A Scalar project is comprised of six\u00a0content types<\/strong>.\u00a0Each of these content types is treated as a single \u2018page\u2019 within a project. This enables the author to mix different content types to create a unique structure for her\/his project, since each of the 6 content types can be connected to another. Content types can be imported, viewed, edited, and deleted in the Dashboard.\r\n
