Hi,

I've been working on a site where, again, it's important for the client to have the ability to update the introductory information on a List page. Here's what I've done in the past that works:
1. Create a section named "Intros"
2. Create the intro for a specific category as page in the section.
3. Add the Load Records Code before the intro location on the List page to include the viewer and add the record code.
4. Add (or add again) the Load Record List code for the list page for the list viewer.

I don't mind going through these steps during development, but wanted to confirm that there's no way update the "intro" text other than having client go to a separate section (Intros) and selecting the introduction update for a specific List page.

Now that I've articulated this question, I really can't see how it could be done any differently within CMS Builder...but I'm asking anyway. Between the Interactive Tools team and knowledgeable members on this forum I've learned there's always something more to learn about creative solutions.

Thanks!

Wow, I hadn't thought of that last one. That's creative.

Any of these works for me, and I'd been using the first., but now I think I'd like to try the last for this project. Looks simpler for client to maintain.

Thanks a bunch.
