Add one or more existing Components to a webpage if you know of a Component or Components in the system that you would like to add to the current webpage.
Procedure
- On an editable webpage, start editing by clicking the pencil button in the top right corner.
- In the Home tab of the ribbon toolbar, click the bottom part of the Insert Content button and from the suboptions, select Insert Content.
If your Home tab does not contain an Insert Content button but instead a Create Content button, you are not authorized to add Components to this webpage.
The library slides in from the left, showing a list of Folders and Components.
- Navigate the Folder structure until you see the Component you want to insert, and select it. If you know (part of) the name of the item you want to insert, you can also click the Search button at top left and enter it, using the * and ? wildcard characters where necessary, into the search box that appears.
- To select multiple Components, do one of the following:
- To select multiple Components that are displayed next to each other in the Library panel, select the first one and then hold down SHIFT as you select the last one.
- To select multiple Components that are displayed together in the Library panel, but are not next to each other, select the check box in front of each Component you want to insert. Alternatively, you can also select one of the Components with your mouse and then hold down CTRL as you select each of the other ones.
- Do one of the following:
- Drag the Component from the library onto a valid drop location on the webpage to insert the Component in that location. If you have selected multiple Components, drag any selected Component to add all selected Components.
- Click Insert to insert the selected Component or Components in a default location on the webpage (the top or bottom). If your webpage includes regions, this option is not recommended; drag and drop the Component or Components instead.
Experience Manager inserts the Component or Components at the appropriate location.
Results
