Components

Components are a form-based type of reusable content that simplify entering information into complex design elements. When a component is placed on a page, it acts as a form for you to enter information into. Then that information is placed in the source code of the component and added to the page.

Once created, a component is launched, making it available for use on pages. Components are like assets in that changing the original item affects the pages it is placed on, but also like snippets in that they allow for on-page editing.

Things to Know

  • The same component can be added to a page multiple times, with unique form content for each instance.
  • If you revert a page with a component added to it, the content entered into the component is reverted as well.
  • If you use the Source Code Tab inside of the editor, everything inside of the '~' symbols is part of the component. Editing or deleting any part of this code can disable or break your component.
