How Do I Use Dynamic Pages in Wix?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 5:51 am

Dynamic pages are one of the most powerful features of Wix. They allow you to change the content of your pages without having to manually edit each page. This means that you can easily add new products, blog posts, or pages to your site without having to update each page individually.

You can also use dynamic pages to create different versions of a page for different visitors. For example, you can create a dynamic page that shows only the products that a visitor has searched for.

Exciting update! We've collaborated with Wix to offer WBI users with a free plan for all website creation needs - Explore the details here.

To use dynamic pages, you first need to create a template. This template will determine what content is shown on your dynamic pages.

To do this, go to the Wix Editor and click on the ‘+Add’ button. From the drop-down menu, select ‘Page’.

On the next screen, select ‘Dynamic Page’ from the list of page types. You will then be prompted to choose a template type.

For most situations, the ‘Standard Template’ will suffice. However, if you are creating a dynamic page for a specific purpose (such as an ecommerce store), you may need to select a different template.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to use dynamic pages in Wix, be aware that there are some potential risks. First, dynamic pages can slow down your site and make it less responsive. Second, dynamic pages can cause problems with search engine optimization (SEO), so it is important to carefully plan your SEO strategy when using dynamic pages. Finally, dynamic pages can also create issues with your site’s navigation, so be sure to test your site thoroughly before launch.

Once you have selected a template, you can start adding content to your dynamic page. To do this, click on the ‘+Add’ button and select the type of content you want to add. This could be text, images, videos, forms, or anything else that is supported by Wix.

Once you have added all of the content you want to your dynamic page, you can then preview it by clicking on the ‘Preview’ button at the top of the Editor. This will allow you to see how your page will look when it is published.

If you are happy with how your dynamic page looks, you can then publish it by clicking on the ‘Publish’ button at the top of the Editor.

Conclusion
Dynamic pages are an extremely powerful tool that allows you to easily add and update content on your website. They are perfect for situations where you need to frequently add new products or blog posts.

To use dynamic pages, simply create a template and then add your desired content. You can then preview and publish your page when you are finished.
