Page Titles

Page Title components are most often used when your page has limited and/or no text, but features multimedia content like image or video galleries. They can also be used within a page when you want to break up text from multimedia content inserted in the center area of the page.

The following instructions provide information on creating a Page Title component and adding it to a page via Tridion.
