Tenders


RS Council

The Tenders feature has been created in order for you to list and publish Tenders in a standardised feature and display them in an orderly way on the website.

Adding a Tender

  1. Login to your website to the WP Admin Dashboard
  2. From the Admin Menu (left side) click on Tenders > Add New

The following information should be set in order to get the best results on your website:

TitleThis should be set to the title of the Tender, no additional information is required
ContentThe content of the Tender should be where you specify the criteria/requirement for the Tender, including expectations, terms and any other details that are appropriate to include publically for the successful execution of the Tender.
Starting DateThis is the intended Start date that the successful supplier for this Tender should be prepared to being their contract with the Council
Closing DateThis is the closing date for the tender, when further applications to tender for suppliers will end.
Online SubmissionsThis states whether you will accept Online Submissions, and will activate the ability for you to enter a Form on your Tender page for Suppliers to submit their application.
Online Form ShortcodeThis allows you to design your own form and enter the Shortcode of the form in here for it to be used and output onto the Tender page.

Layouts

The Layouts allows you to set the look/design of the pages displaying lists & details of your posts, and can be set in WP Admin > Tenders > Settings.

Single Layouts

Default

The Default Single Layout is a simple layout, with the Title and Content on the left side of the page, and a sidebar on the right with the Closing Date and Form Submission (if enabled).

Archive Layouts

Default

The Default Layout for Tenders is a relatively simple list of the Title, Closing Date/Time and an excerpt of the Content. The Featured image is not used for Tenders, and the Title is a link to the single Tender details.
