I have been building out the Greek and Roman Studies new Cascade website today. (http://test.uvic.ca/humanities/greekroman/index.php)
In addition to the submitted spreadsheet layout, the following recommended/approved changes have also been included and now show on the website:
- Moved "Why study classics?" to top of the list
- Created "Declaring your major" as secondary of Undergraduate
- Made "Applying to UVic" as secondary of Undergraduate
- Made "News & events" tertiary
- Made "Alumni" new primary
- Made "Donate" secondary of Alumni
- Made "Newsletter" secondary of Resources
Inserted content on:
http://test.uvic.ca/humanities/greekroman/undergraduate/declaringmajor/index.php
http://test.uvic.ca/humanities/greekroman/alumni/donate/index.php
Updated contact block with Greek and Roman Studies information:

We had a site originally configured to support sub-primaries, and midway through development realized that we no longer wanted them.
You need to have edit permissions on the configuration set in Administration/Configuration Sets. If not, ask communications to set that up.
Configuration set
1) Go to Administration/Configuration Set and choose the configuration set.
2) Click on the view tab. The template should be [UVicCa:_internal/templates/UVic2012/UVicCa2012-3-2] and not [UVicCa:_internal/templates/UVic2012/UVicCa2012]. Click on "Template 3.2" (and not "Standard Desktop" beside "Outputs" near the top of the window. (Not sure why you can change this in the view tab.)
3) Click on the edit tab.
4) In 06-primary-navigation, the format field should have the value
[UVicCa:_internal/formats/navigation/uvic2012-32/one-level-uvic-horizontal-nav]
5) In 07-secondary-navigation, the format field should have the value UVicCa:_internal/formats/navigation/uvic2012/two-level-uvic-vertical-nav-primary-only]
6) Submit changes. Check in the view tab that the settings are correct. The view and edit tabs do not reliably display the same values for any of these three settings. Confirm by going to the home page and seeing if the space in the banner formerly allocated for subprimaries is gone (correct) or is still there (wrong).
Folder structure
The folder structure has to change from 3 levels deep to 2 levels deep (or 4 to 3 if you have sub-secondaries). Move each folder representing a secondary or tertiary section from inside the folder representing the subprimary to the folder representing the primary. When the subprimary folder is empty, delete it. The secondaries should now appear in the preview in the left column. For example:
change this structure with subprimary:
home
homesubprime
donate
jobpostings
news
contact
to this structure with no subprimary
home
donate
jobpostings
news
contact
You should not have to edit any of the metadata settings on the folders, nor metadata or output settings on the files.
