Database Schema

projects Collection

{
  title: "GIS Mapping Platform",
  category: "GIS",
  description: "Interactive mapping solution...",
  thumbnailUrl: "https://...",
  galleryUrls: ["https://...", "https://..."],
  fullDescription: "<h2>Overview</h2>...",
  customSlug: "gis-mapping-platform",
  useProjectPrefix: true,
  projectLink: "https://example.com",
  projectDetails: [
    "Client: ABC Corp",

  • Other projects
  • Blog posts
  • Static pages
  • Shortlinks
When creating a custom slug, the system checks for conflicts and warns you.

Tips

Use descriptive slugs like gis-mapping-platform instead of project-1 for better SEO.
Keep thumbnails at 800×600px for consistent card displays.
