Create your first page

You will create a new page, add a Row with two Widgets, and publish it live. When you finish, the page is reachable at /your-first-page and visible to visitors.

What you'll need

  • A Backend account with editor or admin permission.
  • 10 minutes.

1. Open Page Management

Click Page Management in the sidebar. The page list opens.

Every public page of your site lives here.

2. Add a new page

Click Add page in the top right. A modal opens. Fill in Title and Identifier (the latter becomes the URL slug), then click Save.

Title and Identifier are the two required fields.

URL slug rules

The slug uses lowercase letters, digits, and hyphens only. Avoid umlauts, spaces, and special characters — they break in URLs. If you type Über uns in the title, set the slug to ueber-uns manually.

3. Open the Pagebuilder

The new page appears at the top of the list. Click Build page on its row. The Pagebuilder opens with an empty page.

4. Add your first Row

Click Add Section in the empty state (or the +-icon in the structure tree). Pick a layout — a single Column spans the full width; a two-column Row splits it 50/50.

6. Add an Image Widget
