We've been interviewing users over the past weeks to understand where the deco.cx Admin experience needs improvement. One recurring theme: navigating pages and sections gets harder as your site grows. Finding what you changed, locating frequently-used pages, and keeping track of edits before publishing were common pain points.
This is the first in a series of regular product updates we're committing to. We want to keep you informed about what's changing in our products, starting with deco.cx.
Previously, you had to wait until the publish screen to see a full list of what you'd changed. This made it easy to lose track of edits during longer work sessions.
We've added a Modified tab to every listing view in the Admin: Pages, Sections, Loaders, and Actions. As you edit content, changes appear in this tab immediately. A badge in the sidebar shows the count of uncommitted changes.
This means you can review your changes while navigating, without interrupting your workflow to check the publish screen.
Sites with many pages often have a handful that are edited frequently: the homepage, header, footer, key landing pages. Scrolling through a long list to find them slows things down.
You can now pin any page or section by clicking the pin icon. Pinned items stay at the top of the list. Your homepage is auto-pinned by default. Pins persist across sessions.
Sections now default to table view instead of grid. This displays more information at a glance: the section name, its folder path, and modification status.
At the root level, you see all modified and pinned sections across every folder. Inside a folder, you see that folder's contents. Search filters across Pinned, Modified, and All items.
These changes are live now in the deco.cx Admin.
We're continuing to interview users and prioritize improvements based on what we're hearing. If you have feedback or run into issues, reach out on Discord.
