# Topics

The Topics component allows your site members to add topics to records to organize them by theme in your Experience Builder site.

Add the topics component to record detail pages for objects that have topics enabled.

When a user searches with the Topics component, the dropdown menu displays a maximum of five topics. If they select the topic with **Press Enter to Add** listed next to it, and the topic exists, the topic is assigned. If it doesn't exist, the system creates the topic, which is assigned when the user clicks it.

1. Select the **Topics** component.
2. In the property editor, configure the properties for the component.
