Shared Components

Shared Components allow you to reuse an existing component on a layout or page. It is a copy of the component that is tied to the parent, the parent being the original component that was shared. If the parent component changes, it changes all the children everywhere they are being used.

This process is conducted through the Front End of iD and will depend on the level of Security applied.

Reporting

Changing Ownership of pages

The advantages of using the Shared Component are:

Update the content once and have all pages using the same component updated as well
Reduce inconsistencies across pages
Reuse an existing piece of content
Consistent content creation

Authorized users can create and edit shared components via the Share Component option in the Component Properties drop-down menu (as shown below).

Once Share Component is selected, you will need to complete the Share Component Settings

Share this component
Set to True or False
Allows users to enable or disable a component to be Shared

Share Name
Enter a Share Name to be displayed for the Shared Component
Allows a user to identify and name the Shared Component being set for reuse on other pages or layouts

Add this component to current template
Tick or untick checkbox
Allows user to add the Shared Component to the template currently being used. This will also add the Shared Component to the Components - Shared tab within the Editing Toolbar (as shown below)

Using a Shared Component

When creating new layouts or pages, a Shared Component will be available to be used - you will find it under the Components - Shared tab. It cannot be edited or changed. Only the parent component can be modified - the parent being the original component that was shared.

To locate the page where the parent component is managed see Managing Shared Components below.

Managing Shared Components

In order to manage Shared Components, you must have admin access to the either the Layout Manager or iD CMS application - depending on if you are using the shared component on a layout or on a page.

From the Advanced Menu within either Layout Manager or iD CMS, you can select from the following options (as shown below)

Orphaned Shared Components

Allows you to reassign the Shared Component if the Parent Page is deleted. e.g. The parent page of the shared component tagline has been deleted and no longer has a parent page.

It can now be reassigned to another parent page so that it can be edited and updated.

In Use Shared Components
Allows you to view a list of all Shared Components that are currently in use.
