Page Comparison

There are two main steps to making an item for sale page: building the taxonomy and making the page.

Step 1: Item for sale taxonomy

Taxonomy is the list of terms (tags) visitors use to filter your item for sale pages. Follow these instructions to create new taxonomy terms:

1. Use the admin menu to navigate to “Structure ￫ Taxonomy ￫ Item for sale type”

2. Review the existing terms to verify there isn’t a functionally identical term available.

   • If there is, use that term or edit it as needed.

3. Select "Add Term". 

4. Enter the name for the term; ignore the other sections of the form. A few notes:

   • Each item can only have one associated term.

   • Use uniform capitalization methods for all your terms (i.e. sentence case, title case, etc).

   • Only create new terms that are general enough to apply to multiple pages; the best practice is to have no more than 10-15 terms.

5. Save the term

Step 2: make the item for sale page

1. Use the admin menu to navigate to “Content ￫ Add Content ￫ Item for sale"

2. Complete the form

3. Check the Published box at the bottom of the page

4. Save the page
