Research Topics and Tags

Research Topics are the core organizing structure of your Research AMP site

Most Research AMP sites have about 6-10 research topics, used to subdivide the site's central theme and to organize all of the content on the site. The sites also have a list of focus tags to further subdivide the content. For more on how to subdivide your site's central topic into Research Topics and Tags, see Elements of Research AMP: https://app.gitbook.com/o/c4iDgKjDka0osrfN9sSX/s/Aq6E3UMrp9SVbTrsh8xn/~/changes/18/introducing-research-amp/elements-of-research-amp.

Add Research Topics

  1. Navigate to "research topics" in the Dashboard, and click "Add New." This will take you to a page where you can enter research topics, their descriptions, and an image.

Research Topics will appear as a dropdown menu in the Primary Navigation bar, as elements on the Home page, as well as on a separate Archive page that is created when you add research topics. This Archive page offers the topic description, as well as all of the content that has been associated with the topic. The “short” description, used in research topic teasers on the homepage and elsewhere on the site, is stored in the post excerpt.

Add Focus Tags

  1. Focus Tags are accessible from the submenus of Research Reviews, Articles, Profiles, and New Items. Changing the focus tags from any of these submenus changes all of the focus tags for your site.

  2. From the Dashboard, navigate to one of the above submenus

  3. Add a name, slug, and optional description for the tag.

A second method to add Focus Tags is to do so while you are creating content: you can add a Focus Tag in the right sidebar.
