TLC Hub SitemapHow the hub sites flow
mapping TLC-Hubs

Ten sites, one family

A map of the TLC hub estate: what each site is for, the path a person takes through it, and how the sites hand over to one another. Split the way the estate itself splits — the hubs staff sign into, and the hubs a learner moves through.

The two sections

start here

TLC Hubs — staff-facing

TLC Base, Staffbase, the Knowledge Hub, the Admin Hub, the Guides Hub and the Quality Hub. One master site owns the accounts and the roles; the rest are subdomains that trust its token.

Learner Hubs — learner-facing

The Apprenticeships Portal, the Induction Hub, the Enrolment Hub and the e-Portfolio. Four sites, one continuous journey from "is this for me?" to a finished portfolio.

The estate at a glance

who talks to whom

TLC Base sits in the middle of everything. It is the only site that takes a password, and the token it mints is what lets every subdomain to its right skip the login screen. The Apprenticeships Portal is the one site outside that arrangement, because it has to work for someone with no account at all.

Map of the TLC hub estate A user signs in at TLC Base, which issues an SSO token. That token admits them to the five staff hubs and the three learner hubs behind the SSO. Two external systems sit in the launcher but are not SSO subdomains. The public Apprenticeships Portal sits outside the SSO and feeds into the Induction Hub.

Logging out at any one of them clears the cookie and ends every session at once.

Dashed borders mark a boundary: the Quality Hub is registered and documented but has no files on disk yet, and the two systems top-right sit in the launcher without being part of the SSO.

How to read this site

The flow strip

Every hub card carries a left-to-right strip showing the path a person actually takes through it — not the folder listing, but the order the pages are meant to be met in.

The page map

Under the strip, the hub's pages grouped by section, each with the file path it lives at. An arrow in a path (news.php → news_view.php) means the first page opens the second.

Keeping it current

Everything comes from inc/data.php. Add a hub or a page there and both section pages pick it up — the templates hold no content of their own.

Where this site lives

Deliberately outside the estate it documents: this sitemap is served from c:\xampp\htdocs\sandbox\hub-sitemap, while the hubs it maps stay in TLC-Hubs. It has no database, no SSO guard and no dependency on any of them, so it keeps working with everything else switched off.
