Working with Index Pages

Index Pages Explained

Index Pages are the top-level pages in your Site. They are generally the starting point for users browsing your Site. For navigation purposes, in order to view an Index Page it must be linked to a Menu.

Index Pages essentially display lists or representations of objects which can be expanded on by supporting Object Pages which show more information about the object in question.

So users typically find objects they are interested in on Index Pages and follow links to Object Pages providing more detail.

Index Pages are generally tied to a specific Object Type, but you can have multiple Index Pages per Object Type.

There are three types of Index Page:

1. Object listing pages, such as lists, grids, and accordions

2. Graphical pages, such as bar charts, maps, pie charts and roadmaps

3. Diagram pages, showing CW Modeler diagrams or visualization diagrams.
