==Lands and Minerals Sector ePostcard Campaign==
Natural Resources Canada's Land's and Minerals Sector has launched an exciting collaborative campaign to encourage that the science and technology developments, exciting field research, and fantastic employees and partners, are properly showcased both in and out of government. Our team, the Science and Technology Liaison Office has built a program for our staff to submit their personal photos, along with some identification and a description, for display within our department and on the web. It is a pre-Comms product, which means that while we put all the pieces together, they can be used externally by other groups like our Social Media team, Web Publishing group, and more!

Started in 2016, the first pilot of ePostcards was a great success with over 75 fantastic submissions<ref>http://science.gc.ca/eic/site/063.nsf/eng/h_E6EBB690.html</ref> including slice-of-life glimpses into our programs, photographs of landscapes so beautiful they could easily be in National Geographic, to simply smiling researchers doing what they do best.

Now it's your turn. Check out these reference documents on this page, print out our take away brochure or carry card (Wallet sized!), and send us your amazing photographs!

==Navigation menus==
Examples of various menus to navigate subpages or multi-page topics.

=== Menu buttons ===
{{Template:GVUG}}
Simple to set up, easy to modify. Get the code and complete instructions [[Template:Menu-begin/doc|here]].

=== W2P style ===
{{W2P}}

The code is more complex. You may wish to use a lighter background with use the default link font style and colours. Copy the code [[:Template:W2P|from here]].

=== Horizontal navigation bar ===
{{Windsor-Detroit Tunnel POE mentoring topics}}

This works well for the bottom of a page. The code [[Template:Windsor-Detroit Tunnel POE mentoring topics|is here]].

=== Tabs ===
====Small...====

<figure-inline class="mw-default-size">[[File:Basic-tabs-capture.PNG|link=Template:Basic-tabs|220x220px]]</figure-inline>

'''NEW!''' A pretty simple template that keeps all tabbed content on a single page. [[Template:Basic-tabs|Instructions here]].

{{CFB Trenton Admin Community (tabs)|1=focus|2=linked|3=linked|4=linked|5=linked|6=linked|7=linked|8=linked|9=linked}}
</div>
Colourful, but not for the faint of heart. The tab code is contained in a template; the trancluded template has options to specify which tab is has the focus and which are linked. For each page the template is transcluded on, that page tab should be specified as the focus while others are specified as link. The template code [[:CFB Trenton Admin Community| is here]]. If you need help, you might want to contact a [[peer helper]] for assistance.

====Large(ish)...====

==Web Development Templates==
===Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)===
A style sheet or master page on which you can globally edit and format graphic elements and text common to each page of a web-site. These allow the application of a [[Common Look and Feel (CLF)]] framework that maintains a certain constant identity throughout a visitors' visit to the site. Changes made to the master (template) page are said to "cascade" down to all sub-pages (thus the term "cascading style sheets"). This type of template typically contains information about:
#font types, sizes and colours;
#the content and placement of navigation tools and sub-menus (in our case, displayed on the left hand side);
#the content and placement of tabs displayed along the top of each page;
#standard graphic headers and footers;
#copyright notices;

The '''primary benefit''' of these types of templates is that they allow the web-master to apply global changes by making a single change in one location.

A number of groups have created CSS templates for their pages, which you may use as-is or copy to a new template for modification:

* {{tl|Cco-css}}
* {{tl|AINC-INAC-css}}
* {{tl|Mbl-css}}
* {{tl|TC-css}}
* {{tl|DOJ-css}}

To use a CSS formatting template on your page (CCO's for, example), insert:

:<nowiki>{{#css:{{Cco-css}}}}</nowiki>

...into your wiki page.

===Wiki Page Scaffolds===
A scaffold is a style sheet or master page you can use to build your own page. Don't edit or write over these: copy and paste the code onto the new page as a framework from which to base your work on:

* [[NRCan action items scaffold|Action Item table]]
* [[Agenda / Record of Decision/ Action Item Scaffold|Agenda / Record of Decision/ Action Item]]
* [[Bilingual page scaffold|Bilingual page]]; see also: [[Template:Two column fr-en]]
* [[NRCan Traditional Briefing Note scaffold|Briefing Note]]
* Calendar: [[2015 calendar scaffold|2015]]
* [[Community scaffold|Community page]]; see also: [[Template:Sample community page]]
* [[Directory of Expertise scaffold|Directory of Expertise]]
* [[Template:Page - whitesmoke|Elegant page]]
* [[Template:Main_page_layout|GCpedia Main Page-style]]
* [[Meeting minutes scaffold|Meeting minutes]]
* [[:Template:Newspaper|Newspaper / Newsletter]] {{colour|red|- '''NEW!'''}}
* [[Project main page scaffold|Project]]
* [[Project charter scaffold|Project charter]]
* User Page: [[Template:Default user page|Default]], [[Template:Basic_user_profile|Basic]], [[Template:Deluxe_user_profile|Deluxe]], [[Template:User profile - Todd Lyons' style|Todd Lyons' style]], [[Template:User profile - Cedgell style|Chelsea Edgell style]] — ''See also:'' [[Help:Creating a user profile]]
* [[Policy and Governance Subcommittee Working Group Scaffold|Working Group]]
