How to set the display priority or weight of the Banner in the Anqi CMS backend?

As an experienced operator of Anqi CMS, I am well aware of the key role that website banners play in attracting users' attention and conveying core information.The display order of the banner, which seems like a small detail, actually directly affects the effective reach and user experience of marketing content.In AnQi CMS, although there is no direct number input box labeled 'priority' or 'weight' to control the arrangement of banners, the system provides a set of intuitive and flexible management methods, allowing you to easily control the display order of banners.

Anqi CMS Banner feature overview

In Anqi CMS, the Banner feature mainly serves the visual presentation and content promotion of the website. It is usually applied to two main scenarios:

1. Banner image for category pagesIn the 'Content Management' under 'Document Category', each category can be set with a set of Banner images as the visual header image or slideshow for that category.
2. Banner image on a single pageIn the 'Page Resources' under 'Page Management', each independent single page (such as 'About Us', 'Contact Information') can also be configured with a set of Banner images to highlight the page theme or for local promotion.

Whether it is a category page or a single page, the system supports uploading multiple images as banners for carousel. This is the key to understanding the display order management mechanism.

Core Mechanism: Implementation of Banner Display Order

The AnQi CMS is designed to prefer visual and intuitive operations rather than complex numeric weight configurations. Therefore, the display priority or weight of the Banner is managed through the background image management interface.Drag and drop sortingFunctionalities are implemented implicitly.

When you add multiple Banner images for a category or a single page in the background, the system will display these uploaded images in a list.In this list, you can directly drag the pictures up and down with the mouse to adjust their order.Which image will you drag to the top of the list, it will be displayed first in the front-end carousel; the image ranked second will follow immediately after, and so on.This "see-and-edit" operation method greatly reduces the difficulty of management, allowing you to control the Banner's rotation order intuitively without memorizing or entering complex numerical weights.

From the perspective of the front-end template, Anqi CMS goes throughbannerListTag to call and cycle through these Banner images. For example, in your template code, you might see something similar{% bannerList banners %}and{% for item in banners %}structure. Here is thebannersThe order of the elements within the list is exactly the result of the manual drag-and-drop sorting in the background management interface.Therefore, the carousel order of the Banner on the front-end page is consistent with the visual sorting of the backend.

Moreover, Anqi CMS also provides a more detailed management dimension. For example, bybannerListlabel'stypeParameters such as{% bannerList banners with type="幻灯" %}），You can call different collections' Banners based on the preset group names.This means that you can prepare a set of independent banner image collections for different areas of the website or different marketing activities, and manage the display order within each separately, thus realizing a more refined content operation strategy.
