  • Hi ,

     

    You would have to include the custom content in your page. You can do this by ,

    Studio > Page

    Left Nav > Custom Content

    Choose the custom content (based on the number) that you would like to include ,and place it accordingly.

    Now you should be able to see the content.

    The steps that you have done in admin is to define your content. The above process would place it wherever necessary.

     

    Thanks,

  • bhupen I can't see anywhere in your screenshot where you have added the custom content 20. Moreover, this seems to be a case where you have additional custom contents, as lithium provides only 9 custom contents by default. So you have to add this in the XML tab, like:

     

      <component id="common.widget.custom-content" name="20"/>

     

    It will then reflect on the front end, let me know if this helps.

  • bhupen  You cannot name a Custom Content, there are only 9 custom contents, but as I told you, it seems you have additional custom contents added from your Lithium community manager. The name you add on the title field will be displayed on the front end, it will not be the name of your custom content. You add custom content from studio, where they're listed under the Custom Contents tab.

     

    In this case, go to Studio > Page > from custom content, drag required Custom Content on to the page, and save.

    Following steps have been followed for the custom component:
    1. Made custom component SCEA-HELDEVIL-MASH on studio
    2. Assign custom compnent in Page at admin
    3. Selected custom compenent in content section for particular board heldevil and fill the values.
    4. Save

    After the above steps its not displaying at front end.

    Correct me if some steps is missing:

  • Steps:

    Go to studio > page > add custom CONTENT and not the custom COMPONENT to the page you want to.

    If you added custom CONTENT 1 to your page, then from Admin, go to Content > Custom Content > from drop down, select the custom Content 1 and add the content. SAVE.
