Page 68 - PAM - PROOF

V 1.1 February 2024

Where you place things on a page is your choice. It’s your website. Personally I
prefer the appearance when that information is at the top of the page but you
might prefer it at the bottom of the page. There is no right or wrong way but
perhaps consider where you place important information so that those viewing it
on a mobile screen don’t have to scroll too far to find it.

If we look at the hierarchy of that page now there is a block called u3a single
group data followed by two paragraph blocks, a gallery block, a u3a Events list
block, a spacer block, and a columns block. This is the first time you have heard
of some of these blocks but I think you can work out for yourself what they are
being used for.

What we haven’t covered here is the yellow placeholder where Events data will
appear. u3a Events is a separate topic that is covered later in this workbook.

I hope that this is all starting to make sense now and that you are seeing how
almost everything you see on a page is a block of some sort or another. Lots
more to come.
Add New Group
There will be times when you need to create a new group and you can choose to
add a new group either from the drop-down menu in Site View or via the Groups
menu on the Dashboard. You will be presented with this form. It’s a long form
and only the top part of it is showing here.

The information you add to this form will be used by the SiteWorks system.
After you enter the Group Name there are several elements, to add data for.
There is a drop down-menu to select the status of the group such as Active.
There are five options and they are self-explanatory. You must choose the
category of the group. There is another drop-down menu to select the group
