Creating a Placeholder

A Placeholder is an HTML layout field that indicates a place for interactive widget content storage. It is possible to set up the type of supported widgets in the placeholder.

To create a new placeholder:

  1. Go to Applications and select a CLM presentation.

  2. In the Templates section, click the template name.

  3. Go to the Related tab.

  4. In the Placeholders section, click New.

    CreatePlaceholder

  5. Fill out the necessary fields.

    The full description of placeholder attributes is available here.

    • The placeholder name should include the CLM presentation name, e.g., e-Detailing2: Test Template, where e-Detailing2 is the name of the CLM presentation.

    • The placeholder position number is a required parameter.

      On the template markup, placeholders are marked as {!POSITION_n}, where n is a position number. A widget that is associated with this placeholder and that has the corresponding position number in {!POSITION_n} will be added to the slide layout by the Renew Slides button on the CLM presentation page.

    • Specify a type of placeholder.

      NewPlaceholder

  6. Click Save or Save & New to create another placeholder.

The placeholder is created.
