• Go to the Final Latout Tab
• Click Edit

• Edit an existing Rendering:
• Update the Placeholder (will always be "Main" unless a specific column is needed. If that's true see instructions on columns here.
• Populate Data source with the appropriate Data Item (likely the one you just created).

Additional Details:

There are a number of things you can do with this rendering, with the buttons on the right. The first thing you'll need to do is move it in the hierarchy you'd like to see it within on the page. You can accomplish that by using the Move Up and/or Move Down buttons.

The Change button can be used to change the rendering. (ie. Media Grid Digizuite 2 Left vs. a Media Grid Digizuite 3 Right, etc.)
