Choose the right content type

About

Choosing the right content type keeps lists, relationships, calendars, and search results reliable.

Before creating content

• Use pages for stable information and editorial content types for structured items.
• Use the most specific type available, such as news, event, job, publication, member, or project.
• Search first when the content might already exist.

When unsure

• Check where similar content appears on the public site.
• Prefer updating an existing record over creating a duplicate.
• Open a support ticket when the right type is unclear.
