Designing Collection pages - Webflow CMS tutorial

Whenver you create a new item (e.g., blog post, help article, etc.) in a Webflow CMS Collection, a page is automatically created for it. Collection Pages work like templates — the layout and design of the Collection Page will ly to every Collection item's page.

That means Collection Pages are essentially templates for recurring pieces of content, such as blog posts, help articles, or even landing pages.

In this video, we'll show you how to:

1. Create a Collection Page
2. Add and connect content
3. Preview Collection Pages
4. Link to a Collection Page

Plus, we'll show you the settings you can adjust for Collection Pages.

Note: We’re transitioning to a new UI, and are in the process of updating our Webflow University content.

But how do I make a collection page to be seen /linked from my normal and already created webpages?

[BrentLagerman]

how's it going with those blog posts Dale?

[g.u.s]

Is this with a paid version cuz I’m using the free one and can’t seem to link buttons from my home page to the cms page

[whyneil]

Doesn't seem up to date, unable to link to a collection page from a static page as it does here in the video. Any pointers would be great.

Whoever does these demos is worth every penny. Good shit, quick to the point and presents the content well.

Let's say I have a client who has built blog posts on CMS Collections now the number of FAQs are different for different pages & they want to accommodate FAQs in accordions let's say Page A has 5 FAQs, Page B has 7 FAQs

Is it possible to accommodate that in Accordions by having 5 FAQ dropdown accordion in 1 page & 7 in another?

How would you modify/create an index page of a cms collection?
Is this possible yet?

It's been 6 years, I want to know if Dave is done configuring the static pages

[drriks]

I have a footer link - when I click the settings icon, none of the purple elements for collection pages appear in the dropdown menu or the right sidebar?

Please make an updated video on CMS Blog page

You can easily get drowned by all the info. I miss a clear description of the architecture of data and an easy guide step by step of what to do. I don't find this easy to use and the speed is way too fast.

These tutorials are done incredibly well.

[GraysonGibson]

This doesn't work. I tried all these steps and my content with dummy text does not show up on my preview. Wish you guys had better tutorials for the templates because this is really turning me off to using this

[davidadams]

Good to see the scientific method being used.

[lemonade]

Easy to follow and funny to watch, you guys are the best! Thanks, Webflow!

I got a problem with these collection links. It links to /en/blog/article so this page does not exists. If I go manually to the link without /en it's ok. I tried creating a new collection on a new page, but it's still linking me to /en pages. I don't have any multi language stuff (starter plan) so idk where this could come from.

[M-lime]

The scientific method joke was genius 😂🤣

So i cannot use a custom button or link block on my static home page to link to CMS pages wherever i want? I must place it inside a Collection List Block on my static home page? I can only link to static pages when i try to. So a button or linkblock in my navbar is completly useless. Am I missing something?
