Attached is an
annotated mockup for the Focus Area News and Announcements
page.
I'd like to see a
new content type for DITA announcements. The interaction model
is:
1. Authenticated
users enter new announcements, via a form. To enter a new announcement,
they click on the "Add New Announcement" link, which will be available on the
News and Announcements page, and possibly in other locations on the
site.
2. Authenticated
users can edit or delete announcements they have submitted. An
authenticated user will be able to see all the announcements they have
created, use the form to update an announcment, or select an announcement for
deletion.
3. People looking
for news/announcements visit a News/Announcements page, a dynamically generated
page that lists all relevant announcements.
A few additional
requirements:
1. The News and
Announcements page should show up to two months of announcements (the current
month and the previous month), in chronological order, grouped by
month.
2. Older events
should still be accessible via the News and Announcements Archive page.
This page should contain a link for each month; e.g. a link to December 2005,
November 2005, etc. These archived pages can be dynamically
generated, but they must be crawlable by a search engine, so
they should avoid parameters in the URL. Question: can the
News and Announcements Archive Page be dynamically generated to add a new
link each month?
Regards,
Jerry
