Custom Categories and Guidance Type of: Term Definition [message #3463] Sun, 26 February 2006 12:15 Go to next message

When selecting the 'Add' button on the 'Assign' tab for a custom category,
Guidance of type 'term definition' is not presented for selection. All other
types are. I was attempting to build a Custom category of 'Glossary' for
inclusion in the applet menu.

That is by design. Terms were not intended to be 'browsable' pages that you
place into a view, but rather elements that get published into the glossary
page in the published site.

However, you can file a bugzilla and we can consider it as an enhancement.

My apologies, I was wrong. Although the rationale is still correct that we
do not recommend to make terms browsable elements, because people might be
starting putting too much information into the term definition, which might
be better placed into a concept guidance element.

The reason why the term definitions did not show up in the Add Dialog is
because of a bug with the "All" filter. If you switch to the "Guidance"
filter in the filter combo box on the top of the dialog, you see the terms
showing up. I will file a bugzilla to get this fixed.

So again, you can do it, but I recommend against it.
