# Glossary

The terms you'll come across while building your careers site in the CMS, defined once here. Each page links back to this glossary rather than re-explaining the basics.

| Term                  | What it means                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   |
| --------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **CMS**               | Content Management System — the visual page builder in Studio where you create and maintain every page on your careers site. No code required.                                                                                                  |
| **Page**              | A single URL on your site (for example `/about`). Pages hold the content a candidate sees. Managed from **CMS → Pages**.                                                                                                                        |
| **Section**           | A full-width horizontal row of a page. Sections stack vertically and can have their own background colour, image, or video.                                                                                                                     |
| **Column**            | A vertical division within a section, sized on a 12-column grid. You set each column's width separately for desktop, tablet, and mobile.                                                                                                        |
| **Block**             | The actual content inside a column — text, image, video, job search, button, map, and so on.                                                                                                                                                    |
| **Slug**              | The URL path for a page (the part after your domain). `/graduate-roles` is the slug for `yourcareers.com/graduate-roles`. `/` on its own is the home page.                                                                                      |
| **Section ID**        | A unique ID for a section on a page. It can be used for anchor links and scroll navigation, such as `#our-roles`.                                                                                                                               |
| **Label**             | An internal name for a column or block. Labels help editors navigate complex pages and can be used by developers for CSS targeting.                                                                                                             |
| **Search parameter**  | A value added to a URL after `?`, often used to control interactive content such as tabs or filtered views.                                                                                                                                     |
| **Locale**            | The language a page is served in. The default locale has no URL prefix; others are prefixed automatically (for example `/fr-fr/about`).                                                                                                         |
| **Theme**             | The site-wide design system — colours, fonts, typography, and component styles. Changing the theme affects every page at once.                                                                                                                  |
| **Prefab**            | A section saved as a reusable, live-linked component. Editing and publishing the prefab updates it on every page that uses it.                                                                                                                  |
| **Template**          | A pre-built section layout provided by inploi. Inserting a template drops a one-time, fully editable copy into your page.                                                                                                                       |
| **Upload**            | Any media file (image, video, font, document) stored in the Uploads library and reused across the site.                                                                                                                                         |
| **Alt text**          | A public description of an image used by screen readers and search engines. In Studio, this is managed as the asset description.                                                                                                                |
| **Version**           | A saved snapshot of a page or prefab. Every save creates a version, so you can switch back to an earlier one from **History**.                                                                                                                  |
| **Publish**           | Making a saved version live so candidates can see it. Saving alone does not change the live site.                                                                                                                                               |
| **Resource**          | A piece of data a page fetches when it loads — most commonly a single **Job** — so its values can be used in content. Configured in **Settings → Resources**. See [Resources and dynamic pages](/studio/cms/pages/resources-and-dynamic-pages). |
| **Dynamic parameter** | A wildcard part of a slug written with a colon, such as `id` in `/job/:id`. It captures the matching part of the URL so one page can serve many URLs.                                                                                           |
| **Interpolation**     | Dropping a live value into content with double curly braces, such as `{{resources.job.title}}`. The token is replaced with the real value when the page renders.                                                                                |
| **Condition**         | A rule that shows or hides a section, column, block, or field based on live data (for example, a URL parameter or a job field).                                                                                                                 |
