Overview

The **Pages** module is a centralized content management system designed for building, managing, and optimizing the structural pages of your Wapto instance. This module is essential for maintaining dynamic landing pages, legal documentation (Privacy Policy, Terms of Service), and custom promotional content.

Beyond simple content editing, the module provides robust SEO governance, allowing administrators to define metadata, optimize URLs (slugs), and configure social sharing assets to ensure maximum visibility across search engines and social platforms.

Key Features

  • Dynamic Content Authoring: Use a high-fidelity rich-text and HTML editor to build complex layouts with ease.
  • SEO-Friendly Slugs: Automatically generate or manually refine URL paths for improved search rankings.
  • Granular Metadata Control: Define page-specific titles, descriptions, and meta-images for precise social sharing context.

  • Centralized Audit: Quickly locate, edit, or delete pages from a unified administrative list.
