In Webflow, is there any way for me to hand over a website to a client so they can add new pages from the editor, without relying on me to add them from the designer?

Yes, in Webflow you can give your clients the ability to add new pages from the editor without relying on you. This can be done by following these steps:
- Set up a CMS Collection:
- In the Webflow Designer, go to the CMS tab and click on "Add Collection".
- Define the fields for the collection, such as title, content, images, etc. This will determine the content that the client can add to the new pages.
- Create a Template Page:
- Design a template page using the Designer. This template will determine the layout and structure of the new pages that the client will create.
- Connect the template to the CMS Collection by selecting the collection in the "Collection" dropdown in the right sidebar.
- Enable CMS editor access for the client:
- In the Webflow Dashboard, go to the "Project Settings" of the specific website.
- Under the "Editor" tab, you can set up Editor access for your client by entering their email address and assigning them the desired permissions.
- Add new pages from the editor:
- Once the client has access, they can go to the Editor and navigate to the CMS Collection.
- They can then click on "Add New ..." to create a new page using the template you designed.
- The client can add content to the fields defined in the CMS Collection, customize the layout, and even publish the page.
By following these steps, you can empower your clients to add new pages to their website using the Webflow Editor, without having to rely on you to do it from the Designer.
