[Support request] In Theory: Using Content Templates to streamline Landing Page Creation?

[Tom]

If I am totally out of scope – please let me know. Absolutely won’t be offended.

With our current website – I have a half dozen, or more, Landing Pages to help track digital & non-digital advertising.

With our new website – it dawned on me, with a combination of Generate Press/CPT UI/Adv. Custom Fields, that there MIGHT be a way to quickly build Landing Pages.

It would take some work INITIALLY, but my thought process is:
Build a CPT: Landing Pages
Add Taxonomy: Job Position [Welder, Painter, Mechanic, and so on]
Add Taxonomy: Advertising Media [Facebook, Google, Billboard, etc]
Build 3 or 4 GP Content Templates

Then
As I create a Landing page – it makes it more of a “1,2,3-GO!” process as opposed to spend a couple hours every time I need to create a landing page.

So – I’m asking GP folks and anyone with experience:

• Has anyone tried to do something like this?
• Is my thought process in the ballpark?
• Is there a smarter way?

That’s it. Again – if I’m out-of-scope, no harm. Appreciate it.
Thanks!

Hi Tom,

What kind of page are you referring to as a landing page?

A static page? or an archive page? or something else?

[Tom]

Hi Ying,

Just a normal page.

My digital ads would lead to these landing pages – which would lead to a job application – then to a Thank You page which would trigger a conversion.

If it’s a static page, you don’t need to use any block element – content template, you can build the page as you want.

If you are going to have multiple static pages with similar styles/layouts, you can copy the entire page content and paste it into a new page.

The below video shows how to copy/paste content in block editor:
