Pages and posts
Create, edit, publish, and organize your site's content.
Pages and posts are the two built-in content types that ship with Contensio.
Pages vs posts
- Pages are standalone, hierarchical content — your "About," "Contact," "Pricing." They can have parent/child nesting if you want nested URLs.
- Posts are chronological — blog articles, news, updates. They're flat (no hierarchy) but have categories and tags.
Both share the same underlying model and the same edit screen — the behaviour differences are set per content type in Configuration → Content Types.
The edit screen
Every page and post has:
- Title and slug (auto-derived from the title; override as needed)
- Body — composed of blocks
- Status — draft, published, scheduled, trashed
- Featured image (optional)
- Excerpt (optional)
- SEO fields — meta title, meta description, OG image per language
- Custom fields — if the content type has any attached field groups
Multilingual content
If your site has more than one language, every content item gets a language tab at the top of the edit screen. Switch tabs to enter the translation for each language. Each language has its own title, slug, body, and SEO fields.
Autosave
Contensio saves a draft in the background every few seconds while you type. If you close the tab or navigate away, the autosave is there when you reopen the edit screen — a yellow banner appears with Restore and Discard options.
- Restore fills the form fields from the autosave without touching the database. Review the restored content and click Save if you want to keep it.
- Discard deletes the autosave and keeps the last saved version.
Published changes only go live when you click Save.
Bulk actions
In the Pages and Posts list, you can select multiple items and act on them all at once.
- Tick the checkbox at the start of each row you want to include (or tick the header checkbox to select all).
- A blue bar appears above the table showing how many items are selected.
- Choose an action from the dropdown — Publish, Set as Draft, or Delete.
- Click Apply. Deleting triggers a confirmation dialog first.
Bulk actions respect the same permissions as per-item actions — you need write access to the relevant content type.
