Adding or Editing Metadata |
Entering or Editing Metadata
To enter or edit a content block's metadata, follow these steps.
Warning!
You may only edit metadata of content blocks that are published, checked in, or checked out by you.
- Access the Edit Content screen for the content block whose metadata you want to enter or edit, as described in Editing a Content Block.
- Click the Metadata tab.
- The Edit Metadata screen opens with the current metadata displayed. In order to add metadata to a content block, an administrator must have created definitions for it in the language of the content block.
Note
Your screen may differ from the example below. Your system administrator determines the appearance of the Edit Metadata screen.
- Required fields are red and marked with an asterisk (*). Someone must place at least one response in such fields before the content block can be saved.
- Your system administrator may prevent you from editing a field. In this case, the field has a gray background, and you cannot place the cursor there.
- Fields may appear in two columns. In this case, the system administrator provides a list of terms that you can apply to the content block. You can only select terms from the list -- you cannot enter free text.
One column is labeled Not Included and the other Included. Move terms between lists by clicking the arrow (>> and <<). Or, move all terms between lists by clicking All >>.
- You may see a semi-colon (;) as a separator character. Use the separator character to separate items in a field.
- If default metadata were defined for a specific data type, you can click the Default button at the bottom of each field to restore it.
- Below each field is a Characters Left field, which counts the number of metadata characters. You cannot exceed the maximum (500 characters) when entering metadata information.
).The content block is now in a checked out state to you. For the changes to take effect on the Web site, check in the content and submit it into the approval chain.
