Changing an item's folder region

Related topics

The folder region determines the overall flow of items and sub-folders. Items can also be grouped and sorted in a folder region.

You must be logged on as a folder owner or an authorized user with the appropriate folder or item-level privileges (Manage Items).

To change an item's folder region:

Note: If you are already in the folder in which you want to edit an item, skip to step 4.

  1. In the Navigator, click the Content Areas tab to navigate to Path: Content Areas.

  2. In the Name column, click the content area link that contains the item you want to work with.

  3. The content area home page (root folder) is displayed with all the sub-folder links that were chosen.

    • If necessary, click a sub-folder link to view the contents of a given folder.

    • If you do not see the folder that you want to work with, this means that you have not been granted the appropriate folder access privileges. See your content area administrator to gain access.

  4. Click Edit folder located on the main banner to switch to Edit mode.

This displays the item management tools next to all the items in the folder.

  1. In the folder area, locate the item you want to edit.

  2. Click beside the item to display the Item Manager.

  3. On the Primary tab below the Folder Region section, choose another folder region in which to display the item on the rendered page. For example, if you choose Quickpicks, the item displays at the very top of the folder region.

  1. Click OK.

Notes

  • You cannot change the folder region for sub-items as they inherit the parent item's region properties.

  • The folder region names; for example, Quickpicks, reflects the region names set in the Style Manager. If the default name is changed, the new name would be shown in the Item Wizard and Item Manager.

  • Item attributes such as Author, Description, Expiration Date, Image, New Item Indicator, and so on are displayed in the folder area only if they were chosen to display. For more information, see Choosing item attributes to display in a folder region.
