Creating Sub-Folios

Prerequisites: Users require folio administrator+ permissions for the folio to complete this task.

Note

Users who have both folio and site administrator permissions, see Creating Sub-Folios in Cartella Site Settings for details to create sub-folios in any Cartella site folio or sub-folio.

Sub-folios can be embedded within sub-folios.

To create a sub-folio within a sub-folio:

Log in to Cartella.
Navigate to [name-of-parent-folio] > [name-of-sub-folio] > Manage.
The Create Folio view displays.
Click Create Sub-Folio.
Enter the folio name in Name field.
Enter the folio description in the Description field. Use the HTML editor to add formatting, links, media, and view the HTML source code.
Drag or upload an image file to the Folio Image field to display as the folio's thumbnail image.
Select categories to associate with the folio.
Note
Administrators can click Create Category to create a new category to associate with the folio.

Select a sharing permission in the Sharing drop-down list. Choose one of the following:

Sharing Permission	Description
Inherited	Inherits the sharing level from its parent folio.
Public	Allows anyone see the folio and its contents, including viewers who are not logged in to Cartella.
Logged In	Displays the content only to logged-in users.
Specific Groups and Users	Displays the content only to selected groups or individual members. Note If you select this sharing level, a form for selecting users and groups displays.

Notice

We recommend using Inherited permissions whenever possible. Having many items marked Specific Groups and Users may degrade performance, especially on large sites.
