If you want to create category pages on your website, consider combining multiple CMS collections. This allows you to filter content to fit the current page with just one template.
CMS Setup
To understand how it works, let's take a simple running-themed blog as an example. This blog has a post grid, post detail page, and author page, where each author’s bio and articles are displayed.
You'll need two collections for this.
articles
: A collection containing post informationauthors
: A collection containing author information
Once an author is assigned to an article, you can update author information in one place.
You can also use the author's slug in the articles
collection to retrieve the author's data from the authors
collection later.
Nested Collections
To display the author’s name on the post detail page, you need to nest collections inside other collections. You can filter data based on the author’s slug to display it on the post page. This approach can be used across different pages such as the article page, and author page, as well.
Benefits of Combining Collections
Combining collections makes it easy to create category pages and filter content according to the current page's conditions.
This technique is very effective and serves as an efficient way to save time when setting up templates and categories on a website.
