With Pages, you can create, edit, and manage content pages in your marketplace directly from Console. Pages lets you create and review content changes in development mode before making them available in your live marketplace.
What you can do with Pages
With Pages, you can create and edit content pages in Sharetribe. Landing pages, About pages, FAQs, or blog posts are all examples of content pages created by you, the marketplace operator.
On content pages, you can provide information about how your marketplace works. You can also use Pages to create alternative landing pages for different user groups, for search engine optimization (SEO) or paid advertising purposes, or even create a simple blog.
Any Sharetribe marketplace starts with four default pages: an About page, the Landing page, Privacy policy, and Terms of service. Pages lets you edit these default pages, but, with the exception of the About Page, they cannot be removed. In addition to the default pages, you can add and edit any number of custom content pages.
How Pages works
Find Pages in Console in Content > Pages. Each content page is built using a combination of Sections and Blocks. Sections define the different content areas and their layout. Blocks contain the information presented within a section. Blocks are made up of multiple different types of content, like text, images or embedded video.
The content you create in Pages displays in your marketplace page. Its layout follows the default Sharetribe design. If you want to change the default layout and design, this is possible with code customizaton.
While you're building your marketplace, use Pages in your Test environment to create your content. Learn more about environments in Console.
After your marketplace goes live to real users, you should continue to use the Test environment to make changes to your published marketplace content and preview how they look in your Test marketplace. When ready, you copy the finished changes from your Test environment to your Live environment.
