Enabling inline editing for content items | HCL Digital Experience

You can enable inline editing for content item fields in your site design.

About this task

Inline editing is enabled separately for each of the following content item fields:
  • Name
  • Title
  • Description
  • Author and owner
  • Published date
  • Expiry Date
  • General Date 1
  • General Date 2
  • Each element that is stored in the content item.
You can enable inline editing in the design in two ways:
  • Use editable element or editable property tags in presentation templates or component designs.
  • Enable inline editing for new item creation with an authoring tool component.
Note to developers: When you create a custom theme, you must include a reference to the wcm_inplaceEdit module to enable in-place editing in the custom theme.
