Has anyone experienced a reduction in the number of fields allowed per CMS collection item in Webflow recently?
Yes, there have been recent changes to the number of fields allowed per CMS collection item in Webflow. Previously, Webflow allowed a maximum of 50 fields per collection item. However, they have recently updated their system and reduced the limit to 30 fields per collection item.
This change has been made to optimize the performance of the CMS editor and improve the overall efficiency of managing large and complex projects. By limiting the number of fields, Webflow aims to ensure a smoother and faster editing experience for users.
It's important to note that when considering the number of fields, you should take into account the structure and organization of your content. Simplifying and consolidating your fields can help improve the accessibility and usability of your CMS collections.
In order to make the most of the available fields, here are a few tips:
Group related data: Group related information together within a single field, using structure and organization to your advantage. For example, instead of using multiple fields for a name (first name, last name), you can use a single field with label and placeholder options to guide users.
Utilize multi-reference fields: If you find yourself running out of fields, consider using multi-reference fields to establish relationships between different collections. This allows you to link multiple items together without the need for additional fields.
Use rich text fields: Rich text fields can be a powerful tool to consolidate multiple pieces of content into a single field. By utilizing headings, paragraphs, and formatting options, you can create structured content within a single field.
By keeping these tips in mind and organizing your content efficiently, you can work within the new limit of 30 fields per CMS collection item in Webflow while still maintaining the functionality and flexibility of your website.
