Finding information includes searching and browsing (see Finding without Searching for more information on information architecture) .

This tip shows the different tools provided by the projectdoc Toolbox PDAC1 to support users finding information by browsing.

If you need to render links from manual and dynamic links in one list, use the Table Merger Macro.

The value of a property must not be a dynamic link!

This is due to the fact that the value of a property is stored in the Lucene index at the time the page is saved. Dynamic linking is resolved at request time.

Standard types, like Tags, Categories, Subjects allow to categorize documents – see Finding without Searching - applied! for details.

Further categoization is provided by type specific type using the Type Property (for instance Resource Type , Role Type , or Topic Type ) – again, see Finding without Searching - applied! for details.

The Parent Property is a reference to the semantic parent of the document. This navigation option is often redundant since the breadcrumbs allow users to find the parent page quickly. The parent property may be useful when accessed for link rendering purposes.

Properties often link to documents of other types.

Here are some examples:

• The Audience Property and the Roles Property (of the Stakeholder Doctype) point to document of type Role
• The Experience Level Property (of the Topic Doctype) points to documents of type Experience Level
• The Authors Property (of the Resource Doctype) points to documents of type Person
• The Publisher Property (of the Resource Doctype) points to documents of type Organization
• The Experts Property (of the Charter Doctype) points to documents of type Stakeholder

This allows authors to define a web of documents that are easily navigateable by readers.
