Dynamic categories are an add on feature that allows you to create custom URLs that pull locations from various categories. These links are great to use for special events, class schedules and more! A specific URL structure must be used to generate an accurate view.
The structure of the URL is:
<BASE MAP.CONCEPT3D.COM URL>?id=<MAP ID>#!col/<name_of_category_in_sidebar>:<concept3d_id_or_location_reference_id>:<icon>:<category_checked>:<use_concept3d_or_reference_id>
Depending on how you want the information displayed some of the detail may be omitted.
|
<BASE MAP.CONCEPT3D.COM URL> |
This will be the root URL. Most always map.concept3d.com |
|
<MAP ID> |
The Client MAP ID |
|
<name_of_category_in_sidebar> |
This is the Display name for the Dynamic Category. It will appear in the sidebar, at the bottom. If you would like a space in the category name, use %20. As an example: test%20category |
|
<concept3d_id_or_location_reference_id> |
There are two types of Identifiers that are capable of being used. The first is the default location ID created by the CMS. The second is using the reference ID field within the location field. |
|
<icon> |
This will only be included if you have custom icons in addition to the default. If this is the case, we will provide the list of indexes once the icons are added. |
|
<category_checked> |
If you’d like the category to be checked by default, use a <1> here. If the Dynamic Category is checked (1) and expanded, or if it is collapsed. |
|
<use_concept3d_or_reference_id> |
if you append :r to the end, you are using the reference ID’s or Location ID’s from <campusbird_id_or_location_reference_id> URL:0:1:1 :0 = Default “Star” location pin :1 = Category Checked :1 = Category expanded
