Hi all,
Disappointingly I understand there is no nested collections feature for Webflow CMS. I’ve come across some workarounds but I’m not sure if they will work for my website. Would appreciate some guidance
Context:
I’m investigating migrating the content from an existing Wordpress site to Webflow. No issue downloading the CMS content and uploading to Webflow. The issue lies in the CMS structure and how that can be replicated in Webflow.
The site has a features section which is set up with a tiered/folder structure:
-
> List of feature categories (.../features...)
-
> List of features within category (.../feature-category...)
-
> Feature page (.../feature...)
The goal is to:
A) Import all content via CSV upload
B) Maintain URL structure of the existing site
C) Have a breadcrumb nav for each feature page
D) Have everything set up so that a non-developer can make changes without too much issue
From what I understand I can’t achieve B without creating separate collections for all 11 feature categories. I also don’t think it’s possible to put a list (collection list) of features on each feature category page that is determined by the collection item (appropriate collection list on a collection list item).
I’m a huge fan of Webflow and would love to use it as the solution for our new site, the alternative sadly is staying with Wordpress and likely not migrating until we do another redesign in several years from now
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
