Step-by-Step

  1. Log in to WordPress as an Administrator.
  2. Go to Knowledge Base → Add New Article.
  3. Set a clear title, e.g.:
    • Inventory – Volunteer Kitchen Fridge
    • Inventory – Studio
  4. In the content area, insert the shortcode in this form:
    • For a Zone:

[ inventory zone=”studio”]

For a Subzone:

[ inventory subzone=”fridge”]

(We added empty spaces after the bracket to suppress funcionality here.)

  1. ⚠️ Important:
    • No extra spaces in or after the brackets.
    • Names must exactly match the slug in the location hierarchy (studio, fridge, etc.).
    • Values must always be in double quotes.
  2. Optionally, add a short intro text above the shortcode, e.g.:
    “This page shows all inventory for the Volunteer Kitchen Fridge.”
  3. In the Page settings (right-hand sidebar):
    • Parent: set to Inventory Overview (if you use a parent page).
    • Visibility: Public.
    • Template: Standard.
  4. Click Publish.
  5. Test the page:
    • You should see the inventory list (if any exist).
    • At the bottom, the add-new item form should appear.
    • If the form does not appear → check that you used the correct slug for zone or subzone.

Naming & Structure

  • Always prefix with “Inventory – …” for clarity.
  • Group pages in the WP menu or KB under Inventory.
  • Keep naming consistent with the physical layout.
