Introduction
Labels List is a very basic macro with one specific use. It is particularly useful where you have a large space with a lot of content, including multiple different items on a page, as it enables you to create a dynamic A-Z or alphabetised index to help visitors find what they want.
Application(s)
Labels List has one function:
- makes an alphabetised list of the labels used in a space
How to add Labels List
Firstly...
- add labels to the pages of your wiki (click on the icon at the right hand side of the foot of the page)
- type in a label and click Add
- repeat this process until you have added all the label for the page
- repeat the process for attachments if you wish
Then simply...
- Place you cursor where you want the Labels List macro to appear
- Click on Insert (in the tool bar above) then Other Macros from the drop-down menu
- In the pop-up window, type label list into the search box
- Set the variables up as you wish (you can, for instance, exclude some labels from appearing in the list)
- Click Save
How to use Labels List
Look at how labels could be added to the attachments in your space and/or the pages themselves to enable visitors to find the materials they need. The addition of labels (and the availability of a labels list) is useful where:
- you have a large number of pages
- there are multiple items on a single page (which are not all reflected in the page title)
- some items in your space can be known by multiple names
Example
- FED Staff Area: Index (A-Z)
