New Courses Designs- 2015


Demo is the available at Marjon > Home > Courses (New Design) Branch.

New 'Course Content 2015' content type

Course Content 2015 is the main content type which has the text/new content layout, holds the main html for the Course Content page. 



The Graduate and Student Profiles are taken from the Content type Student/Graduate Profile. T4 have created two sections. One for adding Graduate profiles and another section for Students Profiles. The the Course Content 2015 uses two Navigation objects - Keyword Seach for each of the different profiles sections. Uses the Course List as the keyword to match.

Icon Bar - T4 didn’t implement all three variations for this due to time constraint. Either Image or Percentage should be used for the first two icons. I’ve left the 3rd icon an optional field so only two can may be displayed.

Related Courses - This uses the “Related Course” and “Current Course” elements to pull in related courses, they both use the Courses list. The Courses Content 2015 has an alternative layout called text/course-related. 

Personal Development Profile (already existing content type), created a new page layout: course-content, used in the Course Leaders section (Nav Object: #411)


New 'Course Slide' content type


Used for adding images and embedding videos to the carousel on top of the course page


New 'Student/Graduate Profile' content type

Two content layouts for student and graduate profiles.


Sample Pages for reference - set up by T4 Developer






Navigation Objects
●     Course Sliders (#408) Related Content Advanced
●     Course - Alumni Profile (#410) Keyword search
●     Course - Student Profile (#409) Keyword search
●     Course Leaders Profiles (#411) Keyword Search

Lists
●     Courses CSS Departments 2015 - Used in Course Content to change the css theme.
●     Course Departments 2015
●     Courses List - Used in Related Courses in the Course Content content Type

Media Library
All “Course Details” Page media has been put into “Course Details” category in the media Library.

This includes CSS, JavaScript, Fonts, Images. 

Other bits (jQuery in footer)
●     Page Title element is added as an attribute to the main page h1 (h1). jQuery then is used to check if this attribute is populated and replaces the page “title” tag with this new value.
●     Page Themes - there are multiple options for changing the page theme in the css. This can be changed by selecting a different theme in the “Course Style Theme” Element. This element is added as an attribute to the main page h1 (h1). jQuery then checks this and adds the value to the body tag as a class.
Page Layouts
●     Course Details 2015

When development branch is moved, may need to update the navigation objects to point to the updated branch.
