How to Modify Part Properties and Attributes in Page Builder

Within Page Builder, users can edit both the parts listed in the BOM (Bill of Materials) and their associated properties. Edits can be made at two levels: 

  • Part Data (Global): Changes apply to the Part everywhere it exists
  • Page Part Data (Local): Changes apply only to the Part on a specific Page

Understanding Part Data vs. Page Part Data

Part Properties within a page are broken into two categories, Part Data & Page Part Data.

Updating this affects the Parts on all Pages

Orderability, Visibility, Tags, & Translations 
Page Part Data ("Local") Refers to the data associated to a Part on a specific Page.
Updating this affects only the specific Page		 Orderability, Visibility, Tags, and Hotpoint Links on a specific Page
