Assets
Updated: 4/9/2024
Assets are reusable content in Omni CMS that provide a single source of content for use on multiple pages. When the asset is edited and published, the content automatically updates on each page the asset was placed on. The different types of assets also allow for some more complicated types of content than you can create in the page editor. You cannot edit an asset on a page, but must open the original asset to make and save any changes.
Image Gallery
Creating an image gallery asset is a three-step process. First, create the asset, where you fill out basic information. Then, upload the images into the asset, sort, and caption them before saving and publishing.
