Custom Training


Once you've taken the users through the basic training, the next step is to explain to them how their site operates. Depending on your project, there could be custom content classes and custom templates that the users need to understand. For each of these elements, the user should get experience in adding, editing, and deleting them as well as seeing how their actions impact on the front end of the solution. A news story added in one section may also appear in another section, e.g. a node list on the front page; if the title is too long, it might cause formatting issues on the homepage while looking fine on the news page.
