Introduction

The Content Management System (CMS) is where we update content for the new onrr.gov website. The CMS is built with Directus, meaning that the user interface is a no-code presentation layer for data and content. The purpose of this users guide is to help everyone tasked with updating/modifying the new onrr.gov site navigate through the new CMS user interface.

Bulk update contacts using import/export

There are 4 contact groups that DISC requests ODDD to update: Royalty, Offshore Production, Onshore Production, and Leases & Agreements. These contacts are kept in the following spreadsheet (limited access). Sometimes these contact groups have major updates and it is easier for ODDD to make these updates as a bulk upload. Here’s how to bulk update contacts:

  1. Copy the correct tab on the following DISC spreadsheet (limited access) into a new, separate Excel and save it as a CSV.
  2. Within the contacts collection in the CMS, search for the appropriate keyword.
  • For example, if you are updating Onshore Production contacts, search for onshore.
  • Since we have around 600 contacts, be patient with the collection loading. Image of the contacts collection with contacts filtered to the "onshore" keyword.
  1. Once the search has loaded and only showing results for your keyword, check to make sure the number of contacts listed in the CMS results match the contacts listed in your CSV file.
  • If the numbers do not match, check both the CMS and your CSV to understand why.
  • In the CMS, there might be contacts with draft or archived status that might need to be deleted.
  • In the CSV, you can double check with DISC to see if additional contacts have been added or if some have been removed. DISC usually highlights the cells that they have changed. Image of the contacts collection with contacts filtered to the "onshore" keyword and the item count highlighted.
  1. Once you have the contact count reconciled, delete the old contacts in the CMS.
  • To bulk delete, click the box to the left of “Date Uploaded” and then click the trash can icon to the right of the search Image of the contacts collection with the bulk update box and delete button highlighted.
  • You will then get a confirmation window. When you are 100% sure you want to delete, press the red delete button. Image of the delete confirmation window
  1. Next, import your CSV.
  • Click the expand arrow on the Import/Export option in the right-hand menu.
  • Drag and drop your file into the Import bar and then click “Start Import”.
  • The CSV contacts will be imported into the CMS.

  1. All the new imports are in draft status. To bulk update the statuses to Published:
  • Click the box to the left of “Date Uploaded” and then click the pencil icon to the right of the search.
  • In the batch edit box, click the check box next to Status and set the status to Published.
  • Click the purple check button to save your work. Image of the batch edit window
  1. Check the dev site to make sure your updates are displayed.
  2. Send the dev site to the SME for approval.
  3. Once the SME approves, you can either use the Publish Flow function or trigger the CircleCi pipeline for onrr.gov main to update the live site. If there are hundreds of updates made, triggering CircleCi is usually more efficient.
  4. Check the live site before letting the SME know changes are live.

Handbooks

Updating table of contents

The table of contents for each handbook pulls from the complete pdf of the handbook. When changes are made to the handbook content, check to see if the page numbers or references have changed. If they have changed follow the steps below to update.

  1. Navigate to the handbook that has been changed under the handbooks collection.
  2. Click on the "Import/Export" button on the right hand side and export all items as a csv file.

  4. Click on "Import/Export" button on the right hand side and import the file. It will update the table of contents for the handbook.
  5. Review your changes in dev and ask your SME to review as well. Once approved, check all items and then select the "Flow" button on the right hand side. Clicking on the "Flow" button will reveal a "Publish" button. Click "Publish" and your changes will be released to the live site.
  6. Confirm live site has updated properly.
