• how to make a webclippy document

  last modified October 18, 2007 by ianb

This is a tutorial for how you make a WebClippy document.  It will take you through the steps.  If you aren't seeing this in a frame, click here.

To go through the tutorial, you must manual advance through the steps.  Click the icon to advance.  At any time you can click to go back and review slides.


 Welcome to the next slide!  The page this comes from is just a simple page on the wiki.  Open it in a new window to see what the original page looks like.


If you opened that link, you saw that it was just a single page, with each of these slides separated by a horizontal rule.  In HTML this is the <hr> element.

You can't currently insert that in Open Plans; you'll have to actually go into the source and put "<hr>" in between slides.  Hopefully something we'll fix!


So to create a new slideshow, you'll have to create a new page on the site.  Find the project you are involved with and create a new page with at least slides (so be sure to put in an <hr>).


The only thing left is to link it up.  Go to this form and enter the URL of your help, and the starting document where the user should go.  Then the page will show you the new link.  You may want to enter "oc-wiki-content" for help_id.


That's it!
