Can Webflow be used as a CMS for two different websites and can it automatically update both websites if changes are made using a CSV file?

Yes, Webflow can be used as a CMS for multiple websites, and it does have the ability to automatically update both websites if changes are made using a CSV file. Here's how you can achieve this:

1. Create your websites: First, you'll need to create both websites in Webflow. Each website will have its own unique Webflow project.

2. Design and structure the websites: Build the design, layout, and structure of both websites using Webflow's visual editor. You can create custom templates, reusable components, and dynamic collections for your content.

3. Set up the CMS: In each Webflow project, you can enable the CMS functionality. This allows you to create and manage content for each website separately.

4. Import the CSV file: Webflow provides an import feature that allows you to import content from a CSV file. To update your websites automatically, you'll need to format your CSV file with the relevant fields and data for each website.

5. Map CSV fields: Once you import the CSV file, you will need to map the CSV fields to the respective fields in your Webflow CMS. This ensures that the data gets placed in the right locations on both websites.

6. Set up collection filtering: If you have content specific to each website within the same collection, you can use collection filtering to display the relevant data on each website. For example, you can filter based on a specific field that identifies which website the content belongs to.

7. Automated updates: Whenever you make changes to the CSV file and import it again, Webflow will automatically update the respective collections and content on both websites. Any changes made to the CMS content in the Webflow Designer will also reflect on both websites.

It's important to note that while Webflow does provide automated updates through CSV imports, it doesn't offer real-time synchronization. You'll need to manually trigger the CSV import to update the websites. Additionally, ensure that the CSV file is properly formatted and matches the field structure in your Webflow CMS to avoid any import errors.

By using this approach, you can efficiently manage and update multiple websites using Webflow as a CMS while automating the process with a CSV file.
