Specify a Content Type Schema

After you have defined the general parameters for a content type, you must define the structure of the articles within a content type by defining and applying content type schema. You can specify whether the various content fields that you define are required or optional for content authors.

You should review Content Type Schema Nodes and Attributes before continuing with the tasks below.

To specify a content type schema, perform the following tasks.

• Create Content Type Schema
