Fundamentals about Pages in Typo3

Pages vs. Page contents

Page

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.

Edit page properties

1. Click on the icon of the page in the page tree. (Right-click on either the icon or the title of the page and left-click on the icon opens a drop-down menu while left-click on the page title shows the content of the page.)

2. In the drop-down menu click "Edit page properties". Alternatively click on the pencil upper icon row in the content area.

Remark about using page tree: Right-click on either the icon or the title of the page and left-click on the icon opens a drop-down menu while left-click on the page title shows the content of the page in the content area.

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.
