Dynamic Pages: Creating Collections
In order to create a Dynamic Page, you must define a collection; this is where the page connects to and where it pulls content from. Collections contain lists of items with similar information (e.g. name, location, etc).
One example of a collection is menu items; the collection might contain the following info:
Menu Item | Type | Price | Image | Page_Item_url |
Item A | Dinner | 25.00 | URL | property_a |
Item B | Breakfast | 10.00 | URL | property_b |
Item C | Lunch | 15.00 | URL | property_c |
You can select from the following options for adding a collection:
To create the collection, select “Content,” “Business Content,” and “Collections.”
Select “New Collection”
Select the type of collection you want to create, enter the relevant details in collection settings.
Define the collection fields and click done.
Rules for Creating Collections
All collections should follow these rules:
- First row should contain the field names
- Data should be structured based on data type
- Location and business hours must be structured as follows:
- Location: street address, postal code, region, city, country
- Hours: e.g. Sat, Sun: 08:00-20:00
