Recent Changes in Naming and UI Labels in Webflow
Webflow regularly updates its platform to improve the user experience and make it more intuitive for users. Here are some of the recent changes made to the naming and UI labels in Webflow:
Components to Symbols: Previously, components in the Designer were called "Symbols." This change was made to align with industry-standard terminology and make it easier for users who are familiar with other design tools.
Blocks to Template Sections: The term "Blocks" in the Template Library has been changed to "Template Sections." This change clarifies that these sections are pre-designed templates that can be added to your project.
Collections to CMS: Webflow's dynamic content feature was previously referred to as "Collections." Now, it is called "CMS" (Content Management System) to better convey the functionality it offers. This change also brings consistency across Webflow's terminology.
Dynamic List to Collection List: The element used to display dynamic content on a page was called "Dynamic List." It has been renamed to "Collection List" to align with the updated CMS terminology.
Toggle to Switch: The UI toggle switches used for various settings and options have been updated to "Switches." This change was made to align with industry-standard terminology and enhance clarity.
Multi-reference to Multi-reference field: In the CMS, the term "Multi-reference" has been changed to "Multi-reference field" to provide more context and make it clearer for users.
These recent changes in naming and UI labels have been implemented to improve the overall user experience and make it easier for both new and existing users to navigate and understand the platform.
