CMS: Adding a Preset Collection
3 min read
A CMS (Content Management System) preset acts as a template for creating dynamic pages that connect to CMS collections.
Each preset includes:
- A sample collection with content that connects to your dynamic pages.
- A dynamic list page that showcases the collection items in a repeater or gallery.
- A dynamic item page that displays details about individual collection items.
You can choose from several customizable presets. When you add a preset, the dynamic pages and their connected collection are automatically added to your editor. You can then customize them to fit your needs.
