MultiExcerptNameFeature Overview

The CMS Scripts & Styles function allows you to create and edit scripts and styles as CMS widgets. And because these widgets are dedicated only to running scripts or applying styles, you will know at a glance if a page is using customised JavaScript or Style Sheets.

With the Scripts & Styles widget, you can bundle related scripts and styles into one widget, to function as a unit. Or you can load multiple Scripts and Style widgets to operate independently on a page. You can also easily turn them on and off by ticking the checkbox next to the widget in the page layout.

IMPORTANT - Access to CMS Scripts & Styles widgets is automatically available for version 4.13.02 or higher. If your system needs to be upgraded, please contact us.
