Content element "Opening hours / consultation hours"

Instructions with exercise

About the content element

You can use the opening hours / consultation hours to display contact details and opening hours clearly arranged in columns.

Use:

  • Displaying the opening hours of an institution
  • Display of a person's consultation hours
  • Display of address and contact details
  • The data can be displayed both horizontally and vertically
  • The horizontal view of the element is designed for a screen width of 75% (recommended position: end of page)
  • The vertical view of the element is designed for a screen width of 25% (recommended position: to the right of the content)

Web vs. HIS

What contact details should be on the website?

Use the opening hours element to provide contact information for advice centres, service points or secretariats.
Please linkindividuals directly to their business card in the HIS.
For an overview of the team's contact details, link to the organizational unit's page in the HIS.

The central contact directory at RPTU (Kaiserslautern and Landau) is https://www.kis.uni-kl.de.
As all institutions have to maintain it, please avoid duplicate entries to reduce errors.

Note: KIS still uses (as of Dec. '24) an older domain and an outdated design. However, a modernized successor is in the works - so the central contact directory will continue to exist.

Alternative design for team pages

Instead of creating a separate contact directory, you can also list key topics or project affiliations on the team page alongside photos.
Link the business card in KIS to create a more interesting and useful presentation.

Step by step

Illustrated instructions

Step 1: Creating the opening hours/ consultation hours element

To create the element, click on the "+ content icon" in the editing area of the target page. Then select the "Opening hours / consultation hours" element under the "Typical page content" tab. The editing menu for the element will then open automatically.

Step 2: Assigning the heading

First assign a heading under the "General" tab. Then define the type/layout of the heading.

Notes on the heading layout: The layout determines the size of the heading, with layout 1 being the largest and layout 6 the smallest. In Typo3, the "Standard" layout is preset by default; this corresponds to layout 2. If you select the "Hidden" layout, the heading is only visible in the backend and therefore remains hidden from site visitors. Use layout 1 only once per page, this improves the search engine ranking of your site!

Step 3: Configuration of the element

In the "Extension options" area under the "General" tab, you can enter the relevant opening hours/ consultation hours.

1. under "Contact person/address" you can enter the name and address of the relevant institution/person.

2. under "Contact details" you can add a corresponding telephone number, fax number and e-mail address.

3. under "Opening hours/consultation hours" you can insert the corresponding opening hours/consultation hours.

4. if you select the "Vertical output" option, the element is output vertically instead of horizontally.
