Content Management

Full-page content editor, post statuses, categories, tags, media uploader, and SEO.

Content Management

Encrypt CMS provides a dedicated, full-page content editing workspace engineered for writers, editors, and publishers.

1. Post Management (/admin/posts)

The posts table displays your articles with real-time status filtering:

  • All: View all non-trashed posts.
  • Published: Publicly visible articles live on your website.
  • Draft: Work-in-progress content visible only to authenticated authors and administrators.
  • Trash: Soft-deleted articles retained for 30 days before permanent deletion.

Bulk Actions & Filtering

Select multiple posts to apply bulk actions:

  • Move to Trash
  • Restore from Trash
  • Delete Permanently
  • Filter by Category or Date

2. The Full-Page Content Editor

Navigating to Add New Post (/admin/posts/create) or editing an existing post opens the full-page editor interface:

  • Title Field: Large auto-expanding title input.
  • Permalink Slug Preview: Displays the live URL preview with an inline slug editor.
  • WYSIWYG Formatting Toolbar: Headings (H2, H3, H4), bold, italic, strikethrough, blockquotes, ordered/unordered lists, code snippets, horizontal rules, and link insertions.
  • Word & Character Counter: Real-time metrics updating as you type.

3. Taxonomies: Categories & Tags

The right sidebar provides hierarchical categorization backed by the taxonomies database table:

  • Categories (/admin/posts/categories): Hierarchical taxonomy supporting parent-child relationships (e.g., Technology > Security).
  • Tags (/admin/posts/tags): Flat, non-hierarchical keyword taxonomy.
  • Inline Creation: Add new categories or tags directly from the editor without navigating away.

4. Media Library & Featured Images

Clicking Set Featured Image opens the integrated modal media picker:

  • Select an existing image from your library or drag-and-drop a new image directly into the modal.
  • Supports automatic thumbnail generation and dimension extraction.
  • Uploaded assets are organized by year and month (storage/uploads/YYYY/MM/).
  • Secure file validation checks magic bytes via fileinfo to prevent executable script uploads.

5. Built-in SEO Meta Box

Every post and page includes a dedicated SEO optimization box:

  • Custom Meta Title: Overrides default site title format if desired.
  • Meta Description: Custom snippet for search engine search snippets.
  • Robots Directives: Toggle noindex or nofollow per individual post.
  • SERP Preview: Real-time visual simulation of how the page appears in Google search results on desktop and mobile devices.
