Create a collection in the Pixelesq CMS

Create it yourself

1. In the sidebar, click collections. Click create collection, or open the collection switcher and choose create new collection.
2. Choose Manual.
3. Type a Collection Name. The Slug fills in from it.
4. Tick Has Pages if each entry needs its own page, like a blog post.
5. Click submit. The template editor opens next.

Or let Pixel suggest the fields

1. In Create a collection, choose Create with.
2. Fill in the name, slug and Has Pages, pick a Collection Type, add a short description if you like, and click submit.
3. Pixel recommends 8 to 15 fields. Untick the ones you don't want, or double-click a field to edit it, then click Add Selected Fields.
4. Click Publish Schema & Exit.

Limits

• A collection's name, slug and Has Pages setting can't be changed later.
• Every collection starts with the built-in Name and Slug fields.
• Pixel's suggestions don't include Reference or Related fields. Add those yourself.
• Each plan has a collection limit: 5 on Launch, 25 on Grow and 100 on Scale.

Common questions

What does "Failed to create collection" mean?

The slug is probably taken by another collection. Choose a different slug.

Why do I see "Time to upgrade!"?

You've reached your plan's collection limit. Upgrade, or delete a collection you no longer use.

Should my collection have pages?

Turn on Has Pages when each entry needs its own address. See How collections, entries and entry pages work.
