Adding new Tripos papers

First, log on to website.

Second, go to 'Content' - 'Add Content' -'Tripos examination papers'

Notes:

  • Format of title: paper, year: Title (e.g. 1P1, 2006: Thermofluid mechanics). First letter of title in uppercase & rest in lowercase.
  • To add new course code: Go to 'Structure' - 'Taxonomy' - 'Course codes for Tripos...' - 'Add term'
  • Reduce size of large pdfs (scanned documents): Use Acrobat - 'Document' - 'Optimize scanned pdf'

Adding new codes and new years

If a new tripos paper is added, the relevant code must be added to the 'Course codes for Tripos Examination Papers repository' taxonomy. 

If a new tripos year is added, the relevant codes must be added to the 'Years for past papers' taxonomy.

Further, the selection of codes, or the selection of years, available under each view, e.g. http://teaching.eng.cam.ac.uk/past-papers/part-iib  must be updated to show this code too. 

This can be done by clicking the 'cog' at the top right of the page (taking you to a page such as http://teaching.eng.cam.ac.uk/admin/structure/views/view/past_exam_papers/edit/default), and, under 'FILTER CRITERIA', clicking on 'Content: Course code (exposed)' and selecting the codes that should be available, or clicking on 'Content: Year (exposed)' and selecting the years that should be available.
