Template: Subject Guide Components: Home

Instructions

To add a reusable subject guide component to any of your guides or pages, click the "Add box" link on your page, then:

  1. Click the "Reuse Existing Box" tab in the pop-up menu
  2. Choose the "Template: Subject Guide Components" guide
  3. Choose which box you want to reuse. (The available boxes are all viewable on this page.)
  4. Optionally, overwrite the existing box title with you own title. However, best practice is to leave this field blank and use the existing title.  

Use existing box menu dialog

Notes:

  1. Using these reusable boxes is important for facilitating global updates. For instance, if our catalog changes, I can update the catalog search box and this search tool will update automatically throughout the site.
  2. You can use this technique to reuse any of your own content or content created by others in the Library. This is a good way to avoid creating duplicated or redundant content!
