Developers Toolkit

Developers Toolkit is the section of the website you come to to make larger changes to your Union site. It's used to add / remove content as well as drafting / publishing content, restructuring the pages, navigation and more.

Pages (Tree View)

A sample segment of the tree for a testing site, and below what it matches up with on the front end.

View showing the front end that matches up with the tree above.

First things first, every Union will have a slightly different looking Tree View, that's because this is related to your site and it's structure.

To give a brief overview of how this works, I'll try to describe it as best I can.

• We think of the Tree View page, similar to an empty box, or a blank canvas, that is your website.
• You then need to add content to this box / canvas
• Everything that you add that is not a sub-page, or a sub section, (so when you're setting it up, it doesn't have a parent) is treated as the top level of your website.
• Everything has to have a container.

The example to the right hand side, shows the first segment on a tree view for a test Union Cloud site, and below it, shows how that matches up on the Front End. the simplest way to look at it, is to think about Sections, as lots of different types / shapes / sizes of container, and think of Pages / Links / Widgets as content you can put in those containers. All content must have a contianer though

Structuring Content

Since Release 25 the Developers Toolkit has been updated and will now no longer allow you to implement impossible or irrelevant combinations of sections and content. The table below should explain which items you are able to implement in which order.

Header text	Section(c)	Page(c)	Link(c)	Widget(c)	Subsite(c)
Section (Tab Container)(p)	Yes	Yes	No	Example	Example
Slider(p)	Example	Example	Example	No	Example
Column(p)	Example	Example	Example	Example	Example
Grid(p)	Example	Example	Example	No	Example
Stripe(p)	Example	Example	Example	No	Example
List(p)	Example	Example	Example	Example	Example
Menu(p)	Example	Example	Example	No	Example
Hamburger(p)	Example	Example	Example	No	Example
Example	Example	Example	Example	Example	Example
Page(p)	Example	Example	Example	No	Example
Link(p)	No	Example	Example	No	Example
Widget(p)	No	No	No	No	No
Subsite(p)	No	No	No	No	Example

Others

You may have noticed that we skipped over Articles, Documents', and Images, that's because they are just more links to move back to those sections, rather that directly changing content.
