  ![](https://help.vfairs.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Basic-png.png?width=275&height=566&name=Basic-png.png)

### **Choosing a Content Type**

Under **Content Type**, select the type of content you want to add.

Three options are available:

- **URL**
- **PDF**
- **Image**

**  ![](https://help.vfairs.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Dropdown-png.png?width=275&height=196&name=Dropdown-png.png)**

The options available after selecting a content type depend on the type of content you choose.

### **Adding a URL**

Select **URL** from the **Content Type** dropdown. Enter the URL you want to make available through the mobile app.

You will also see the following setting:

"Open the URL Within the App Instead of an External Browser"

Enable this option if you want the URL to open directly within the mobile app. When enabled, the URL opens **within the app**. If the option is not enabled, the URL opens in an **external browser**.

### **Adding a PDF**

Select **PDF** from the **Content Type** dropdown and upload or select the PDF you want to make available in the app.

PDF files open **natively within the mobile app**. No browser setting is required.

This can be useful for resources such as:

- Event guides
- Brochures
- Floor plans
- Exhibitor directories
- Schedules
- Information packs

### **Adding an Image**

Select **Image** from the **Content Type** dropdown and upload or select the image you want to display in the app.

Images open **natively within the mobile app**.

This can be useful for sharing event maps, informational graphics, promotional content, or other visual resources.
