# Building Pages and Deep Dive into Modular Content

17m 56s

This is a heavy and packed video, so grab a coffee! We're going to be walking through 4 common approaches that we ourselves take at DatoCMS, when working with the CMS and building pages:

-   A low-touch CMS page where most of the content is handled via the frontend and code, such as our blog index on `/blog,`
-   An index page for `/case-studies` where we link the page to individual case studies, and drag and drop them based on how we want them to appear on the website,
    
-   A resources page for `/resources` that looks at the option of ordered records, where editors can arrange all the records of a model for when we don't want to have a seperate model to link to, and
-   A homepage, using our marketing website starter in context, to showcase the power of a visual drag-and-drop experience using only modular content and a plugin for live previews.
    

And, and, and, as of Q4, 2024, we've made it EVENNN easier to work with Modular Content. If you're a heavy user of blocks, you'll notice some really nice UX improvements thanks to **bulk actions**. You can now easily select multiple Modular Content items and perform actions all at once from a brand new action bar.

Each Modular Content row now includes a checkbox for easy selection and you can perform bulk actions such as:

-   Select All / Invert Selection
-   Expand / Collapse selected blocks
    
-   Copy multiple blocks
-   Delete selected items

The contextual submenu also makes managing blocks a bit easier, with an improved flow to:

-   Copy & Paste
-   Duplicate
    
-   Move
-   Delete, and
    
-   Add Blocks
    

You can try the full potential of Modular Content yourself by spinning up a new project using either our [marketing](https://www.datocms.com/marketplace/starters/marketing-website.md) or [eCommerce](https://www.datocms.com/marketplace/starters/ecommerce-website.md) starters! Give them a spin.
