A Flexible Way To Classify, Manage And Market Your Stories
Set up your Most Popular Stories and a Story-wide topic index
Introduction
Facing a characterless, chronological list of my articles when I click on “Stories”, has spurred me to formulate and implement a layer of structure over this lifeless list.
Organizing my articles into separately identifiable categories or topics, that are relatively easy to maintain, has been a huge boon to my productivity and reader presentation.
Task 1
I initially approached this task from a desire to create a collection of My Most Popular Stories, and pinning (a link to) this collection at the top of my profile page. However, as the collection would vary over time (I limited it to the top 10), it needed to be easily kept up-to-date.
Task 2
Having completed that task, I was then keen to expand the concept, and develop a set of collections, each collection entry representing Stories pertaining to a given category or topic. I then pinned (a link to) this set at position 2 of my profile page. Again, this set needed to be easily updated.
