CMS 10.6 Adding List Items via In-Context Editing


Users can add list items to existing list elements via In-Context Editing (ICE) mode.

To add list items to existing list elements via ICE:
  1. Access ICE mode. See Accessing ICE Mode for details.
  2. Scroll to the list element that will contain the new list item within the Edit tab workspace.
    Note
    The list element icon List Element Iconin the header of a list element indicates where a list starts within the page fields structure. Icons nested within the list element indicate the list items and their item type (for example, the gear icon Component Element Icon indicates a component type list item).
    Bars (blue) display within the list element to indicate where you can add list items.

    If bars display within list items, then the bar indicates where users can add a content tray to an existing list item in a component list element. See CMS 10.6 ICE Content Trays for details.

  3. Hover over the bar where you want to add the list item, and select Click here to add new list item when the text displays.
