Understanding Items vs Details Pages

Your widget has two types of views that work together

Item List

The item list is the main view of your widget. It displays all your records in a browsable format — whether as a list, cards, or table. This is what visitors see first when they load your widget.

Think of it like a directory or catalogue page where visitors can browse and scan through multiple items at once.

Details Page

The details page is a dedicated page for each individual record. When enabled, visitors can click on any item in the list to open its full details on a separate page.

Think of it like clicking on a product in a shop to see its full description, images, and specifications.

Managing Pages

You can enable or disable each page independently using the page settings button (cog icon) next to the Items List / Details Page toggle in the Content tab.

• Items List — enabled by default. Disable to hide the list page from visitors.
• Details Page — disabled by default. Enable to allow visitors to click through to individual records.

Disabling the Items List

When you disable the items list page:

• Visitors who navigate to your root URL will see a “Page Not Available” message
• Detail pages will not show a back button — visitors can only access individual pages via direct URLs
• The root URL is removed from your sitemap

This is useful when you want to use your widget as a collection of standalone pages rather than a browsable directory. Combined with password protection, this creates a “private pages” pattern where each page is only accessible to people with the direct link.

Enabling the Details Page

1. Open the page settings using the cog icon next to the view toggle in the Content tab
2. Toggle Details Page on
3. Configure the URL slug column — select which column to use for detail page URLs. Values should be unique to ensure each item has its own URL.

Show Other Items on the details page

Display related or random items at the bottom of detail pages:

• Section title — customise the heading (e.g., “Related Items”, “More Products”)
• Number of items — show 1-12 items
• Filter method:
  • Random — show random items from your data
  • By Column — show items that share the same value in a specific column
