New CMS Tags and Hiding Inappropriate Next/Prev Links

published Mar 18, 2004 12:53pm
Two new tags are now available in the CMS. « and » produce left and right guillmet: ??? and ???. These are traditionally used as quotation marks (e.g. in French) but are handily (mis-)used on the web for their arrow-esque appearance and compact size. Many pages in the CMS are automatically equipped with Next and Previous page links at the bottom of the page by virtue of their template. However, in some circumstances there may be a particular page for which these are inappropriate (e.g. a submission form where the presence of 'next' right below the 'submit' button may be confusing). There is now a new option in the page metadata to supress the display of Next/Previous link for a particular page.
