1. Creating the Content Map
The process should be quite inntuiative within the software and the software comes with adequate instructions on how to create the content map. However please follow the guidlines below when creating links to WikiVet content as page names need to be used rather than the pages URL.
Creating links to WikiVet articles
1. On the topic right hand click the label and select ‘Add web address’.
2. In the dialog box put your WikiVet page name into the ‘Resource name box’ and Web address’ box and click ‘Ok’.
3. Do this for all the labels on your map.
2. Export the Content Map as a Web Page
From an open Cmap :
1. Click File, then Export Cmap As, then Web Page...
2. You will now see the "Export Cmap as Web Page" window
- The file name will default to the name of your Cmap
- Choose the location on your computer to save the web page to
- Tip: The program 'Content Map Converter' browses the desktop by default, so saving the web page there will make things easier
- Click Save when ready.
3. Your Cmap has now been saved as a web page on your computer in the location you specified. There will be three files in the location
- The .html file with the name specified in the Save window
- A .jpg file, this is the image of the Cmap
- CmapToolsTrademark.gif, this is IHMC's trademark image (this image is not required)
