Integration into Django-CMS

Set up series overview

The integration of the series and their publications are realized through an Django Apphook in the CMS. That is, a CMS page is created that is subsequently managed throug the eoaseries application. The Apphooks have to be registered in the Publication Platform in a file called cms_apps.py that is located next to the settings.py file. An example can be found at https://github.molgen.mpg.de/EditionOpenAccess/eoa-1.5/blob/master/src/eoa/cms_apps.py. After having created and populated that file, restart the Django service.

Create a new page in the CMS and click on Save at the bottom of the page to finalize the creation.:

From the Page dropdown menu, select Advanced settings.

Scroll down to the field Application.

Click on it to select the appropriate app hook that was defined in the cms_apps.py file and save the settings.

When visiting the page now, it will be empty. In order to insert one or more series, they need to be created in the Admin interface. The next section explains how to create them.
