Webstudio seems amazing but I'm having a hard time choosing a CMS. This was easy on Webflow! We need a cheap, easy, and quick way to manage blog post type pages with rich text and images. Coda seemed like the best option, with both tabular and blogging-style views, but apparently has some issues: https://github.com/webstudio-is/webstudio/issues/3708

What is the current recommendation?

For context, we are a small team of mostly non-technical designers helping small businesses with way too premium sites for way too affordable prices 😹 on the LTD2 plan.

Can images be uploaded through webhook forms?

Relume has a browser extension that syncs styles from classes with the same name in Webflow. Webstudio duplicates the token if anything is different, resulting in a confusing mess of tokens with the same names when copy pasting. This happens on Craft-based sections in marketplace templates.

We want to build good sites fast. That requires a working component library. Nothing really works at the moment. We started building our own, but it is a chore. A class sync feature would allow us to use any component from anywhere and not worry about styles changing or duplicate tokens.

We're desperate enough to attempt making our own extension with ChatGPT. Just thought I'd check with you guys first.

There a lot of templates and libraries built on Webflow. For example, Relume is nice for quick AI wireframing. Webstudio could leverage these more effectively if the copy/paste process was smoother with the Craft ecosystem. Most users coming from Webflow's ecosystem will have "messy" sites that aren't compatible with Craft. I have three ideas:
1 - Convert to Craft option for Client-First projects and major design systems (Anything non-standard isn't converted)
2 - Convert to local option for styles that aren't repeated
3 - Don't add WF class names to the navigator, to reduce confusion & revisions

I can't tell you how to build it, but I think there is a big opportunity to work with the old to ease users into the new.

How would you guys do a pinterest-style masonry layout in Webstudio?

I think there is a large untapped market share of ecommerce websites, agencies, and designers that would become Webstudio users if it offered an ecommerce solution. In that case, I think it should have a much higher priority on the roadmap.

We currently design Shopify templates on Webflow with Liquify. You have a huge opportunity here to offer better ecommerce websites with Webstudio's amazing performance scores and flexibility.

How do I prevent prevent inline playback on mobile with the Vimeo embed? https://help.vimeo.com/hc/en-us/articles/12425812053265-Inline-playback-on-mobile#:~:text=By%20default%2C%20all%20Vimeo%20videos,fullscreen%20button%20on%20the%20player.

I attempted this with CMS but it didn't work: BaserowItem["my video's url"] + "?playsinline=0"

Why does p {margin: 0;} effect all paragraphs, but img {object-fit: cover;} doesn't affect all images?

Hi! Here's what I'm trying to create: Table 1 is a list of blog posts. Table 2 uses a "link to table" array column to list specific blog posts on each row. In Webstudio, I have a Collection to display Table 2's array of selected items from Table 1. Like manually selected related posts.

Problem is, Baserow's array only gives a little bit of data. I can use a few Lookup fields in Baserow to get one piece of that data each, but then I have multiple collections of disassociated data. So I tried to use a formula to combine them, but the results weren't selectable in the WS expression editor. Then I tried to make the Collection list the slugs and make a Resource for each item, but I couldn't select the Collection's data.

How should this be done in WS? There are a lot of other use cases where this would be needed, so the question is more conceptual.

Local styles can be converted to tokens. What if it worked the other way as well? This would also be an easy way to combine tokens, which I've found myself needing with Webflow conversions

Webstudio is so much easier than Webflow that Figma may be less necessary. In that case you are sort of a competitor to Figma for web design. I think most Webflow professionals design in Figma. With that in mind, we would love for you to integrate more of Figma's controls, like:

ctrl + alt + g to wrap in box
ctrl + shift + g to unwrap
arrow keys to move objects within parents
alt + drag to duplicate
ctrl + alt + c to copy properties
ctrl + alt + v to paste properties

Thanks for hearing me out 🤙

Why does Webstudio add 1em top and bottom margin to text? I find myself having to add a class to every piece of text to clear or modify that style.

Seems like a common feature we had in Webflow. What is the recommended solution?

Context: I'm struggling to get a working CMS together with Baserow. I added a single select column to set the status as Published, Draft, or Unpublished. Now I'm trying to make that actually work in Webstudio.

My first thought was to incorporate published domain items to this tip from @John Siciliano
Add to the resource: system.origin === "<staging domain>" ? <filter for any content> : <filter only published content>
But that only removed the content.

I then realized there's no 404 page. I didn't find much info on it except for this thread: https://discord.com/channels/955905230107738152/1282801181051060329

I can keep trying to figure it all out but figured y'all most likely have a go-to solution and I don't need to "reinvent the wheel"

What's the latest on user accounts setups? Would love to transfer over my Memberstack client portal. Researching a switch to Webstudio from Webflow for all of my agency's managed sites. The topic in Discord is all over the place but it seems like it may be possible with Supabase? (A tutorial would be 🔥 )
