Answers.Body: <p>What I think you're asking is how to manage content for listing/index page that would pull in entries in a channel. Like the main index page for a blog that shows a list of recent blog entries. Or an "Our Projects" page that's the parent for project detail child pages.</p>
  
  <p>The way I like to do this is create a Single section called "Blog Index" or "Our Projects." You can then use that Blog Index entry to manage the page title or any other content like a hero image or SEO metadata.</p>

  I have a number of pages/sections (listings) in either channels or structures. Each page/section (listing) will have a heading that displays an editable title of each page/section.
  
  Should I be able to set this up so the client can edit the title of each section from *within* that section page in admin? I'm not seeing where to do that. Or do I have to put that field in another place, not within my section? Like in a global settings section that provides editing of each of my sections/pages?
  
  For example, if the page heading says 'Our Projects', but my client wants to be able to change it to 'About Our Amazing Projects' or whatever, where is the best place to put that? I see a 'Name' field for each section, but I'm not sure if that is the appropriate place for it.
