How to use the containerpage model?

A containerpage model or page model is a default copy model for the containerpage, where common contents, which should appear on all new containerpages, are defined. Usually the page models are in following folder of the sub sitemap:

 

/{sitefolder}/{sub sitemap path}/.content/.new/

 

In order to use the page model, its path has to be set in the sitemap configuration inside of the tab "Page Models".

The defined page model will then appear in the list of containerpages in the "Create Page" dialog of the sitemap editor. In order to have a nice name for the new page model, please edit additionally its title property. If set as default this page is also used to create the new page, when it is added over the context menu in the sitemap editor. Further use the check box of the page model configuration to control the visibility of the inherited page models from the upper sitemaps.
