Page Editor

As mentioned earlier, Page Editor panel won’t be displayed for a content that can’t be rendered, such as Folder, Media, or a Shortcut.

Page Editor will be shown but not available for a Site without at least one application that contains a template or a controller that implement rendering.

If there is at least one application, but the template was not set automatically, the dropdown with the list of available templates and controllers will appear.

The page that uses a template is locked for editing. Clicking on it, or inside the Components View will show the menu with the option to enable the editing.

A component can be selected in the page editor by clicking on it. This will highlight the selected component and show its configuration in the inspect panel. Right-clicking a component will open a context menu with various actions that can be performed on the component. These options may include Select parent, Insert another component, Inspect its configuration, Reset the component’s configuration, Remove the component, Duplicate it, and Save as fragment.

For the Fragment component, the last action will be replaced with the Detach from fragment and the Edit action will be added.

Similar to the preview mode selector in the Navigator’s Preview panel, Page Editor has its own preview mode selector located in the top-right corner of the panel. Predefined modes are Automatic (default, the best suitable mode), Media, Enonic rendering, and JSON.

Page Editor adds a new Page widget to the widget list in the Context Panel. This widget can be used to switch between different templates and controllers for the current content and manage components on the page.

When the Content form is collapsed (with the icon in the menu toolbar), the Page Components tree will automatically undock and switch into floating mode.

This view can be collapsed with the icon in the view header and the tree will be docked inside the vertical menu toolbar on the left. Clicking the icon will reopen the view again.
