Core Concepts

Creating Content

With a content model and media in place, you can start creating content items. Each item is an instance of a model — like a single blog post or a single product.

Creating a Content Item

Follow these steps to create your first content item in CloudSource CMS.

Step by step

1

Go to Content in the sidebar

Open the Content section from the main navigation in the admin panel.
2

Click “New” and select your content model

For example, choose Blog Post from the dropdown to create a new blog entry.
3

Fill in the fields

Type a title, write body text, pick a hero image from the media picker — each field matches the structure you defined in your content model.
4

Click Save

Your item is saved as a Draft by default. It will not be publicly available until you explicitly publish it.

Tip: Saving as a Draft lets you continue editing without affecting your live site. Publish when you're ready.

Built-in Pickers

When you click on a media or relation field, a picker opens so you can browse and select the right asset or content item.

Media Picker

Browse uploaded files with thumbnails. Select one or multiple depending on the field type.

Relation Picker

Search and link to other content items. Perfect for author, category, or tag references.
