The Layout Manager's  Pages tab provides functionality to manage the structure of the site.

The Left-hand side of this tab contains two lists:

• Component Store
• Component Bank

This provides a two stage 'delivery mechanism' for adding compoents in to the website tree. There are two stages to this process to provide the flexibility to restrict some administrators ability to add certain components*

The Component Store lists out the various types of component, and can be thought of as containing an infinite quantity of each component.

To make use of a component, you need to add it to the Component Bank:

1. Select the component type in the Component Store
2. Enter the quantity you want
3. Click 'Add to Component Bank'

The Component bank will then list that component name, with the quantity now available for use on the site shown in brackets after the name.

 

 

* For example, you may have created a site for a client with a set of components, and whilst you are happy for them to manipulate the site, you don't want them to add more components without paying you an extra fee.
