The constructor allows you to create new Content-types (scheme): collections, single pages, and components. Components do not exist independently; they are always inserted within collections and single pages.

Creating a collection

1. For this, you need to click on the + button next to the content type name.

   

2. A modal window opens where you need to enter a name for the collection. The slug will be generated automatically. If desired, you can choose one of the Templates with preset fields. Currently, only the Category option is available.

   

3. Fill in the data. Click the Next button. The next step will be to add a field. We will skip this step of adding fields. Read more about adding fields at Setting up fields.

   

4. All necessary fields have been added (skipped that). Click save to save the content-type. At this moment, the server will restart to create a new collection. Now this takes 5-6 seconds, after which you need to refresh the page.

   

Creating a single page/component

When creating a single page or component, there will be no option to choose a template. Since the template is only available to collections. In addition, single pages and components do not have a preset Name field. Otherwise, the process is the same.
