Basic

The components every site starts with.
Everything below is declared by Basic itself, so it describes this deployment rather than a manual — and it is rewritten whenever the program changes.
What it is
- Its key is Basic, which is also the prefix of every component it owns.
- It is free: every site on this platform has it, and no entitlement can take it away.
What it may be allowed to do
These are the permissions it declares. A person sees one of its screens only where his role carries the matching permission.
- ads.manage
- ads.view
- banners.manage
- banners.view
- contact.manage
- contact.view
- downloads.manage
- downloads.view
- folders.manage
- folders.view
- sliders.manage
- sliders.view
What it puts on a page
9 components, each of which can be dropped onto a page in the composer.
Advertisements
Code from an advertising network, run where you place it.
Placed as Basic.Ads.
2 settings:
- Slot — chosen from a list this site's own data fills. Which advertisements this runs. Change the slot, not the page.
- How many — a number, left alone it is 1. Most networks want one unit per place on a page.
Banner
A set of pictures, shown one after another where you place it.
Placed as Basic.Banner.
3 settings:
- Set — chosen from a list this site's own data fills. Which banners this draws. Change the set, not the page.
- How many — a number, left alone it is 5.
- Draw the banner's words on the picture — a switch, left alone it is true. Turn this off where the picture already carries its own words.
Cancelling a purchase
The «botón de arrepentimiento» Argentine law asks for: a buyer says he has changed his mind, gets a reference and a receipt by e-mail, and the request lands on the Revocations screen.
Placed as Basic.Revocation.
One setting:
- Ask for the captcha — a switch, left alone it is true. Off, a script can post through this form as fast as it likes.
Contact us
How to reach this section, with a form for writing to it.
Placed as Basic.Contact.
4 settings:
- Show the contact details — a switch, left alone it is true. The phone numbers, addresses and profiles set on the section.
- Show the message form — a switch, left alone it is true.
- Ask for the captcha — a switch, left alone it is true. Off, a script can post through this form as fast as it likes.
- Show the map — a switch, left alone it is false. Needs the section's latitude and longitude.
Files
A set of files a visitor may download.
Placed as Basic.Downloads.
2 settings:
- Which set of files — chosen from a list this site's own data fills. Which files this offers. Change the set, not the page.
- Show how large each file is — a switch, left alone it is true. Worth keeping on: somebody on a telephone is deciding whether to start.
Member details
One member's public profile, reached by their username.
Placed as Basic.Member.
It takes no settings — it draws one way and has nothing to be told.
Page title
A band with the page's name, and where it sits.
Placed as Basic.PageTitle.
2 settings:
- Heading — typed in. Left empty, the page's own title is used — which is what it should usually be.
- Show where the page sits — a switch, left alone it is true. The line under the heading: the section, and the category on an article.
Slider
A set of pictures that moves by itself, one after another.
Placed as Basic.Slider.
4 settings:
- Set — chosen from a list this site's own data fills. Which slides this draws. Change the set, not the page.
- How many — a number, left alone it is 5.
- Seconds on each — a number, left alone it is 6.
- Show the words over the picture — a switch, left alone it is true. Off draws the pictures alone, for a set whose words are already in them.
Text
A block of text you write yourself.
Placed as Basic.Html.
One setting:
- Show the block's name as a heading — a switch, left alone it is true.
