In website content operation, how to make important information stand out in a sea of content and be discovered by users first is the focus of every operator. AnQiCMS (AnQiCMS) provides us with a very flexible and powerful tool to manage the display priority and features of content — that isflagField. This tiny field, yet contains immense potential for content operation.

flagThe mystery of the field: The synergistic effect of multiple attributes

In the Anqi CMS,flagField plays the role of 'recommended attribute' or 'feature tag' in the document. It represents a specific content attribute in the form of a single letter, such as:

  • h：Headline
  • c：Recommended
  • f：Slideshow/Carousel
  • a：特荐 (Special Recommendation)
  • s：滚动 (Scrolling/Marquee)
  • p：图片 (Image)
  • j：跳转 (Jump/External Link)

It is worth noting that the document mentionshThis usually means that the CMS has been givenhThis property has dual meanings. Specifically, when displayed on the front end, it determines whether it is presented as a headline, whether the text is bolded, or both, which depends on how the front-end template of your website is written and how these properties are parsed.

Then, when a document'sflagField does not contain only one letter, but is composed of multiple letters like 'hc', what does this mean? Simply put, it means that this documentalso hasThese properties represent all the characteristics. It is not an 'either/or' relationship, but a 'and' logic.

For example, a document'sflagThe field is set to “hc”, which means the document is marked as both “headlines” content and “recommended” content.In practical applications, this usually means that your front-end template will display this document simultaneously in the headline area of the website and include it in the recommended content list.It gained dual exposure on the website, significantly increasing its visibility.

Imagine further, if yourflagThe field is set to "hcs", then this document is not only the headline and recommended content, but may also be displayed in a looping news form on the page, attracting more users' attention.If set to “hcp”, it may serve as both headline and recommended content, while also occupying a place in the website's image carousel area, attracting user clicks with its visual impact.

This multi-attribute combination mechanism greatly enhances the flexibility and fineness of content management.The operation personnel can assign the most suitable combination of attributes to each document based on the value of the content and the marketing strategy, without modifying the content of the document itself.

ingeniously utilizeflagField, enhancing the value of content

Use reasonablyflagThe multiple properties of the field can bring many benefits to the operation of website content:

It can be removed after the event ends to restore its original state.
  3. Optimizing user experienceThrough presenting the most relevant, popular, or valuable contentflagThe field is displayed to the user first, which helps the user quickly find the information they are interested in, enhancing the usability and user satisfaction of the website.
  4. Supports integration with specific featuresFor example, the "p" attribute makes it convenient for front-end templates to extract documents with this attribute and form a photo news or product display area; the "j" attribute clearly indicates that this is a jump link, which is convenient for front-end special processing to guide users to access external resources.

To make full use offlagThe effectiveness of the field, it is recommended to communicate fully with the front-end development team at the beginning of website construction, and clarify each kind offlagThe specific display rules and styles of properties and their combinations in different page modules.So, in the subsequent content operation, you can operate with ease, flexibly allocate content, and make the website vibrant.
