Add, modify, or delete page components
After you create a page or subpage, you see the title of the page and the page breadcrumbs displayed in the right pane and, on the Layout tab, you see the page zones. You build your page by adding page components, which hold the content you want to deliver to your site.
When you configure page components, the available options vary according to the page type (Blank page, Detail page, or a page created From template).
For performance reasons, we recommend that the number of page components per page be kept below 200 and that you use tabs so that data is loaded when a tab is selected and not all at once. Remove unused components.
