What would a collection be without content? A swimming pool without water!
Create a page
You can add a page from the home page of your collection by clicking on the Create button. A page opens and allows you to add :
A cover image (in PNG, JPG, or GIF format and less than 5 MB in size). The recommended pixel size is displayed. The image is not mandatory.
A title (maximum 140 characters). The title is mandatory.
A tag. The tag is not mandatory. See this page for more information on tags in pages.
Different lines of content: a block is present by default (adding content in this first block is mandatory), and you can add other lines containing text, links, or images.
Adding content to a block
To add content to your homepage, you must first add a content block. All content must be placed within a block, and you cannot add content outside of a block.
Click on the block in which you want to add content.
You can add the following types of content to a block from the block's edit bar:
1. Add text
By default, a new frame will always be a text field.
Write the desired text and double-click on it to access the formatting bar. Via the formatting, you can align your text to an edge or to the centre of the frame, justify it, and present it as a bulleted or numbered list, or as a quote.
2. Adding an image or a gif
Click on
Import an imageto import an image or gif stored on your device. The size of the image should not exceed 5 MB.Click on
From a linkto import an image associated with a URL address.
It is possible to add a link behind an image. To do this, click on the share icon that appears at the top right of the image when you move the mouse over it.
When importing an image or GIF, its size will default to the width of the block. However, you can change its size by dragging one of the grey sidebars around it.
3. Embedding external content
You can easily embed hundreds of external contents (such as a Typeform, Tweets, Youtube videos, etc) in a block by clicking on the <> button.
The content to be integrated must be a URL link of type "http://" or "https://" to be valid.
With the drop-down menu, you can specify the source of this content, for example, Loom, Vimeo or Typeform. If the source of the content you wish to add does not belong to this list, feel free to try to integrate it anyway via the <> Other option. Depending on the content you want to embed, make sure its privacy settings allow its accessibility from a MeltingSpot page.
Should you want to embed a Vimeo video with privacy settings set to "unlisted", you would need to add to the authorized domains list go.meltingspot.io and cdn.iframe.ly 🎥
Editing a block
When adding content to a block, the Undo and Redo buttons in the edit bar allow you to undo your actions.
After you have made changes to a block and clicked on the Save button, if you want to make further edits, you can easily access the edit bar by following these steps:
Click on the
Editbutton located at the top right of the homepage.Then, click on the desired block that you wish to edit.
This will open up the edit bar for that specific block, allowing you to make additional modifications or updates as needed.
By following this process, you can seamlessly continue editing and refining the content within your blocks whenever necessary.

Once your page is completed, you have the choice between two buttons at the top right of the editor to save it:
The
Publishbutton: your page will then be visible to members of the collection.The
Save as draftbutton: your page will not be visible to the collection members, but will be saved for the admins! Take a look at this section to learn more about the draft mode.
You can now return to your Collections page, and the new page is displayed!
Delete a page
By clicking on it, a confirmation window will open to validate your choice: click on Validate and the page will be deleted from your collection.
Please note: this decision is final and irreversible.
