The K2 Items Dashboard is the centre for your K2 item management and the layout is relativley self explanatory.
This guide is relevant to both V2.4.1 and V2.5
The view is split in to several columns across the page and so I shall describe from left to right.
- # Column
Used to indicate which line item we are looking at. - Tick Box Column
Used to select an item so that an additional function can be carried out. - Title Column
Displays the titles of the K2 items that have been created. - Featured Column
