How to show available componets for page?

[GK-AEM]

Hi All,

How to show list of available components by default for page created using template without switching page to design mode and select the required components?

Thanks,

Kishore

  Hi kishore, First time you have to go to design mode to add the components. Once added commit/check in the node etc/design/[template name]/[jcr:content] . All the components selected are stored in above path, so if you commit this there wont be any need to add again.

One thing to watch out for is where in the node hierarchy you put your configs.  If you put one specific component in a column control versus template level you end up inadvertently losing all other components.  We put all our design configs at the template region level.
