Types of articles

There are two types of documentation articles in the manual:

• How-tos which are step-by-step descriptions of how to accomplish a specific task, but may be simplified or leave out non-critical details
• Feature articles which describe a feature in general terms – and in full detail

A feature article will always be structured in the same way.

• A Main section will introduce you to the feature, and explain where to locate it and how to find it. This section would also include:
  • Topics of special interest to implementers and front-enders
  • Information for developers on e.g. creating custom providers, the API and notification subscribers
  • Information on data storage, and import/export of data
• A Database section covering the tables and constrains relevant to the feature

To help you find what you need, the right-side menu is stickied – and allows you to quickly jump between sections.
