====== Creating Nested Lists on the Collections Page ======
As of August 2024, the NNELS [[https://nnels.ca/browse-by-collection|Browse by Collection]] page nests list items with similar names under corresponding parent terms.

If you are creating a new collection for an award that NNELS has created collections for in the past, you will need to nest that collection under its parent term.

To nest a new collection under an existing parent collection:
  - Go to the collection's page
  - Click ''Edit'' {{ :public:nnels:cataloguing:drupalcollectionsliststutorial1.png?400 |}}
  - Click on ''Relations'' to open up the dropdown menu
  - Select the parent collection the new collection should be nested under from the ''Parent terms'' list {{ :public:nnels:cataloguing:drupalcollectionsliststutorial2.png?400 |}}
  - Set ''Weight''.
    - List items with higher weight values are "heavier." Heavier list items will "sink" and appear lower on lists than lighter list items.
      - Set to ''0'' for most collections
      - Set to ''1'' for collections with names that end with "(Finalists)" or "(Shortlist)"
  - Click ''Save''
  - You should see your collection nested under its parent term on the [[https://nnels.ca/browse-by-collection|Browse by Collection]] page. You should also see your collection listed on its parent page. If you click on the link for a parent term, it will take you to a page that is automatically updated with related child terms. {{ :public:nnels:cataloguing:drupalcollectionsliststutorial3.png?450 |}}

====== Editing Collections in bulk using the Taxonomy Manager in Drupal ======

To navigate to Drupal's Taxonomy Manager page, [[https://nnels.ca/admin/structure/taxonomy_manager/voc/relations|click here]].

To assign a parent term to multiple collections at once:
  - Select child collections from the list
  - Click ''Move'' from the Toolbar
  - Enter the parent term name that it should be a part of
    - if the parent term already exists, select it from the list of pop-up terms
    - if the parent term does not yet exist, enter the name of the collection following the same naming conventions as previous collections of its type
  - Click ''Move'' (under Options) {{ :public:nnels:cataloguing:collectionstaxonomymanager.png?400 |}}
  - You should see the child collections you selected appear as nested under the parent term in the list once the page refreshes {{ :public:nnels:cataloguing:collectionstaxonomymanager2.png?300 |}}


You can also edit collection descriptions and weights from the Taxonomy Manager page. Make sure to click ''Save changes'' before selecting a new collection to edit from the list, or your changes will be lost.
