Line 6: Line 6:
A 'Page' record usually represents a webpage in TYPO3. All pages have an id-number by which they can be linked and referenced. The 'Page' record does not itself contain the content of the page - for this purpose you should create 'Page content' records (Content Elements).
All pages are shown in a hierarchical view in the page tree of the Typo3 backend.
Every page has some properties describing their type of content, visibility, accessibility and more.

==== Page Content ====
If a page is intended to display something it needs a page content. The page content is shown in the content area.
You can use types like "Text", "Table", "Text w/image" and so on.
"Page content" records are ordered and can thus be rearranged using the "Move down in list" and "Move up in list" icons respectively.
