Add related content to profiles

One of the benefits of using a content management system like Stanford Sites is the ability to create relationships between different types of content. This provides site visitors different ways to explore the content on your site and makes it easier for you to keep your site content fresh. When adding a new item, such as a recent publication, a news item, or a new video or podcast, you can indicate one or more profile pages on the site as a destination without the need to edit the individual profiles.
