helpful to me. I'm trying to convert an existing automotive site to Joomla and would love your guidance. Here is the scheme I have come up with: Section 1: Dealership Info About Us Office Hours Contact Us / Directions Press Releases Newsletter Career Opportunities Testimonials Section 2: Meet Our Team Management Team Business Center Service Team Section 3: New Vehicles Toyota Nissan Section: Used Vehicles Section: Parts and Accessories Toyota Vigo Accessories Mitsubishi L200 Accessories Nissan Navara Accessories Toyota Fortuner Accessories Section: Specials Specials this week Toyota Special Section: Automotive Info Auto Articles Glossary Section: Country Info Now I'm creating Section in Section and categories in Categories. Is it possible to display two pages in both new and used vehicle section. For instance the info on new Toyota Hilux is the same as used Toyota Hilux so can I display the same article under two section. I'm still confused about menu. Do I create a new menu for each Section item to display these pages. How do I create a page to display certain category and certain sections. I have over 500 static pages and want to convert them over. Some sections will be overlapping so I'm a little confused.

I am moving an old site and the url structure is such that it has sections and pages inside it but no category. Is there a way out ? let me explain further. If say glossary section is there and has pages 1, 2 ,3 ,4 the url are site.com/glossary/1.html ... 2.html ... now i search all over the web but it seem that it is not possible. I HAVE to have category and section together or simply uncategorized static pages. Even in menu type if we select section blog or section article, it does not take content that way. Your help would be appreciated. Thank in advance. - dax Fri, 16 Jan 2009 14:04:32 +0100 http://www.howtojoomla.net/200609139/how-tos/content-management/organizing-your-content#comment-1267 Hi James... yes, this can probably be done, but it will require a third-party component to modify the access control level settings. You can find several at http://extensions.joomla.org. - Cory Webb Tue, 13 Jan 2009 16:44:10 +0100 http://www.howtojoomla.net/200609139/how-tos/content-management/organizing-your-content#comment-1266 We use Joomla to manage our employee intranet site in the office. Is there a way to allow individuals access to only one content item? For example, if I wanted to allow other employees authoring capabilities but limit those to one content page of their own. Can this be done?

Unfortunately, that cannot be done with Joomla out of the box. You would have to use a 3rd party application to get nested categories like that. - Cory Webb Wed, 12 Nov 2008 14:48:25 +0100 http://www.howtojoomla.net/200609139/how-tos/content-management/organizing-your-content#comment-1149 Site in Construction...
