Usage

The Document List allows for documnets to be uploaded and displayed in a simple format for users to view.

The component allows for documents from the Media Library to be added to a page which will be displayed as a table. The date the document was added will automatically be added to the table, and the file type (eg PDF) and file size can optionally be displayed.

Do:

  • Display the file type (also called Mime type) so a user knows what document to expect
  • Display the file size so a user knows how large the file is. This will allow them to decide if they wish to download the document
  • Ensure that documents are accessible prior to uploading them into the Media Library
  • Compress the file size as much as possible to allow users to download quickly

Don't:

  • Upload more than 10 documents to a list. For larger lists, consider adding multiple lists and use Accordions to break the lists into categories
