<p>By default, the <code>DEFAULT</code> region will be supplied the
XML of the current page's structured data, so I suspect unless you
apply a Format that simply outputs no visible content, you will see
some XML dumped to the region.</p>
<p>Curious, is there a reason not to use <code>DEFAULT</code>
instead of <code>main content</code>? They are essentially the same
thing.</p>
<p>Please let me know if you have any questions.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p></div>Ryan Griffithtag:help-archives.hannonhill.com,2010-02-09:Comment/403175952016-07-13T19:30:42Z2016-07-13T19:30:42ZCan I leave system-region default empty?<div><p>Thank you Ryan, that answered my question. So, by default, the
default-region will generate something unless I explicitly format
it otherwise. I was just curious about the nature of default-region
versus my own user-created-regions. Originally I had plans to
define my own main content region, because then we can keep the
naming consistent with other regions, and hopefully make sense down
the road for other new users on our team. –Jeff</p></div>jeff.lintag:help-archives.hannonhill.com,2010-02-09:Comment/403175952016-07-13T19:36:11Z2016-07-13T19:36:11ZCan I leave system-region default empty?<div><p>Makes sense, Jeff.</p>
<p>The <strong>DEFAULT</strong> region is definitely unique, mainly
to handle Content Types that do not have Data Definitions applied
to them. In those cases, the region will be the contents of the
WYSIWYG that is presented to the user (we call this the "default
WYSIWYG"). If a Data Definition is applied and there is no Index
Block assigned, the region is given the page's structured data.</p>
<p>I'm going to go ahead and close this discussion, please feel
free to comment or reply to re-open if you have any additional
questions.</p>
<p>Have a great day!</p></div>Ryan Griffith
