Lists Tab

This tab contains the names of all the lists in the currently selected section.

A list is an ordered list of content items that are related in some way (a list of articles related to an ongoing news issue, for example). They can be used to create a collection of summaries that can appear in several locations but be maintained in one place. You can, for example set up a section page in which item 1 from a particular list appears in one location, item 1 and 2 in a second location and items 1 to 5 in a third location. You can then subsequently update all these locations in a single operation by replacing list item 1 with a new story.

To open a list for editing, double-click on it, or select it and press Enter. The list will then be displayed in an editor tab in the work area. For information about editing lists, see Using A List Editor.

To rename a list, open it for editing (see above), modify the Name field and save your changes.

To create a new list:

1. Right-click anywhere in the list of lists.

2. Select Create new list... from the displayed menu.

3. Enter a name for the new list and click OK in the displayed dialog.

To delete a list, select it and then select Edit > Delete selected item or press Delete.
