Editing a Placeholder Definition

   The placeholder definition dialog opens. See Placeholder Definition Dialog and Placeholder Definitions for more information.

3. Enter a description for the placeholder definition. You should use a good naming convention to help use the placeholder definition. If you can understand what the placeholder definition does from the name, then you won't have to view the definition each time you consider using it.

4. Select or deselect the actions you want to allow with the placeholder definition. All of these actions impact how the contributor works with the contribution region.

5. In the allowed region definitions, click Add to add a region definition, and a region template.

6. In the allowed subtemplates, click Add to add a subtemplate.

7. Click Remove in any section to remove the selected region definition, region template, or subtemplate, as applicable.

When editing the placeholder definition, you should keep in mind the region definitions, region templates, and subtemplates.
