Local Site Links

The template supports custom defined local site links which define various parts of your website. Each of these are defined through a link tag within the head of the document and each can optionally be defined.

Contents

[edit] home

This link defines the homepage of the current site, and controls which element within the breadcrumbs is associated with the current site navigation.

<link rel="home" href="http://admissions.unl.edu/" title="UNL Admissions home page" />

This link can be either a relative or absolute link.

If no home link is specified, the second element within the breadcrumbs will be selected automatically. If NO breadcrumb element matches the URL specified, the last element in the breadcrumb will be selected. More details on the breadcrumb selection

[edit] events

This link defines the link to a local calendar using the UNL Event Publishing system.

<link rel="events" href="http://events.unl.edu/wdn/" title="Web Developer Network" />

This link will control the list of local events displayed within the events section of the global tools. Image:Localsitelink events.png

[edit] search

This defines a local site search page to direct the end user to when they search your local site.

<link rel="search" href="http://wdn.unl.edu/search/" title="Search the WDN Site" />

[edit] alternate (rss)

The alternate link specifies an alternate representation of the current page, or related pages for use in an RSS or Feed reader. This also allows the local RSS feed to be linked within the browser's address bar as well as within a column of the RSS feeds displayed within the global site tools.

<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" href="http://www1.unl.edu/iimblog/feed/" title="Internet & Interactive Media" />
