The source editing window is opened under the Sources topic tab in the header using the New Source button.
In this view you manage which sources are displayed in the Sources menu bar.
You can add or remove new sources using various source selection pop-ups. The process for searching and selecting new sources varies depending on the type of source. Therefore, you will search in a specific pop-up dialog for each one.
You can delete sources that have already been created directly here in the main view of the sources that have already been created, as well as in the editing pop-ups.
The various source types, such as news agencies or RSS feeds, are arranged side by side in columns in the source editing window. You may need to scroll your browser window horizontally to see all the columns. In each column, you'll see the previously created sources listed in tiles. The most recently added source is at the bottom of the column.
Each source tile contains a hyperlink, the source logo or placeholder, the source name, and a delete icon (trash can). Clicking this link opens the original source page in a new browser window.
