The community members are eager for the upcoming CMS and would like to see a demo before the Appsumo deal expires. One community member explains that the CMS will allow for dynamic pages, where the slug value can be passed into a resource query. They also mention that rich text implementation is in progress. Another community member asks if it will be possible to import thousands of blog posts from a CMS, including one built on a local site like MAMP. The response indicates that the process will depend on the third-party CMS, as most have some form of migration or import feature, though the difficulty may vary.
Im super eager for it too. Answer is very soon but can't give a date.
If you've seen Resources in action you'll get a good idea.
To enable dynamic pages you'll define a path like normal but give it dynamic part eg /posts/:slug and then be able to pass that slug value into your resource query.
So when somebody goes to /posts/my-awesome-post then your query can essentially run get posts where slug == 'my-awesome-post (not actual syntax just sayin).
And voila! You bind the results to page components just like you already do with Resources.
There are other things coming too, mainly rich text implementation so you can handle an incoming html value and style out its children. That's in progress and one of the very last things to finish. 🙂
Let me ask, and I like your course by the way, do you think it'll be possible to import thousands of blog posts from a CMS? what if the CMS is built on a local site like MAMP? Sorry for the question and thank you..
This process will be solely dependent on the 3rd party CMS. Pretty much all of them have some sort of migration CLI/import feature. Some take more work than others though
