3 min 53 sec β€” CMS overview

What you will learn

This lesson is a tour of Studio and the CMS. By the end, you will know where to find the main areas and what each CMS area is for.

Finding your way around Studio

After you select an organisation, use the left-hand navigation to move around Studio. You may only see the areas and actions your permissions allow.For these lessons, everything happens inside CMS.

The areas inside the CMS

Most of these areas are configured for you when your site is built. This overview is so you know what each one does and where to find it β€” later lessons cover the ones you will actually use.
  • Uploads β€” the shared library for images, videos, fonts, documents, and other media used in the CMS.
  • Templates β€” pre-built section layouts provided by inploi. Inserting one creates an independent copy that you can customise on the page.
  • Prefabs β€” saved, reusable sections for content you want to keep in sync across pages. A page uses a live reference; published prefab updates appear everywhere it is used.
  • Themes β€” the style guide for your brand: colours, fonts, typography, and component styles.
  • Pages β€” create, edit, and publish the pages on your careers site.
New terms such as section, column, block, and slug are all defined in the CMS glossary.
Edited for clarity and current terminology.

Prefabs are reusable sections that stay linked to the pages using them. When you update and publish a prefab, its changes appear wherever it is used. Themes hold your site’s visual system, including colours, fonts, typography, and component styles.
