Adding a New Product Section

To add a new section to the content tree, highlight the item in the tree that you want the section created under, and then:

·      Right click and select 'New Section' (or go to 'Edit | New Section'). This creates a section underneath the current item. If you have a section highlighted this will create a new section at the same level.

·      Right-click and select 'New Sub-Section' (or go to 'Edit | New Sub-Section'). This is only available if you have a section highlighted. This will create a new section within the current section.

·      Press [Ctrl + S] to create a new section at the same level as the current item.

·      Press [Ctrl + Shift + S] to create a new sub-section within the current section.

You will be shown an empty 'Section Details' window ready to fill in.
