CMS (Pages)

Venditan Commerce contains an in-built Content Management System (CMS) that supports custom Page Templates and block-builder functionality so your team can create new content on demand.


Using our Templates, Blocks and Placeholders

Our CMS has three core building elements: Templates, Blocks, and Placeholders.

Example

Template

Templates are pre-configured page types for your different content objectives.

A CMS built for your business

During your switch to Venditan Commerce we create the Templates, Blocks, and Placeholders you need, empowering you to create content freely without asking us for help.

This process is straightforward and quick, thanks to our extensive library of pre-developed Blocks, many of which will suit your requirements straight out of the box.


Create new Pages using block-builder functionality

Use your Templates, Blocks, and Placeholders to create new Pages on demand.

When creating a new Page, you’re first asked to input the Page Title and URL, then choose a Template for the Page.

Once the Template is confirmed, you can add Blocks to the page.

Blocks come with customisation settings, allowing you to control variables like element colours, padding widths, and alignments, as well as core content like text and images.

Unlimited Templates and Blocks

Your website can have an unlimited number of Templates and Blocks. If you need new ones in the future, we can provide them. If you have unique content objectives uncovered by our existing Blocks, we can create them, too.

After workshopping your content requirements, we will provide you with the perfect CMS to manage your new eCommerce website independently.


Preview Pages before publishing them

Our CMS includes a multi-device previewing system that allows you to review your page across the following dimensions:

  • Desktop (1250px x 1000px)

  • Tablet (1000px x 700px)

  • Mobile - Portrait (3250px x 500px)

  • Mobile - Landscape (568px x 300px)
