Why an element appears on all CMS pages

Learn why the same element appears across CMS pages and how to connect it to CMS content.

If the same content appears on every CMS page, the element is likely using static content instead of a CMS field.

Why this happens

CMS pages act as templates for dynamic content. When you add text, an image, or a video directly to a CMS page, that content becomes part of the template.

Because every CMS item uses the same page template, any unlinked static element appears on every CMS page.

How to fix it

  1. Select the element that appears on every CMS page.

  2. Connect the element to the correct CMS field.

  3. Repeat this for any text, image, video, or media element that should change per CMS item.

  4. Preview different CMS pages to confirm each page shows its own content.

FAQ

  • Why does my image appear on every CMS page?

    The image was likely added directly to the CMS page instead of being connected to an image field. Connect the image element to the correct CMS field so each CMS item can display its own image.

  • Can I keep the same content on every CMS page?

    Yes. Leave the element unlinked if you want it to appear the same across all CMS pages.

  • What should I do if the content is still the same?

    Check that the element is connected to the right CMS field and that each CMS item has unique content in that field.
