Next feature comes from GoodBarber Salvador : CMS.

No need to plug an external source

No need to plug an external source to add content to your app! With the built-in CMS, you can create articles, post videos and add photos to your app, right from your GoodBarber backend.

The built-in CMS is perfect for those who don’t have a blog or any third party solution to publish content, but need to have their own app. For the others, it’s also a good way to offer original content to their app users only.

How to use the CMS?

Go to your backend
>> Menu Content
>> Add section
>> Select photo, video or article section
>> When it's done, select the logo GoodBarber with CMS
>> Give a title to your section
>> Click to the button "Add the section"
Then, come back to your section and spot the new section "GoodBarber CMS", click to the button "View my content"

⚠ You can here, check the "Advanced settings" and activate the search engine in this section and comments.
You will be redirected to the menu CMS.
You can add photos, videos or articles right from your backend, no need to be connected with an external source!
You also will have access to all your CMS sections.

If you have already created a CMS section, go directly in your backend to the menu Content >> CMS
