Data Sets are a list of customisable features of your website. They are pre-defined, structured content that can be used on one or more pages. On the creation of your website, the Data Set is pre-made by our Web Development team based on the theme and design of your website. Whilst clients cannot create new features, we encourage the creation of your own items to the ready-made data-sets.
Every feature & each of it's categories has a unique ID.
