Content Types

Overview 

Websites are built using many different components, such as banners, buttons, and message areas, etc. In Cascade CMS, these components are called content types. As a content editor, you can create and edit a variety of content types to build your pages.

Cascade CMS offers different content types depending on whether you are working on a Landing Page or an Interior Page. Many are available on both templates, but some are template-specific. For details, see Landing vs. Interior Page.

When adding a content type, be sure to complete all fields. Some fields will still publish even if left blank, so filling everything out ensures your content displays correctly.

Below, you’ll find tutorials and lists of the content types available for each page template.
