Optimizely CMS - Learning by Doing: EP05 - Create Content Tree: Demo

 

Episode 5 is Live!!

The latest installment of my Learning by Doing: Build Series on Optimizely CMS 12 is now available on YouTube!

 

This video demonstrates how to create a content tree in Optimizely CMS, building on content models from the previous episode Episode 4.

It covers two main parts:

• Configuring Allowed Content Types: 

Learn how to configure Allowed Content Types to control which page types can be nested under others. 

The demo shows how to set restrictions on which content types can be created under specific parent pages (e.g., a recipe page can only be added under a recipe listing page, not directly under the homepage). 

This ensures, logical and structured content hierarchy.

• Creating the Content Tree: 

Watch as we create a sample content structure for a fictional website called Taste Trail. 

This includes setting up the homepage, an "About Us" standard page, a "Recipes" listing page, and a sample recipe page, demonstrating how to add blocks (ingredients, steps, and media) to the page (recipe).
