User interface overview

Wagtail provides a versatile content management system interface designed to streamline content creation and organisation. Key features include:

 

  • Dashboard: The central hub for managing content, displaying an overview of moderation tasks, recent edits, and locked pages. Users can customise their dashboard views based on roles and permissions.
  • Sidebar navigation: A collapsible menu offering quick access to sections like search, documents, snippets, forms, reports, and settings. This ensures efficient navigation across the platform.
  • Explorer: Facilitates hierarchical content management. It allows users to manage parent-child relationships, reorder pages, and quickly access editing options through an intuitive tree structure.
  • Content editor: Wagtail’s editor allows an easy way to create content for different page types. Users can save content as a draft and collaborate with other team members before publishing it.

Upon signing in, the dashboard is presented.
