How to use it

Navigate to the section where you wish to add the list of blog posts, then click over to the 'Content' tab. 

Organizer

Click "Create content" then select the "Organizer - Zone A" content type.

Give the content item a name and then configure the Organizer. At minimum, you will need to:

• Select the "Courses" option in the "Content Type and Layout" field
• Select the section where TerminalFour will find the course content items that you wish to be displayed by this organizer in the "Section" field
• Select how you would like your posts to be sorted (such as alphabetically by name, or by their order within the section) in the "Sorting method" field

For more information about the other options, see the content type encyclopedia for the Organizer content type.

Course

Navigate to the section where you would like to store your courses, then click "Create content" and select "Course."

Pro tip: You may find it helpful and easier to stay organized if you have a separate folder/subsection where you just store your course content items, separate from your organizer(s) and the other content items on that page.
