To add fields to a content list:

1. In the Content List view on the Overview tab, open the content list by hovering over it and clicking **![Actions](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-platform-extend_click-264-0-0-production-enus/5f7d9219-b7b1-4552-8891-f1aba9b289fc/extend_click/images/siteforce_icon_actions.png)** | **Edit Fields**. Alternatively, if the content list is open in the records view, click **Edit Fields**.
2. Add a field from the Available Fields pane by clicking it or dragging it onto the canvas. You can’t add a Category field to a content list unless you’ve already [added categories](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.siteforce_category_create.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Categories let you create groups of terms that you can use to classify the items in your site's content lists.") to the site.
3. Set the field’s properties using the [options in the Properties pane](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.siteforce_content_field_props.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "When adding or editing fields in a content list, use the options in the Properties pane to control how the selected field functions.").

After you add fields to the page canvas, you can:

- Rearrange the field order by selecting fields and dragging them to the correct position.
- Delete a field by selecting it and clicking ![Delete](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-platform-extend_click-264-0-0-production-enus/5f7d9219-b7b1-4552-8891-f1aba9b289fc/extend_click/images/siteforce_icon_del.png).
- Open the records view by clicking **Edit Records**.
