While a Story can be any editable web object or story asset, or their combination, it is often easier to work with them when they are treated as one of two types of stories: Single or Multiple.
Single Stories
Single stories are displays that group assets together into one presentation. Most commonly this is refered to as a story in the traditional sense. Single stories may have a title and "teaser" paragraph on one page with a link to the full dipslay on a second page. It can also be displayed entirely on a page with other stories or parts of stories. The important point is that each single story is edited in StoryPage™ as a separate display.
Multiple Stories
Multiple Stories are more then one display on the same pag in a list. As opposed to Single Stories, multiple stories cannot be broken into individual assets. The entire story displays as it is entered in StoryPage™. Any type of listing is best served with this type of story display. Examples of Multiple Story Pages on a web site may be listings for Classified Ads, Service Directory, Announcements, Events Calendar, Real Estate Listings, Tours, Lodging and Restaurants, music titles, video clips, etc..
Story Assets
Story Assets are any object used to support a story display: text, image, audio-visual or other media supported by web browsers. StoryPage™ uses standard objects such as Title, subtitle, author, text, image, contact e-mail, etc., as well as non-labeled text objects that the user can set inside the application for any kind of story asset. Media displays that use other kinds of story assets, such as video or audio streaming, flash(R), avi, etc. are supported by advanced versions of the application, configured on demand by the user.
