How to set up the Articles and Article Link references in FieldGuideToModeling

Entering References from an External Website

1) Enter the External Article into the SourceDocumentURL field.

e. g. SourceDocumentURL = http://www.fieldguidetomodeling.com/pageURL.XXX

2) Set the Flag to N in the ASPfileSourceFlag field.

This means that the site will not display a local ASP file, or the equivalent.

3) SourceDocumentURLStatusCode = ‘ACT’

This is set to ACT to indicate that the source URL on the internet is what will be displayed by the FGM.

4) SourceDocumentURLStatusName = ‘Active’

This is set to Active to indicate that the source URL on the internet is what will be displayed by the FGM.

5) The following needs to be entered into FGM for handling:

a) The Author needs to be added as an Author to the OrganizationContact table. The AuthorKey will be the OrganizationContactKey, so that the Author can be associated with other article without duplication. Choose the author from the dropdown list.

b) Enter ArticleType and any other fields you can enter.

Entering Articles Archived from External Websites

Whenever an article page from an external website is listed in FGM, that page and its contents needs to be copied and archived in the FGM KB folder. This is to make sure that the Article is not lost from viewing. FGM staff desires to keep viewers informed and valuable articles saved from extinction.

FGM setting parallels those for articles written for FGM. (see below)

1) KBASPXFileName = ArticleDefault.htm or the start page of the saved Article,

e. g. Choosing_a_DLG.htm

2) Set the Flag to Y in the ASPfileSourceFlag field.

This value is set to Y to indicate that the site will present the pages from a local FGM file.

3) SourceDocumentURLStatusCode = ‘INA’

This is set to INA to indicate that the source URL is not on the internet, but local in FGM.

For articles written just for the FGM, they exist only in this website, so it is Broken by Default

4) SourceDocumentURLStatusName = ‘Inactive’

This is set to Inactive to indicate that the source URL on the internet is Broken or No Longer can be Found

5) Same as Above.
