JSON structures
content-plain
Default content type. Used in most standard cases. Provides a Heading and content block underneath.
{
"contentType": "content-plain",
"heading": "Text here",
"content": "Text here."
}
fun-fact
Used for fun facts. Provides a Heading and content block.
{
"contentType": "fun-fact",
"heading": "29%",
"content": "Proportion of MBAs employed at or above the board level within six to ten years of graduating. Source: The Association of MBAs 2010 Career Survey"
}
content-plain-images-triplecrown
used specifically for content to display the triple crown association images. Normally uses a shared object, but sometimes has some variation.
Either use the block below, or link the asset 342525 in the appropriate place.
{
"heading" : "International recognition",
"contentType" : "content-plain-images-triplecrown",
"content" : "Victoria's MBA programme is accredited to the British-based <a href='http://www.mbaworld.com/'>Association of MBAs (AMBA)</a>, an internationally recognised global standard for all MBA programmes.\nVictoria Business School is also one of just 75 business schools worldwide that hold the 'Triple Crown' of international business education accreditations. You can be confident your degree will stand up against the best around the world.\n<a href='http://www.victoria.ac.nz/vbs/about/welcome/accreditation'>Find out more about accreditations and what they mean for you.</a>",
"images" : [{
"imageAssetId" : "340052",
"imageSrc" : "%globals_asset_url:340052^json_encode%",
"altText" : "EQUIS Logo",
"linkTitle" : "",
"link" : "",
"linkUrl": ""
}, {
"imageAssetId" : "340057",
"imageSrc" : "%globals_asset_url:340057^json_encode%",
"altText" : "AMBA Logo",
"linkTitle" : "",
"link" : "",
"linkUrl" : ""
}, {
"imageAssetId" : "340058",
"imageSrc" : "%globals_asset_url:340058^json_encode%",
"altText" : "AASCB Logo",
"linkTitle" : "",
"link" : "",
"linkUrl" : ""
}]
}
video
Embeds a video. Currently only supports youtube videos. Make sure that the videoLink value is only the 'key' part of the video url. For example, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYP5hSRiqBw becomes NYP5hSRiqBw.
The heading2 value was originally provided to supply sub-headings but is not currently used anywhere.
The content value provides a caption to go underneath the video.
videoImage is the image that will be used as the snapshot/preview that will display when the page first loads. Simply replace the ASSETID value in the code with the asset id of the image once it has been loaded into squiz.
{
"contentType": "video",
"videoType": "youtube",
"heading1": "Developing managers and leaders",
"heading2": "",
"content": "",
"videoLink": "NYP5hSRiqBw",
"videoImage": "%globals_asset_url:ASSETID^json_encode%"
}
important-info
Currently only used in undergraduate degrees pages. (For example in tourism-management)
On requirements pages, the last two values are nearly always:
- The academic [Calendar] is the authoritative source of programme and course information.
- If you have questions talk to a <a href='%globals_asset_url:186845%'>Liaison Officer</a>. If you’re already a student here, contact a <a href='%globals_asset_url:59208%#student-advisers'>student adviser</a>.
With the href for the "student adviser" replaced with the appropriate faculty for that degree. See WIP-1390 - Getting issue details... STATUS for the appropriate asset number and anchor link to use.
{
"contentType" : "important-info",
"heading" : "Important information ",
"content" : [
"If you are transferring from another university and applying for direct entry into the second year you'll need to supply a portfolio along with an official academic transcript. These must reach the <a href='http://www.victoria.ac.nz/fad/about/contact'> Faculty of Architecture and Design Office </a> by 10 December.",
"<a href='Portfolio'>http://www.victoria.ac.nz/fad/pdf/portfolio-requirements-2012.pdf'>Portfolio requirements</a> (PDF 284 KB)",
"The academic [Calendar] is the authoritative source of programme and course information.",
"If you have questions talk to a <a href='%globals_asset_url:186845%'>Liaison Officer</a>. If you’re already a student here, contact a <a href='%globals_asset_url:59208%#student-advisers'>student adviser</a>."
]
}
content-plain-links
Similar to the content-plain object, but allows buttons for linking. We try and use this where possible instead of using inline links.
An important distinction between "links" and "externalLinks" - Graphically, "links" will be displayed with a big blue button, while "externalLinks" will display a bullet list of links with an 'external link' symbol next to it - 
{
"contentType" : "content-plain-links",
"heading" : "",
"content" : "",
"links" : [
{
"linkText" :"Text",
"linkTitle" :"Text",
"link" :"%globals_asset_url:ASSETID^json_encode%"
}
],
"externalLinks": [{
"linkText" : "Text",
"linkTitle" : "Text",
"link" : "http://www.careers.govt.nz/"
}]
}
content-facts
This is used exclusively on the degree-about pages. They supply the data for the "Level of study", "Length of full-time study", and "Useful secondary school subjects" contents.
This block does not change here. If these values are to change, they need to be done in the metadata of the degree. If this block changes from what is contained here it will most likely break things. Please don't do that... :(
{
"contentType" : "content-facts",
"heading" : "",
"content" : {
"levelOfStudy": {
"contentType" : "levelOfStudy",
"heading" : "%asset_metadata_ProgrammeId^as_asset:asset_metadata_postOrUndergradHeading^json_encode%",
"content" : "%asset_metadata_ProgrammeId^as_asset:asset_metadata_postOrUndergrad^json_encode%"
},
"studyLength": {
"contentType" : "studyLength",
"heading" : "%asset_metadata_ProgrammeId^as_asset:asset_metadata_LengthOfFulltimeStudyHeading^json_encode%",
"content" : "%asset_metadata_ProgrammeId^as_asset:asset_metadata_LengthOfFulltimeStudy^json_encode%",
"contentSub" : "%asset_metadata_ProgrammeId^as_asset:asset_metadata_LengthOfFulltimeStudySubHeading^json_encode%"
},
"fees": {
"contentType" : "fees",
"heading" : "%asset_metadata_ProgrammeId^as_asset:asset_metadata_CourseFeesHeadingOverride^json_encode%",
"content" : "%asset_metadata_ProgrammeId^as_asset:asset_metadata_EstimatedYearlyCourseFees^json_encode%"
},
"usefulSubjects": {
"contentType" : "usefulSubjects",
"heading" : "%asset_metadata_ProgrammeId^as_asset:asset_metadata_UsefulSecondarySchoolSubjectsHeading^json_encode%",
"content" : "%asset_metadata_ProgrammeId^as_asset:asset_metadata_UsefulSecondarySchoolSubjects^json_encode%"
}
}
}
wellington-promo
Also known as the 'Why Wellington" block. Used to provide a short promotion on why Wellington is such a great place to study. Normally the only thing changing is the content in "content" and sometimes the "heading". If the heading is not supplied, it should be left as "Why Wellington".
Note, for postgrad wellington-promo's, the asset id for the imageId and links might be changing. If so, please get Andrew Bredenkamp to update this part of the documentation.
{
"heading" : "Why Wellington",
"contentType" : "wellington-promo",
"content" : "",
"imageLink" : "%globals_asset_url:327370^json_encode%",
"imageId" : "327370",
"links" : [
{
"linkText" :"Why Wellington",
"linkTitle" :"Why Wellington",
"link" :"%globals_asset_url:248382^json_encode%"
}
]
}
