Authorization Course Info Box Template

How to create a new authorization info box

Step 1:

Create a new child page under Authorizations using the title of the authorization course. Do not stick "auth" or "authorization" in the name. Note that a single authorization course page is all that's needed to cover multiple tools. To make a new page quickly, type in the name at the end of the URL to the Authorizations...

https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/wiki/Authorizations/Hot_Air_Balloon

Create the page.

Step 2:

From the Insert menu select Template. Type in AuthorizationCourseInfo and select AuthorizationCourseInfo...

File:VisualEditor Template Insert Menu-en.png

If you don't see the Insert menu, switch over to the visual editor...

If you want to use the code editor, scroll down to find what to copy and paste.

Step 3:

Fill out the template form. Authorization Course Name, Authorizer Name, and Schedule Frequency are required fields. Check mark optional fields on the left as needed.

Insert the template.

Description of each field can be found at the end of this page. Refer to this example if you want some inspiration...

Save the page. Do not include any other content on the page.

Once the page loads, click on the gear icon in the bottom right corner of the Authorization Course Info box, and copy the insert page code.

Step 5:

Paste the code into all related tool pages and the appropriate section in the Authorizations page.

Step 6:

In the future if you want to modify the authorization course info content, click on the go and go to the Edit this auth link.

That's it!
