Create content

Learn how to create data-driven content

Each document (container or item) can have content, i.e. a list of blocks which is shown in the content layout mode. Currently, the following content types are supported:

XHTML
A fragment of XHTML that is embedded onto the page
Object
RDF URI resources that get transcluded into the page. Built-in resource examples:
Linked Data resource
Any URI that resolves to RDF data
View
A paginated result of a SPARQL SELECT query (client-side "container")
Chart
A result of a SPARQL query rendered as a chart

Content other than HTML content is called object. The HTML content is part of the document while resource content is simply embedded (transcluded) into the HTML page.
