Creating featured collections

This is the same process as Creating a public collection but with an extra step to turn it into a featured collection (see step 4).

  1. Create or Select a private collection
  2. Edit the collection
  3. Beside 'Access' choose 'Public' from the dropdown menu
  4. Select the featured collection category that the collection belongs to. If there is no appropriate category, navigate to the featured collections page (pages/collections_featured.php) and click on the "Add" tile (the tile with a plus on it).
  5. Click Save

Remove a featured collection by clearing / emptying the value in step 4

If ResourceSpace is configured with simple view mode, featured collections can be created by clicking on the new "Add" tile.

Once you have created your featured collection, you are able to either upload directly into it or create another featured collection within it, all from the featured collections page.

From version 11, the context menu (indicated by the ellipsis icon) will allow the user to carry out featured collection (category) related actions (select, edit, upload or delete). Please note that the actions are access control dependent or featured collection state (e.g. you can't delete a category if it contains other featured collections/categories).

The context menu is also available on the rendered featured collections, when hovered. The available actions (access control and state dependent) are:
