Creating a Page Story for the top of a listing page
Previously the content in the section in the red box above could only be edited in either the "Page Description" or "Long Page Description" fields. This however limited the content you could put in this section, for example you couldn't add links, or any other kind of formatted text. This is fine in most cases but now you have more options, using the Page story method you will now be able to add formatted content to this area.
There are three options that can be used for this top information:
-
Page Description
This field is used by default if it contains content and it most cases it does. You can find the Page Description field in the page settings of the relevant page. -
Long Page Description
This field is used if you would like to add more plain text to the top of the page, This field can be found in the page settings of the relevant page, if there is content in both the "Page Description" and "Long Page Description" the "Long Page Description" content will be used. -
Adding a page story to the page settings
This method allows you to create a story using all of the available story editing methods, which you can then add to the page settings of your page. Please see below for more information on how to do this.
