Category for blog posts

[cristiandrei1234]

Hello I saw, that there is no category creation/selection in the blog section. Also a new feature could be to add custom fields and different types of archives (ex. portofolio or team).

@cristiandrei1234 ah you're right, i'll put that into place later this week.

About archives, what do you mean specifically? can you give me an example?

[cristiandrei1234]

I can give you a reference compared to WordPress to understand better what I mean->

According to WordPress Codex, “Custom Post Types” also known as “Custom Content Types” is the specific type of post types that can be added to your WordPress using a simple function called the register_post_type(). The function allows you to add the new custom post type in accordance with a number of specifics such as supported features, availability, and labels.

Or in Webflow are called CMS Collections

A collection is like a database — it's where content can be stored and referenced throughout a project dynamically. Different collections signify different content types, and an individual piece of content within a collection is called a collection item. For example, you can have a collection of blog posts, authors, clients, projects, and so on. For Ecommerce projects, you’ll also have collections for products and categories.

Based on those definitions Factor already has the concept of post types. That's how it does everything with a single collection.

I can easily add category functionality to blog posts since the groundwork is already done; the option is just missing.

If I understand you correctly, you are just waiting to see all the plugins that Factor is going to enable... as an example we have a jobs plugin that looks like this:

On the backend it looks like this:

We have this and a bunch of stuff coming, if you need more detail let me know!

Yes, this is what I mean.

Also don`t forget Custom Fields, for the extra type of post types.
Example to portfolio, or team, people wants to define different content than a normal blog.

Sure, thats all in place already. I'd be curious to know exactly what you are looking for... i will help you get it.

I am looking at your CMS to see if it can replace WordPress in my work where it`s possible.
