Collections and search
Ready-made collections.
Start a team, events, products, job openings, documents, branches or an official notice board in one click – with fields, item pages, a list page and the features that keep them current.
Collections → Start from a ready-made collection creates a collection that already knows its job: a team, branches, services, products, references, a price list, events, questions and answers, job openings, machines, courses, documents or an official notice board.
What you get
- The fields it needs, with fixed keys (
{{start}},{{price}},{{location}}…), item pages and structured data for search engines. - A hidden page at the collection's address that lists the items as cards – add a sentence on top and publish it.
- Where it makes sense, the page of a hidden or deleted item leads to the list page instead of “page not found”.
- Everything stays editable: rename fields, add your own, change the item template in the builder.
Claude does the same with create_collection and a preset; list_collection_presets lists them with instructions.
New field types

| Choice from options | One of the options you list. |
| Parameters | One Name: value per line – shown as a table and compared between products. |
| Variants | One name | code | price per line. |
Events and courses
- The list shows only what is still to come; past events go to a second hidden page,
/<address>-archive. - A repeating event (a weekly class) is one item: when an occurrence ends, it moves to the next date by itself until Repeats until.
- Add to calendar on each event page, and
/<address>.icsto subscribe to the whole calendar. - The registration form on the event page closes when the capacity is taken, when the registration deadline passes and after the event. Registrations arrive in Enquiries.
Products without a checkout
- Parameters, variants with codes and prices, a datasheet.
- Add to enquiry collects products in the visitor's browser; the form under the product list sends them as one enquiry. The site checks every line against your products.
- Visitors tick Compare on up to four products and see their parameters side by side.
Job openings
- Always set True until to the closing date: the job hides itself afterwards and search engines see when it closes.
- Each job page has an application form with a CV. Enquiries → Delete job applications after N months sets how long applications are kept.
Documents
- When you replace a document's file, the previous one is kept in its version history.
/<address>/<document>/latestalways leads to the current file – link to it from anywhere – and counts the downloads.- A form can e-mail a file after the sign-up (the form's option After sending, e-mail this file).
Branches
Each branch has its address, location, phone and opening hours, and search engines get it as a local business. The Store locator element lists them with a search box, Nearest to me and a map that loads only after a click.
Official notice board
- The board shows notices between their posting and takedown dates; the archive page shows the taken-down ones.
- Notices are never deleted, and every change, posting and takedown is recorded. The log is under the notice and can be downloaded as CSV.
Screen mode
Settings → General → Screen mode gives a secret address for a TV in a reception or showroom: news, upcoming events and today's opening hours, rotating on their own.
