Overview

A Content item can be placed in different Locations in the Content tree.

 

A Content item in itself does not have a place in the Content tree and is not visible for a visitor of the website. To take its place in the website it has to be assigned a Location ID.

A single Content item can have more than one Location ID, that is, it will be shown in more than one place in the Content tree. A single Location, however, can only have one Content item in it.

Even if a Content item is placed in more than one Location, one Location is always selected as the main. Assigning Locations to Content happens in the Content mode interface(old).
