Resources is a section within the app for you to host various content like PDF's, Video's or an article. It can be enabled and configured at:
App station > Settings > Resources
Resources name
The name of this section can be changed to meet your needs, for example, maybe for you it is a "Library". Regardless of what you name it, the admin portions of the site will always refer to it as Resources. I must be short in order to fit within the application navigation design.
Resource categories
By default Resources is a simple list of items...the categories are hidden.
However you can enable categories to help group your Resource items.
Default categories
Favorites - displays any Resource items favorites of a user
Recently added - displays Resource items added within the last 30 days
Remaining items - displays Resource items that do not appear within any other category (including custom)
Most popular - displays the most popular Resource items across all your users
Custom categories
You can also create custom categories based on tags you have assigned to items.
Cover media
Each Resource item can have either one image or one video as the cover. Once selected, you will see a preview of the media, and can delete the media at any time.
PDF attachment
Each Resource item can optional have a PDF attachment. Once selected, you'll see it underneath the media, and it too can be deleted at any time.
Title, tags and page body
The title provided will appear on your list of resource cards, while the page body is displayed only once the card is opened by a user.
Tags are used to help users filter your content, as well as providing a source for your custom categories
Page body
The default page body has a rich text editor allowing you to format your text with different styles.
Inside the body, you can include links to external resources, which will open in a new tab for your users
Embed code
The default page body can be replaced with code you embed from external sites. You can use this to bring new functionality into your app, like dynamic forms for surveys and quizzes, slide presentations, scheduling apps and much more.
You simply copy/paste the embed code from your external service and paste it into the Embed code of your resource item. You can customize the code as you wish, particularly important for the size of the displayed content.
Publishing
You can immediately publish items, save them as drafts for future use, or schedule them for publication at a date and time in the future.
