Associating Taxonomy to an Object Type
You can associate a taxonomy to multiple object types. When you do this, you can classify objects of the specified type by the associated taxonomy.
To associate a taxonomy to an object type
1. In CentraSite Control, go to Administration > Taxonomies.
2. In the Taxonomies page, click the name of the taxonomy that you want to associate with the object types.
3. In the Edit Taxonomy page, select the Applicable to Object Types tab. Select the object types that you want to associate with the taxonomy.
When associating the taxonomy with object types, keep the following points in mind:
You can either mark the check boxes for the object types individually, or select them all by checking the
All Object Types check box.
By default,
CentraSite displays the
All Object Types check box as
selected. When this check box is selected, the check boxes for the list of object types are automatically displayed as
selected and
disabled.
This default selection does not associate the taxonomy with the selected object types. Instead, it only allows the taxonomy to be applied to the selected object types (that is, CentraSite allows you to classify the selected object types using the taxonomy).
If you unmark the
All Object Types check box, and mark ALL of the object types as
selected, then there does not exist an association, and the taxonomy is applicable to all of the selected object types.
If you unmark the
All Object Types check box and the list of ALL the object types, then there does not exist an association, and the taxonomy is still applicable to all the object types.
Therefore, to associate a taxonomy with one or more object types, you MUST:
i. Unmark theAll Object Types check box.
ii. Manually select the check box(es) of the object types that you want to associate with the taxonomy.
4. Click Save.
