Tips & Tricks

Handy tips to work more efficiently with the CMS.

Work faster

• Use the search bar on every page to quickly find items • Collapse the sidebar for more workspace • Use templates when creating new pages • Copy media URLs directly from the media library

Best practices for content

• Write short, clear texts – visitors scan more than they read • Use headings and paragraphs to break up text • Always add alt text to images (good for SEO and accessibility) • Check your page on mobile via the preview function

Optimising images

• Use WebP format for the smallest file size • Scale images to the correct dimensions before uploading • Hero images: at least 1920x1080 pixels • Thumbnails and icons: 400x400 pixels is sufficient • Keep files under 2 MB for fast loading times

SEO tips

• Always fill in the SEO title and description per page • Use descriptive slugs (e.g. "our-services" instead of "page-1") • Add an OG Image so your page looks good on social media • Make sure your sitemap is enabled in the settings
