What Is a Content Collection in Wix?

Last updated on January 5, 2023 @ 11:53 am

A content collection is a type of Wix page that allows you to easily add and manage a large amount of content on your website. Content collections are perfect for creating online stores, portfolios, blogs, or any other type of website that requires frequent updates.

There are two types of content collections: dynamic pages and static pages. Dynamic pages are automatically generated by Wix and updated whenever you add or remove items from your collection.

GREAT NEWS:

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

Static pages are created manually and not updated automatically.

PRO TIP: If you are not careful, a content collection in Wix can be a very dangerous thing. They can easily take over your entire website and make it their own. It is important to be aware of what they are and how to avoid them.

To create a content collection:

  1. Log in to your Wix account and go to the Editor.
  2. Click the + Add button in the left sidebar and select More.

  4. Select the type of collection you want to create.
  5. Give your collection a name and click Create.
  6. Add items to your collection by clicking the + Add button.
  7. To edit an item, hover over it and click the pencil icon.
  8. To delete an item, hover over it and click the trash can icon.
  9. When you’re finished, click Save & Publish in the top right corner of the Editor.
