Meeting Documents

Each Meeting Minutes node has a file field that is used to hold one document -- the meeting minutes, or agenda, or what have you.

The accompanying View, meeting-docs, collects the minutes and displays the list of files in reverse-sort order.

To keep files straight, they should be named YYYY-MM-DD some description, where YYYY is the year, MM is the month, and DD is the day. If the specific day is not available, YYYY-MM some description is acceptable.

Steps to add meeting minutes:

  1. Click the Add Content link (right hand sidebar for Editors)
  2. Click on Meeting Minutes
  3. Fill out the title with something reasonably descriptive. However, the title field is not displayed in the meeting-docs view so what you put into this field isn't critical.
  4. Under Minutes, click on the Choose File button and select a file from your local hard drive.
  5. Click on the green Save button at the bottom of the page.

NOTE: The meeting-docs view sorts entries by date of posting. If you need to post a set of documents after the fact, scroll down to the box marked Authoring Information, click on it, and enter the date of the meeting in the Authored On box.
