Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Frontend View For Headless CMS

Yes. It only rewrites admin links to URLs you configure. Your frontend can be built with Next.js, Nuxt, Gatsby, Astro, React, Vue, or any other stack.

After activation, open Frontend View Settings and enter your frontend site URL. Optionally enable frontend redirects, a custom preview path, set the author slug, and map taxonomy or CPT path segments to match your frontend routing.

Admin, REST API, GraphQL, feeds, sitemaps, previews, login, and similar backend endpoints are never redirected. The option is off by default.

Yes. Public custom post types shown in the admin UI appear under Post type / CPT slug overrides, where you can set a custom segment or enable Empty slug to drop the CPT base from links.

Go to Frontend View Settings and enter the full URL of your frontend (for example https://www.example.com).
