Looking at the way the Store Policies are displayed it would appear that I need to create a document with a content-id of "WebStoreCONTENT" and a map-key appropriate to the thing I want to display. <sub-content content-id="WebStoreCONTENT" map-key="policies"/> But I do not know how to view or edit this item (the policies document) or to create a new one. Can someone give me step by step instructions to get to the right place as I am currently lost. David
