Robyn, Project Manager at Matogen Digital
- Creating a new page or form, locating it properly in the hierarchy, and setting its breadcrumbs or parent page, etc.
- For almost half of my life (really) I've been using HTML tags to do small formatting in documents. Tracey is in this same boat, I believe. We need to know how to do these things within this site. Pointing us at a 1-pager summary of tags might be all we need.

& General overview to show best practice
Ian Parsons, Head Chef at Matogen Digital

  • Spam blocker

For the next session:
  1. CTA's
  2. Tab content - adding various types of content to tabs
  3. Page headers with Views
  4. Forms
  5. Ian Parsons, Head Chef at Matogen Digital Ian  can you also take them through Software? I don't have much info about what's happening there, I'm not sure if it's necessary either, but I thought it might be worth looking at.
