This document will guide you through the process of creating a Resource Collection.
A Resource Collection allows you to include links to other collections as assets within a main collection. This means that you can add multiple collections inside a main collection, which provides a more efficient way of organizing and presenting information to users in your portal.
In order to create a Resource Collection, please follow these steps:
1. On your Portal Setup, go to Create > Resource Collections > + New Resource Collection.
2. Create a name for the Resource Collection. The Path will be automatically added after the name; if you wish, you can change the path. The other fields are optional.
Click on Save.
The main Resource Collection will be created and ready to add assets.
Repeat the same steps to create a Secondary Resource Collection.
On the main Resource Collections page (Create > Resource Collections) copy the Secondary Resource Collection Path.
3. Go back to your Portal main page and click on Documents.
Create a new folder where the Secondary Resource Collection’s bookmarks will be stored.
In the Documents module, a Bookmark is a type of item that allows you to create a hyperlink to either an internal or external webpage. Once created, the Bookmark will be displayed as a file and can be used as an asset in the Resource Collections module.
To create the folder, click on New Folder.
Add a folder name and click on Save.
4. On the recently created folder, click on New > New Bookmark.
Add a name and the path to the secondary Resource Collection previously created.
Click on Save.
5. Go back to the Main Resource Collection. Click on Edit > Add Asset > Add Document.
On Document, click on the Search button.
Search for the recently created Bookmark in the Documents module. Select the bookmark.
Click on Next.
Upload a thumbnail that will be shown on the secondary Resource Collection cover. Click on Save.
You will now have a main Resource Collection where you can add multiple secondary Resource Collections. You can add multiple assets to each of these secondary Resource Collections.
