CMS Module

The Content Management System (CMS) lets you define content structures, create and publish content, store files, and control the content shown on your public site. It also manages API tokens and webhooks for integrations.

In the sidebar this module appears under Content.

Overview

The CMS Module is reached from the Content section of the sidebar. You define custom content types, create and publish entries against those types, upload files, publish FAQs and contact information to your public site, and manage API tokens and webhooks for programmatic access.

Module Sections

[Dashboard](./dashboard.md)

Overview of CMS activity. Shows stat cards for Content Types, Entries, API Tokens, and Webhooks, plus a Recent Activity feed and an API Usage summary (last 7 days).

[Content Manager](./content-manager.md)

Create, edit, and manage content entries. Each entry is kept as a Draft (Save Draft) or published (Save & Publish). Entry statuses are Draft, Pending Review, Approved, Published, and Archived.

[Content Type Builder](./content-type-builder.md)

Create and edit custom content types and their fields. Content types come in three kinds: Collections, Singles, and Components. Each field has a Display Name, an auto-generated API Name, a Field Type, and a Required flag.

[File Drive (Media Library)](./media-library.md)

Store and manage uploaded files for use in your content.

[API](./api.md)

The API Tokens screen. Create, copy, regenerate, and delete tokens (Read Only, Full Access, or Custom) used for programmatic CMS access.

[Webhooks](./webhooks.md)

Define webhooks that notify external systems when CMS content changes.

[FAQ](./faq.md)

Manage frequently asked questions shown on your public site. Each FAQ item has a Question, Answer, and optional free-text Category, plus an Active/Inactive toggle.

[Contact Us](./contact-us.md)

Manage the contact information (phone, email, social links, map embed) displayed on your public site. This is a display-field manager, not a form-submission inbox.
