Smart Content Configuration

Configure behavior and set up smart content rules for the SiteManager CMS.

Note:

Before you can implement Smart Content on your website, you or your project owner need to activate the Smart Content module in your General Project Settings.

After creating your Smart Content Groups, you need to set up the Smart Content Configurations.

 

Our Smart Content module has recently been renamed to Logic. All documentation will be updated with the new name in the future.
