Web content tags

We use IBM Web Content Manager tags to reference elements within presentation templates and element designs.

To create a web content tag, click Insert a Tag from a presentation template or element design field. The Tag Helper dialog opens. You then select and configure one of the following tag types:

Alternate design tag

We use an alternate design tag to display a different component based on whether the item being returned by a menu or navigator is on the current path or not.

Attribute resource tag

Use attribute resource tag to define the information returned by a search query.

Component tag

The Component tag is used to reference the content of a component within a presentation template or element design.

Element tag

The Element tag is used to reference an element within a presentation template or element design.

Indent tag

We use an indent tag to format element designs that require results to be indented.

Page information tag

Use page information tag to display page navigation details in the design of a page navigation element.

Path component tag

The path component tag is used to represent certain parts of the URL such as the servlet path, the base path, or the context path of the current page. This tag can be added to presentation templates, element designs, and component designs.

Placeholder tag

We use a placeholder tag to display metadata within an element or component design.

Plug-in tag

Render plug-ins are referenced using the plug-in tag.

Property tag

A property tag is used to display various fields and metadata from content items and site areas.

Style element tag

The style element tag is used to reference a style sheet component selected as the default style sheet in an authoring template, or a style sheet component referenced within a site area or content item using a component reference.
