On the Basic tab, standard metadata for a content item can be viewed/modified.

PropertyDescription
TitleThe title of the content item. This is the string that appears in the title in the Editor. Title can be used in the friendly URL if your SEO settings are configured for it. Ask your Application Manager if your site is set up to use Title in the friendly URL.
Navigation TitleFor web pages, you can specify a navigation title that differs from the title of the page. The navigation title appears in the website navigation in both the frontend and in the Workspace. Navigation Title can be used in the friendly URL if your SEO settings are configured for it. Ask your Application Manager if your site is set up to use Navigation Title in the friendly URL.
Publication Date

The date and time the Publication Status of the content item was or will be Active or Planned, depending on the Workflow status. By default, the Publication Date and time is the moment that the content item was created. At the same time, the default Workflow Status is Planned which means that the default Publication Status of a newly created content item is "Inactive". This prevents a newly created content item from being immediately visible.

If you change the Publication Date for a content item to a future time while its Workflow Status is set to "Published", the Publication Status changes from "Inactive" to "Planned". When the current date and time reaches a content item's Publication Date, the Publication Status transitions from "Planned" to "Active".

Expiration DateThe date the content item expired or will expire. By default, a content item has no expiration date assigned to it. You must manually configure the expiration date for a content item.
Include in Search Engine (moved to SEO tab in R38)Specifies whether to include the content from this content item in the search engine index.
