Next Steps

There are 3 main sections:

 

  • Worship
  • Grow
  • Serve

 

There is a general principle to display content of each section. A section can have one or two rows. Each row can have one or 2 columns. Each column is linked to a section.

You can set background color, parallax effect or background image for each section

Worship Section

This section has 1 row. The row has 2 columns

 

  • The content of the left column is editable in the section "Connect - Worship - Left Column"
  • The content of the right column is editable in the section "Connect - Worship - Left Column"

LEFT COLUMN

We can use a custom monklets such as {{connect-get-links-monklet}} or  {{connect-get-buttons-monklet}} to get a list of links or buttons.

These monklets get contents from Link Lists

For example: {{connect-get-links-monklet|find="connect-worship-links"}} will find a link list whose slug name is "connect-worship-links"


RIGHT COLUMN

If you want to display a video in this area, please use the monklet {{video-embedded-monklet}} or {{video-monklet}}

- video-embedded-monklet: Find a sermon whose video is embedded (such as youtube or vimeo)

- video-monklet: Find a sermon whose video is uploaded to the CMS


MAIN SECTION

To display both left/right section in a single section, we use the Section called "Connect - Worship". It uses the monklet {{section-monklet}} to find a appropriate section

The description field is set to "worship" so the site will know this is a worship section

EX: to display the content from left/right column, we use the code

{{section-monklet|find="connect-worship-left-column"}} {{section-monklet|find="connect-worship-right-column"}}

Note: please make sure, there is no special characters between 2 monklets.

 

Worship Section

Grow Section

This section has 2 rows. Each row has 2 columns:

1. Row 1

  • The content of the left column is the section "Connect - Grow - Row 1 - Left Column"
  • The content of the right one is the section "Connect - Grow - Row 1 - Right Colum

2. Row 2

  • The content of the left column is the section "Connect - Grow - Row 2 - Left Column"
  • The content of the right one is the section "Connect - Grow - Row 2 - Right Colum"

To display 2 events for each category, we use the monklet {{connect-events-monklet}}

For example: To show 2 events whose category is "Discover MDPC", we use {{connect-events-monklet|find_category="discover-mdpc"}}

 Other category in the right column of row 2 is called "Membership". Its slug name is "membership"

 

MAIN SECTION

The main content of this section is CONTENT > SECTIONS > Connect - Grow

The description field is set to "grow" (case-insensitive)  so the site knows this is the grow section

It has 2 fields: Content and Secondary Content

  • "Content" defines the first row
  • "Secondary Content" defines the second one

For example:

Showing the first row: {{section-monklet|find="connect-grow-row-1-left-column"}}{{section-monklet|find="connect-grow-row-1-right-column"}}

Showing the second one: {{section-monklet|find="connect-grow-row-2-left-column"}}{{section-monklet|find="connect-grow-row-2-right-column"}}



Grow Section

Serve Section

This section has only one row and one column.

The section of the row 1 is "Connect - Serve - Row 1"

MAIN SECTION

The main section gets the content from the row one using the monklet {{section-monklet|find="connect-serve-row-1"}}

The description field is set to "serve" (case-insensitive)  so the site knows this is the serve section 

Serve Section

Connect Template

The "Next Step" page uses the "Connect Template" and links to the main Worship/Grow/Serve Section
