You can create a new Component based on a Content Type and, if you are authorized to do so, add it to the webpage yourself.
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, 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 yourself. Instead, you create a Component that is then added to this webpage for you.
The library slides in on the left, showing a list of Content Types.
- Pick the Content Type that represents the type of content you want to create. Now do one of the following:
- Drag the Content Type from the library onto a valid drop location on the webpage to insert the new Component in that location.
- Click Choose to insert the new Component in a default location on the webpage (the top or bottom). If your webpage consists of regions, do not use this option.
A popup appears, prompting you for a title for this new Component.
- Type a title and click Create and Insert Content.
The webpage gets updated and the new Component appears in the selected position.
- Fill in the fields of the Component on the webpage.
Results
You have created a new Component and added it to the current webpage.
