I'm thrilled to announce a game-changing feature that's just landed on Wisp: Custom Content Types!
This powerful new addition empowers you to create and manage diverse content beyond traditional blog posts and articles. Let's dive into what this means for you and your website.
What are Custom Content Types?
Custom Content Types allow you to define and create specialized content structures tailored to your specific needs. Whether you're showcasing products, events, projects, or anything else you can imagine, Custom Content Types give you the flexibility to build it all within Wisp.
Getting Started with Custom Content Types
Access the Dashboard: Head over to your Wisp dashboard.
Find the Custom Content Manager: You'll see a new section dedicated to managing your custom content.
Create a Content Collection: Start by defining a new content type and adding the necessary fields.
Add Content: Once your content type is set up, use the content manager to create new entries.
Seamless Integration with Existing Projects
For those already using our JavaScript SDK, you're in luck! After a quick client upgrade, you can continue using the SDK with your new custom content types. Here's a quick example of how to fetch and populate a changelog page:

contentTypeSlug: "changelog",
limit: "all",
});We've Put It to the Test
We've already implemented Custom Content Types on our own blog by creating our own changelog.
