Custom Element Dialog

The Custom element becomes a field in Contributor that users (contributors) can use to add content that cannot be added using the other elements (WYSIWYG, Plain Text, and Image). More specifically, the Custom element provides a way to create a custom interface (also called a custom element form) that is used to add various types of content (multimedia files, source code, and so on). This particular element is used in legacy sites.

ID	The identification that Site Studio assigns to the element.
Name	The name you assign to the element. This name is used for coding purposes and as such should not contain spaces, or non-ASCII or special characters. If you reuse the same data file in multiple layout places, then the name of the region and its elements on each page must be the same.
