Self-Help Guides: Create a New Self-Help Guide

Previously in Drupal, to create a self-help guide you needed to create separate columns and add them to a self-help guide page. Using Drupal 8 (D8), you can create a self-help guide page that already contains columns.

Creating a Self-Help Guide Page

  1. With your cursor, hover over Content in the Administrator Toolbar.
    1. Hover over Add Content.
    2. Select Self-Help Guide Page.
      Drupal page, signed in as content creator. Content tab highlighted, displaying dropdown options. Added content option highlighted, displaying content options. Self-Help Guide Page highlighted.
  2. Enter the title for the Self-help Guide in the Title field.
  3. Enter a Description. The description displays in the upper left of the self-help guide below the title.

Adding Columns to Your Self-Help Guide Page

Add columns to your Self-Help Guide to separate content into logical topics. Users can use the Column titles to orient where they may find a topic they need. The Column Title field displays the title that will show up in the Self-Help Guide.
Sample self-help guide with three column headers. Example column titles Prepare, Build, Sustain.

  1. Enter the title for the column in the Column Title field.
  2. Select Add Guide Column to add additional columns.
    Drupal 8 Self-Help Guide Page, Columns tab. Add Guide Column button highlighted.
  3. Continue to Work with Main Guide Categories.
