# Building a Directory Webiste Building a directory website can be more complex than building a normal websites. We need to deal with all the pages, plus all the directory items and categories. Here is a quick list of what needs to be done. More information is available in the documentation. ## DNN or RocketCDS Installation Create an installation (AppService) of DNN or RocketCDS. **DNN** [https://docs.dnncommunity.org/content/getting-started/setup/requirements/index.html](https://docs.dnncommunity.org/content/getting-started/setup/requirements/index.html) **RocketCDS** [https://docs.rocket-cds.org/installation](https://docs.rocket-cds.org/installation) ## Module Installation **Skip this step if you have used RocketCDS.** *(RocketCDS automatically installs all the required modules.)* Install all the RocketModules needed. Here is a minimal list. ``` 0_DNNrocket_*.*.*_Install.zip RocketContentAPI_*.*.*_Install.zip RocketContentMod_*.*.*_Install.zip RocketDirectoryAPI_*.*.*_Install.zip RocketDirectoryMod_*.*.*_Install.zip RocketWebpUtils_*.*.*_Install.zip xRocketEndInstall.zip ``` ## Page Creation The pages you need in the wesbite depends on what you need. For this example we will only use a "Home" page and a "List" page. - Create a page call "Catalog". - The "Home" page, should alreay be in the menu.

AppThemes are sets of templates that create the design and admin UI for the website. *Usually this is done automatically, but it is good practise to ensure you have the correct templates.* [https://docs.rocket-cds.org/integration/installing-appthemes](https://docs.rocket-cds.org/integration/installing-appthemes) - Add RocketContent to Home Page and pick an AppTheme you want to use. - Add RocketDirectory to the [CATDIR1] page. ## Setup Directory System - Hover over the RocketDirectory Module and click the admin icon.  - Go into "Admin", select AppTheme "Products" and save. *(The system will keep asking for the admin settings if you do not do this.)* - Add some products. - Add some categories.
