                <listitem>
                    Navigate to the content by using links or menus provided by the site.
                </listitem>

                    Click <guibutton>Content</guibutton> in the &product.longname; toolbar.

        <listitem>
            Each element of the type of content is identified by dotted borders. Click inside a
            border and then enter the desired content.
        </listitem>

        <listitem>
            To view or edit the page as it is displayed, click <emphasis role="bold">In-Place
            Mode</emphasis>.

            Notice that the toolbar buttons <emphasis role="bold">URL</emphasis>,
            <emphasis role="bold">Menus</emphasis> and
            <emphasis role="bold">Categories</emphasis> disappear in Form Mode, and their
            options appear in a sidebar to the right of the element editing area.
        </listitem>

        <listitem>
            If you wish to cancel any changes you have made and leave the content in its original

    </orderedlist>

    <note>
        <title>Saving With Workflow</title>

        <para>
            If a <emphasis>workflow</emphasis> is assigned to the type of content you are adding,
            some additional options may be available to you, including the option to publish the
            content and/or provide a comment describing why the content was added. These options
            are presented after you click <guibutton>Save</guibutton>.
        </para>

        <para>
            You should also be aware that if the workflow assigned to your content includes
            conditions, those conditions are not evaluated continuously. This means that, for the
            current release of &product.name;, you may have to save your content and then begin
            editing again to see new workflow transition options.
