  • Available fields/Selected Fields: “Available Fields” and “Selected Fields” are used for filtering, to decide which columns to show in the list. The Available Fields list displays all supported list columns (Date and Time, Person or Group, Yes/No, Managed Metadata) in the Pages library of the selected News Center site. The Selected Fields will show up as filters to the end user. It is possible to drag and drop the columns to decide in which order the columns should be rendered to the end user.

  • Show My Drafts Filter: Check if it should be possible for the end user to show draft news (only relevant for news authors).
  • Page Size: Defines the number of news articles displayed per list page.
  • Paging Type: Defines what type of paging that should be used: Classic: The result list will be divided into pages based on the Page Size. Scroll: By default, the page will load as many news articles that can fit the screen. When the user scrolls down, the number of news articles set in Page Size will load.
