Title & Tags

• Title - The title of the page is shown in various locations. For example, the Websites tab list and the Sites card/list views.

  • This is a mandatory field.

• Tags - Here you can add, or remove tags from the page by updating the list in the selection box.

  • After selecting a tag is it listed below the selection box. You can remove a tag from this list using the x.

  • A completely new tag can be entered by typing the name in an empty selection box.

    • The new tag is created when you press enter.
    • The new tag will then be shown with a small star on the right indicating that it is a new tag.

  • With the drop-down functionality you can select from existing tags.

  • An x appears when you mouse-over a tag entry in the selection box, which can be used to remove that tag for this page.

  • For more information about tags, see Using Tags.

• Hide in Navigation - Indicates whether the page is shown or hidden in the page navigation of the resulting site.

Branding

Apply a consistent brand identity across pages by appending a brand slug to each page title. This functionality requires use of the Page Component from release 2.14.0 or later of the Core Components.

• Brand Slug

  • Override - Check to define the brand slug on this page.
    • The value is inherited by any child pages unless they also have their Override values set.
  • Override value - The text of the brand slug to be appended to the page title.
    • The value is appended to the page title after a pipe character such as “Cycling Tuscany | Always ready for the WKNDâ€�

HTML ID

• ID - HTML ID to apply to the component.

More Titles and Description

• Page Title - A title to be used on the page. Typically used by title components. If empty, the Title is used.
• Navigation Title - You can specify a separate title for use in the navigation (for example, if you want something more concise). If empty, the Title is used.
• Caption - A subtitle for use on the page.
• Description - Your description of the page, its purpose, or any other details you want to add.

On/Off Time

• On Time - The date and time at which the published page is made visible (rendered) on the publish environment. The page must be published, either manually or by pre-configured auto-replication.

  • If already published (manually) this page is kept dormant (hidden) until rendering at the specified time.
  • If not published, and configured for auto-replication, the page is automatically published, then rendered, at the specified time.
  • If not published, and not configured for auto-replication, the page is not automatically published, so a 404 is seen when an attempt to access the page is made.

• Off Time - Similar to and often used in combination with On Time, this defines the time at which the published page is hidden on the publish environment.

• Leave these fields (On Time and Off Time) empty for pages you want to publish immediately and have available on the publish environment until they are deactivated (the normal scenario).

Vanity URL

• Lets you enter a vanity URL for this page, which can allow you to have a shorter and/or more expressive URL.
• For example, if the Vanity URL is set to welcome to the page identified by the path /v1.0/startpage for the website http://example.com, then http://example.com/welcome would be the vanity URL of http://example.com/content/v1.0/startpage

• Add - Select to show a field to define a vanity URL for the page.

  • Select again to add multiple.
  • Select the Remove icon to delete the vanity URL.

• Redirect Vanity URL - Indicates whether you want the page to use the vanity URL.

Settings

• Language - The page language

• Language Root - Must be checked if the page is the root of a language copy

• Redirect - Indicates the page to which this page should automatically redirect with an HTML 302 Found status.

  • Permanent Redirect - When checked, the page redirects to the target path provided along with an HTML 301 Moved Permanently status.

• Design - Indicates whether the page is shown or hidden in the page navigation of the resulting site

• Alias - Specifies an alias to be used with this page

  • For example, if you define an alias of private for the page /content/wknd/us/en/magazine/members-only, then this page can also be accessed via /content/wknd/us/en/magazine/private
  • Creating an alias sets the sling:alias property on the page node, which only impacts the resource, not the repository path.
  • Pages accessed by aliases in the editor cannot be published. Publish options in the editor are only available for pages accessed via their actual paths.
  • See Localized page names under SEO and URL Management Best Practices.
