Section Monklets

Overview

Monklets are predefined code snippets that allow you to bring in other module content (sermons, events, etc.) into your pages.  There are a few monklets that have been created that are placed in the content area of your full width sections.

You can use a monklet inside a section by placing your cursor in the content area, selecting Insert > Insert Monklet > "Desired Monklet".

Some monklets allow/require inline parameters to be passed to define items from a specific group, category, etc.  http://help.monkcms.com/article/using-monklets/ and https://help.ekklesia360.com/article/using-inline-parameters/ provides details on using these parameters.

*NOTE - Monklets that are defined with "Section Monklet" in the title can be inserted into the content area of a section.

This monklet uses a link list to display a row of icon links.  Each link in this list should have a name and an icon class.  You will use the find inline parameter to define which link list to display.  Example monklet - {{section-monklet-event-list-1|find_category="community-groups"}}

The custom icons can be created by entering a custom class in the icon class field.  A full list of available icons can be found at http://brookside.monkpreview3.com/_assets/fonts/icons/ (use http://brookside.net/_assets/fonts/icons/ when your site goes live).

This monklet uses a link list to display a row of image banner links.  Each link in this list should have a name, description and an image.  You will use the find inline parameter to define which link list to display.  Example monklet - {{section-monklet-image-links|find="next-steps-serve"}}

The icon is optional and a full list of available icons can be found at http://brookside.monkpreview3.com/_assets/fonts/icons/ (use http://brookside.net/_assets/fonts/icons/ when your site goes live).

*NOTE - Only 1 locations monklet should be assigned to a page.
