Wiki Space Top Level Topic Example One

This page represents a large, key topic in the space.

Note that the

Code Block
{scrollbar:icons=false}

macro is being used throughout this example of the pages in a space, to provide a next-previous and up-one-level browse sequence. This is optional, but very useful. The icons have no alt text and may not be displayed on the NCI Wiki.wiki space.

There could be many child pages below the first level topic pages, each child page gathering other pages on another large topic. Each would have the page title embedded, as this page does, at heading level one, typically with the macro

Code Block
{page-info:title}

.

A page like this should not have a lot of content, and should have no subheadings. If you use subheadings here, and you make a PDF of the pages to create a "book," the headings in the "book" will not be in sequence.

A page like this optimally says only "The following topics are included:"

Code Block
{children:all=true}

The children macro lists the pages gathered by the top level topic page. The parameter "all=true" is optional. Without the parameter, a list with only the child pages of the top level topic page will be displayed. Continue to Wiki Space Top Level Topic Example Two to see how the macro works.

A page like this often says only "This page family includes the following pages" followed by a Page Tree macro or the Children Display macro listing the pages gathered. For a comparison of Page Tree and Children Display macros, refer to Putting a List of Child Pages on a Page. Continue to Wiki Space First Level Topic Example Two for a demonstration.
