When you add content to your site and publish it, it's saved as a custom record of one of these types. You can view or edit the record, and any edits you make are immediately visible on the site. For example, if you notice a misspelled word in a piece of text, you can edit the custom record to correct it, and the fix appears instantly.

Each content custom record also has a CMS Content record that controls how and when the content displays on your site. See CMS Contents Record.

Note:

If you create custom content types, a custom record is created for each custom content type. See Site Management Tools Custom Content Type.

To view the custom record for SMT content:

  1. Go to Customization > List, Records, & Fields > Record Types.

  2. In the Record Types list, locate the CMS Content Type record for the content you want to view.

    The core content type records are CMS_HTML, CMS_IMAGE, CMS MERCHZONE, CMS_MERCHZONETWO, and CMS_TEXT. You may also have a content type record for any custom content type you enable.

  3. Click List for the content type record to see all the content for that record type.
