Save Page to Content Repository

By default, web pages are not available to be linked to from Content Overview or Dynamic Content Overview content elements. In order to make a web page selectable from these content elements, a "media page" must be created. A "media page" is essentially a reference to a web page that is saved in the Content Repository and which allows a page to be treated in the same way that a media item is and also allows it to have the same metadata (tags, lead text and a lead image).


Info

In XperienCentral versions R31 and lower, there is only one version of a
