Pages are the individual URLs of your website. You create them under Structure → Pages and then populate them with content via Content.
With Create from template, you can generate a new page directly from an existing page template, including predefined content.

​
Creating a new page

Open Structure → Pages in the sidebar and click + New.

General

Maintain the basic data of the page:
  • Description: Internal name of the page, used only for an overview in the CMS
  • URL slug: Path of the page (e.g. produkte/golfschlaeger)
  • Hide breadcrumb: Hides the breadcrumb navigation on this page
  • Custom breadcrumb: Overrides the breadcrumb text
Additional options are available under Show more.

Metadata

Maintain the SEO-relevant fields:
  • Browser title: Displayed in the browser tab (recommendation: max. 60 characters)
  • Meta description: Description text for search engines (recommendation: max. 160 characters)
  • Meta keywords: Keywords that reflect the content of the page
  • Canonical: URL of the original page if content is accessible under multiple URLs
If you enable Meta noindex, the page will not be indexed by search engines.

Selecting building blocks

Select which building blocks (e.g. Header Logo, Footer Newsletter, AI Button) should be displayed on the page. Learn more under Building blocks.

Controlling publication

  • Active: Makes the page visible on the website
  • Valid from / Valid until: Time-controlled publication (e.g. for promotional pages)

Saving

Click Save or Save and close.

​
Additional options

Via Synchronize page, you can automatically import content from an external source or have it generated with the dc Copilot:
  • Page is synchronized: Enable the toggle
  • Synchronize page from: Select the source
  • Synchronization interval: Manual or automatic
  • dc Copilot synchronization instruction: Optional specifications for the Copilot
Here you can store page-specific layout files. By default, the layout is inherited from the Layouts.

​
Editing a page

The toolbar of the page list offers two editing options:
  • Edit (or double-click): Opens the page editor for maintaining content. You can switch between Editor: Structure (visual container view) and Editor: List (tabular view).
  • Settings: Opens the page settings with the same fields as when creating (description, URL slug, metadata, building blocks, publication).
Via Preview, you can view the page as it appears on the website.
Learn how to maintain content on a page under Page content.

​
Backups and version history

When synchronizing, a page automatically backs itself up, with a complete version history. This ensures no change state is lost, and you can return to an earlier state at any time. In addition, you can create a manual backup at any time. You access the backups in the page editor via the Backup menu in the header bar:
  • Create backup: Immediately creates a backup of the current state. After creation, a brief message confirms the success.
  • Restore backup: Only active if at least one backup exists. Opens the list of all backups.

​
Restoring a backup

In the Restore backup dialog, you select the desired state. Each entry shows the date and time, the type of backup (e.g. Manual), and who created it. Via the download icon, you can download a backup as an export. With the option Back up current state before restoring, you automatically create a backup of the current state before the older state is restored. Then click Restore.

​
Deleting a page

Select a page and click Delete in the toolbar.
When deleting a page, all maintained content is also lost. This action cannot be undone.
