Associated content on your page | HCL Digital Experience

Web content associations combine portal pages with content that is stored in web content libraries. The content explorer provides you with a quick way to see your content associations, manage these associations, and switch content associations.

For example, you might create translated versions of your content items. Rather than placing all translated versions in the same web content library, you might create a library for each language that you support. Within your library, you can use site areas to further organize your content.

From content explorer, you can click the Associated Content drop-down menu to see a list of content associations for your page.
For each association in your list, you can view the library name, along with the site area name.
