How do I ensure the display tag is available to use by lower-level admins?
If you want content to be shared between multiple layouts, create the tag as a top-level admin, so it's available to use by lower-level admins in their layouts.

5. Click Save.
Continue to an option below to assign your content with this display tag, so it appears in that section.
