Hi,
This sounds like it should be easy, but I am struggling.
I have created an Asset builder for a standard page.
It has a custom create form, so users can tag the page with metadata.
I can't find how to add a field for the page contents. Is there a keyword for that?
Thanks
Catherine

Find the layout keyword for tagging screen. http://manuals.matrix.squizsuite.net/other-cms-assets/chapters/asset-builder-page/#Customising-the-Layout-of-the-Create-Form

The keyword you're looking for is %__custom-contents%…if you're looking to add page contents, unless my understanding of your question is incorrect

Just realized i misunderstood the question. 
Unfortunately you cannot add the content to a standard page in the builder because the page content asset doesn't exist before the standard page is created. If you really want to add the content in the builder, use the asset type of "news items".

Thanks Anton,
Yes, I'm trying to add page contents.
I tried %__custom-contents%
and it makes my form completely blank.
Is there another setting I need to change?

Ah of course, completely forgot about that Robin. For some reason I got it confused with simple edit layouts. Sorry for the confusion Catherine 
Looks like your best workaround is to create the asset and then do a refresh which takes the user to the simple edit layout which will let them edit the contents.

Thanks Robin and Anton.
That's a bit disappointing.
I shall have to go back to the drawing board. 
I'll have a play with the news items and some metadata to see if I can soemthing I can use.

Still wouldn't be an answer to this would there? Right now I am trying to get the Asset Builder to create News Items and no keywords work and even when I apply metadata schema and then call on the keyword replacement for the meta data (i.e. %metadata-F_<fieldid>% ) http://manuals.matrix.squizsuite.net/other-cms-assets/chapters/asset-builder-page#Customising-the-Layout-of-the-Create-Form- IT DOES NOT WORK
It seems like I still have to do the refresh and redirect to Easy Edit/Edit +
The UX, definitely takes a bit of a hit here, that's for sure...

What is not working? Are you making sure to put in the field id in that keyword?

What IS the field ID and where do I find it? Please remember I have about 2 months experience using Squiz, so many things get lost on me - especially in the documentation.
I am just using the IDs from the Metadata sections as I really don't know what Field IDs are or where to find them (i.e. %metadata-F_#287038% )

Going on this comment, it seems that the field IDs do not exist until the actual News Item is created. metadata-sections.jpg (54.5 KB)

No problem. We are happy to hold your hand.
It looks like you have only created metadata sections, and have not created any fields within those sections. This is what fields look like under a section:
The field ID is just the asset ID of the metadata field. So once you create some fields, you would just use the field ID:
%metadata-F_551301%
