Hi Rowan,

exacly where you are looking.

Its a principle in TYPO3 that (almost) every record in the database
belongs to a specific page (field pid). So to create a record, you
need to first create a page, select it and add the record to it. Pages
of type folder are commonly used to store records.

Regards,
Jost
