Adding an HTML element to an item | HCL Digital Experience

You add an HTML element to a site area or content item when you want a section of HTML to be used for a specific site area or content item.

Before you begin

Note: You can add an element to a content item only if the manage elements feature is enabled in the authoring template that is used by the content item.

Procedure

  1. Open or create a site area or content item.
  2. Click Manage Elements.
  3. Select HTML as the element type.
  4. Enter a name. Do not use double-byte and non-ASCII characters.
  5. Enter a display title to use as the title of the element displayed indexes and forms.
  6. If you have created a text provider plug-in for a multi-locale site, you can also select the text provider and enter a key to look up a string from the selected text provider. The text provider displays a different display title for each language it is configured for. The text that is entered in the Display Title field is only used if an appropriate display title is not available from the selected text provider, or if the text provider is not available.
  7. Click OK. The HTML element is added to your form.
  8. Go to the HTML element you created.
  9. Enter HTML in the HTML field.
  10. Save the item form.
