Content Repo (Example: Banner)

In this instruction we will explain the function of the "Page Content" area or also called Content Repo. In this area you can create certain content, which you can then insert into elements in the Content segment. This includes contact persons, key visuals, partners and banners.


 

Content Repo (Example: Banner)

Contacts, key visuals, partners and banners.

1. Create a Banner

To select one of the four categories above and create one, select the Create action in "Seiteninhalte" (or Content Repo).
You can do this by clicking on the three dots with the left mouse button (as shown in the picture).

Now you can choose which content you want to create. Here we show you the example "Banner". With contact, key visuals and banners, it works the same way.

 

 

2.  Name and Publish

This will be the folder where the Banner can be published

  1. Name this folder.
  2. Add an iFrame
  3. Click on the prepared iFrame
  4. Now save and publish the file

You can now create several subordinate elements through the Create action and design them according to your wishes.

in this example, I will insert a new Banner.

  8. Finally, add the pages where you want to display the banner.
  9. Now you can save and publish the banner

 

 

4. Create more Banners if desired

If desired, you can now create additional banners under the Banner file. After that you can insert the Banner to the Website you want.

If you have several banner elements, you can set them to change after a certain time (e.g. 10 seconds).

You can now find them in the Content Repo section (Seiteninhalt).

 

5. Add the element "Banner"

  1. Insert a new column (Here you can see how)
  2. Click on "Add Content"
  3. Add the element Partner (by clicking on the button "Banner")

  1. Click Add to insert the created folder (banner).
  2. A new tab opens, click on Banner (in the "Seiteninhalt" area).
  3. Choose the same format as when creating the banner
  4. Finally, you can set the number of seconds at which the banner should change (if you have several banners).
  5. Then click on "Update"
  6. Now you can save and publish the Website

Now you can view the result via the preview button and make any changes in the content repo.

 

8. Final tip

As a final tip, it is important to know that the possible categories in the Content Repo are named exactly the same as the elements in which the created content is inserted. For example, the category in the content repo is called "Contacts" and the element in the content area is called "Contact", etc.
