Summaries are a good way to direct visitors to the content they are looking for. Summaries allow you to easily create a preview of content available on another page of your site which visitors can click to find out more (like the text you're currently reading!).
This section of instructions will cover the different types of Summaries you can add to a page via Tridion, how to create them, and how to add them.
Table of Contents
Content Summaries
By using a Content Summary Template, you can include a brief introductory paragraph from one component or page and feature the same component in full on a separate page.
For information on adding Content Summaries to a page via Tridion, see these instructions:
Content Summary Lists
Summary List templates are excellent options for providing visitors with brief overviews of content on other pages through using a more "designed" element on your page.
