Efficiently navigating and sharing your content library pages can enhance how you interact with stakeholders and deliver targeted content. Here's a step-by-step guide to using these shortcuts effectively:
Why Content Library Pages Matter
Content library pages allow you to explore all types of content available in your virtual career center. These pages are especially useful for stakeholders, as they can leverage filters to find specific content based on their needs.
How to Access Content Library Pages
How-To Video:
Option 1: Through Widgets
Locate a widget on your virtual career center.
Look for the call-to-action button in the bottom-right corner, such as "See More Events" or "Explore More Jobs". The button text will vary depending on the content type.
Click the button.
For example, clicking the events button will take you to a page with a URL structured as
/events, often accompanied by tags in the URL if the widget filters specific categories (e.g., info sessions or career fairs).
To view the full content library, remove any tags in the URL. This action will direct you to the broader content library page, such as
/events.
Option 2: Manually Editing the URL
Navigate to your virtual career center's base URL.
Add a backslash (
/) followed by the content type name to the URL. Examples:/eventsfor events/resourcesfor resources/jobsfor jobs
Press Enter. This shortcut will take you directly to the corresponding content library page.
Using Filters for Targeted Content
Once on a content library page, use the available filters to narrow down results:
Select specific tags to refine the displayed content.
For example, on the resources page, you could filter for resume-related materials to share with a student.
Sharing Pre-Filtered Content
Apply the desired filters on the content library page.
Copy the URL from the browser.
Share this unique, pre-filtered URL with stakeholders, such as students or colleagues.
Embedding and Enhancing Access
Embedding Links: You can embed pre-filtered links on your platform using tools like a block editor to create buttons or hyperlinks.
Custom Buttons: Add custom call-to-action buttons in your header or other sections to improve navigation to these pages.
Additional Tips for Different Content Types
You can repeat these steps for any content type, such as jobs, events, or resources. Simply adjust the URL by appending the appropriate content type (e.g., /jobs).
Conclusion
These shortcuts provide a quick and effective way to navigate your content library pages, use filters to refine content, and share targeted information. Whether you’re helping stakeholders explore content or embedding links in your platform, these tools can streamline how you manage and share resources.
