Site.Com - placing a data repeater

This is not mentioned in the Site.Com documentation, but are there only specific elements within which you can place a data repeater?

 

I have a page template that has both editable content blocks and editable code blocks. When I attempt to add a data repeater to the page, I get the message "There is no place for this element" and trying to drag & drop a data repeater onto the page shows the red circle with a slash through it, regardless of where on the page I attempt to place it.

 

It would be useful if the documentation actually stated the restrictions on where various objects can or cannot be placed.

 

Thank you.

It seems like you are trying to add a data repeater to a template-based page that only has editable content blocks and editable custom code. However, in a template based page, you can only add page elements, such as a data repeater, to an editable panel.
