Description:

Here are some of the issues that came up, while we were working on: http://cyanobacteria.myspecies.info: 1 ) Is it possible to add an extra tab (eg toxicity data) where the information is displayed for each strain, besides the already available tabs: overview, descriptions, media, literature, maps, specimens (http://cyanobacteria.myspecies. info/taxonomy/term/284). If not possible, where we could add this kind of information and how?

2 ) After we upload the template for the taxonomy, we edit the genera and the species to be in italics (using ), and as a result in tab descriptions, it appears: <I>ANABAENA</I> AUTH 0899 (http://cyanobacteria.myspecies.info/taxonomy/term/274/descriptions) and also in the navigator (Home »Anabaena AUTH 0899» Cyanobacteria »Nostocales» Nostocaceae <i>Anabaena</i>» Anabaena AUTH 0899). Please see attached picture (red arrows show the "bug"); this appears in all our pages (strains). Is there a way to fix it?

3) Is it possible to make a total map with all the cyanobacterial strains (specimens) and the locations that they were isolated from?

4) Is it possible to set the zoom in-zoom out on a map, since creating a location is already set to zoom in.

Here are some of the issues that came up, while we were working on: http://cyanobacteria.myspecies.info: 1 ) Is it possible to add an extra tab (eg toxicity data) where the information is displayed for each strain, besides the already available tabs: overview, descriptions, media, literature, maps, specimens (http://cyanobacteria.myspecies. info/taxonomy/term/284). If not possible, where we could add this kind of information and how? By adding a Toxicity content type, you can specify that it is displayed on its own tab, or on an existing tab (further help available at http://help.scratchpads.eu/w/Customize_taxon_pages). 2 ) After we upload the template for the taxonomy, we edit the genera and the species to be in italics (using ), and as a result in tab descriptions, it appears: <I>ANABAENA</I> AUTH 0899 (http://cyanobacteria.myspecies.info/taxonomy/term/274/descriptions) and also in the navigator (Home »Anabaena AUTH 0899» Cyanobacteria »Nostocales» Nostocaceae <i>Anabaena</i>» Anabaena AUTH 0899). Please see attached picture (red arrows show the "bug"); this appears in all our pages (strains). Is there a way to fix it? In a word, no. I would suggest not adding the italic tags, and instead let us know where the names are not being displayed as expected. 3) Is it possible to make a total map with all the cyanobacterial strains (specimens) and the locations that they were isolated from? Yes, this should be possible by using the views module (http://help.scratchpads.eu/w/Edit_view), although if you're unsure how to get started, let us know and we will do our best to help. 4) Is it possible to set the zoom in-zoom out on a map, since creating a location is already set to zoom in. Not at the moment I'm afraid.
