Properties are fields containing data and that can be added to articles by any user with **write**
|
|
access. These fields are shared between all the child articles and article items under the same
|
|
parent.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
To be able to add properties, an article must be either a **child article** or an **article
|
|
item**.
