From Setup, enter Components in the Quick Find box, then select Visualforce Components to display the Components list page, which shows the list of custom components defined for your organization. From this page you can:

  • Click New to define a new custom component.
  • Click a custom component name to display detailed information about the component.
  • Click Edit to modify a component's name or markup.
    Note
    Note A Managed - Installed icon indicates that a Visualforce custom component is in an installed managed package. You can’t edit or delete a Visualforce custom component in a managed package. A Managed - Deleted icon indicates that a Visualforce custom component in a previously released managed package will be deleted on the next package upload. You can choose to undelete the Visualforce custom component through the package detail page.
  • Click Del to remove a custom component from your organization.

The namespace prefix is added to Apex classes and triggers, Visualforce components and pages, brand templates, folders, s-controls, static resources, web links, and custom report types if they are included in a managed package. However, if you don't have customize application permissions, the namespace prefix field is not displayed for brand templates, folders, and custom report types.
