Manage the smaller content lists

Audience: operators · Scope: the short admin lists that feed icons, tags and small page sections · Last reviewed: 2026-07-20

What this does — Beyond the big content screens (homepage, news, projects, designers) the menu holds a row of short lists. Each one feeds a small, specific part of the site: an icon strip, a dropdown, a carousel. They're all ordinary list screens, so once you know one you know them all — this article says what each one actually feeds, so you can find the right screen quickly.

Before you start

What each list feeds

Menu entryWhat it feeds
IndustriesThe Industry classification on project showcases, and the industry filter on the public Projects gallery
Industry IconsThe small icon strip on a product page and on its spec sheet PDF (assigned per product)
ApprovalsThe certification/approval logos on a product page and its spec sheet PDF (assigned per product)
DiagramsThe dimensional drawings on a product page, the Dimensional Diagrams PDF, and the spec sheet PDF
Contact CardsThe digital business-card pages at /contact-cards/<name>
Social MediaThe social icon strip in the site header and footer
TestimonialsThe testimonial carousel that can be placed on any page
InnovationsA tagging list on products — it isn't rendered on the public site today
Specifier TypesA classification list that isn't used on the public site today
About usThe About Us page — its text, photo, and the team members slider

Icon lists — Industry Icons, Approvals, Mountings

These three work identically: each entry is a Title plus an image, and products are linked to them on the product edit screen (the Industry Icons, Approval Images and Mounting Icons fields).

  1. Click the list in the menu, then Add.
  2. Enter the Title and upload the image.
  3. Set the Ordering and click Save.
  4. Open the products that should show it and tick it in the matching field.

Upload high-resolution images. These are printed into the spec sheet PDF, not just shown on screen — the guidance on the screen itself is that about 1000px of height fills roughly a quarter of the PDF page.

Diagrams (dimensional drawings)

Diagrams are per-product technical drawings.

  1. Click Diagrams, then Add.
  2. Fill in the Internal Name (required — this is what you'll search for in the admin), an optional Title shown to customers, upload the Diagram Image, and pick the Product it belongs to.
  3. Optionally restrict it with Allowed Customer Groups, set Active, and Save.

Unlike the icon lists, a diagram points at one product from its own screen — you don't assign it from the product side.

Contact Cards

Each card is a shareable digital business card with its own web address, e.g. /contact-cards/jane-smith.

  1. Click Contact Cards, then Add.
  2. Fill in the SEF Segment (required — the end of the web address), First Name, Last Name (required), and upload the Image.
  3. Add whatever the person wants shown: Middle Names, Position, Company, Tag Line, Email, Phone, Location, URL Google Maps (turns the location into a map link), URL LinkedIn, and URL Website.
  4. Click Save — the edit screen shows the live link to the finished card.

Social Media

The icon strip linking to Beta-Calco's social accounts, shown in the site header and footer.

  1. Click Social Media, then Add.
  2. Fill in the Social Media name (required — YouTube, LinkedIn, …) and the Social Media Account URL (required — the full address, including https://).
  3. Upload both the Image and the Hover Image — the second is what shows when someone points at the icon, so the pair should match in size.
  4. Set the Ordering and Active, then Save.

The Social Media list — one row per account, with its link and Active switch

Testimonials

The quote carousel that Beta-Calco drops onto marketing pages.

  1. Click Testimonials, then Add.
  2. Fill in the Internal Name (required, admin-only), upload the Logo Image of the customer's company, write the Quote, and add the person's Name and Position.
  3. Upload the Portrait Image, optionally add a URL to social profile (this turns the portrait and name into a link), set the Ordering, and Save.

There are two Testimonials screens. This one is the marketing carousel. The other lives under Career Page → Testimonials and holds employee quotes for the careers page — see Update the career page.

About us

About us is a single record, so the menu entry opens the edit form directly — there's no list.

  1. Click About us.
  2. Edit the Description (the page text — required) and the Photo.
  3. Below that, Team Members is a small grid: each person has a Photo, Name, Role, an optional Department, and an Ordering. Add, edit or reorder them here.
  4. Click Save.

What happens next

  • Changes are live on the next page load — there's no publish step beyond the Active switch where a screen has one.
  • Icons and diagrams that feed the spec sheet PDF only reach it when that PDF is regenerated; use Refresh cached specsheet PDF on the product if you need it right away.

Good to know

  • An entry with nothing assigned does nothing. Icons, approvals and industries only appear once a product or showcase is linked to them.
  • Innovations and Specifier Types don't currently show anywhere on the public site. Keep them tidy if you like, but don't spend time on them expecting a visible result — check with your Beta-Calco contact before building anything on them.
  • Internal Name vs Title. Several of these screens have both: the Internal Name is for you (it's what the admin list shows and searches), the Title is what customers read.
  • Deleting removes it everywhere. A deleted icon disappears from every product that used it. Deactivate or rename instead when you're unsure.

Screens and labels can differ slightly between environments — if a label doesn't match what you see, check with your Beta-Calco contact.
