Dynamic pages are pages that are generated by the Wix platform based on specific conditions that are set by the user. The most common use for dynamic pages is to create a page that is different for each user that visits it. For example, a user’s profile page on a social networking site would be a dynamic page.
Wix allows you to create dynamic pages using two different methods: the Wix Editor and the Wix Code Editor. Both editors allow you to add dynamic content to your pages, but the Wix Code Editor provides more control over the design and layout of your pages.

To add dynamic content to a page using the Wix Editor, simply click on the “Add” button and select the “Dynamic Page” option. This will insert a placeholder on your page that will be replaced with the dynamic content when the page is viewed.
To add dynamic content to a page using the Wix Code Editor, you need to first add a “Dynamic Page” element to your layout.
This element will act as a container for your dynamic content. Next, you need to add a “Data” element to your layout. This element will fetch the data that will be used to populate your dynamic content. Finally, you need to bind your data to your elements using the “Bind” function.
The “Bind” function takes two arguments: the name of the data element and the name of the HTML element that you want to populate with data. For example, if you have a data element called “name” and an HTML element called “name-display”, you would use the following code to bind them together:
name-display.bind(name);
Now when you view your page, the “name-display” element will be populated with the data from the “name” data element.
Conclusion:
Dynamic pages are a powerful tool that can be used to create custom pages for each user that visits your site. The Wix platform makes it easy to add dynamic content to your pages using either the Wix Editor or the Wix Code Editor.
