Question 1

Block reference guide

Accepted Answer

Use this technical reference to see which blocks are available and which fields each one contains

Blocks are reusable page sections. Each block type has its own fields, and each design determines how those fields are displayed on the website. This article is mainly useful for users who create, adapt, or maintain page designs.

|| The fields visible in the CMS may vary depending on the design applied to the block. A design may use only some of the available fields.

Question 2

Welcome to Banana

Accepted Answer

The platform helps professional website creators build, manage, and optimize websites for accommodation businesses.

It is designed for teams that create websites for hotels, resorts, aparthotels, apartment managers, and other hospitality businesses. You can use it to create new sites faster, manage existing websites more efficiently, and give accommodation teams a simpler way to update their own content when needed.

Core concepts

Three terms come up throughout the platform:

Account: Your personal identity in the platform. You use your account to sign in and access the workspaces, sites, and tools available to you.
Workspace: The shared space where your team manages websites. A workspace can include multiple users, permissions, sites, and shared configuration.
Site: One website. Each site contains its own pages, content, languages, settings, integrations, and publishing configuration.

What you can do with the platform

You can create complete websites from an initial brief, structure pages, add content sections, manage reusable designs, configure modules, connect booking engines, work with multiple languages, and publish changes to production.

AI is part of the core workflow. It can help generate first drafts, speed up content creation, support translations, assist with SEO, and reduce repetitive production work.

Question 3

How to create a page

Accepted Answer

Choose where to create the page

New pages are created from the page tree. You can choose where the page should appear depending on the site structure. You can create a new page in three ways:

First-level page: Use the Add page button at the end of the Pages list. This creates a new page in the main page structure.
Subpage: Hover over an existing page that supports subpages and use the Add subpage button. This creates a page inside that parent page.
Landing page: Use the Add landing button in the Landings section. Landing pages do not belong to the main navigation tree.

|| The platform supports up to 5 levels of page depth.

Add the page name and URL slug

For each new page, enter a Page name and a URL slug.

The Page name is the name shown in the menu and in the page tree.
The URL slug is the user-friendly, descriptive part of a web address that comes after the domain name. For example, in https://example.com/rooms, the slug is rooms.

When you enter the page name, the platform automatically generates the URL slug. You can edit the slug manually if you need a different URL.

Page names in multiple languages

By default, the same page name is applied to all site languages. If the site uses multiple languages, you can translate the page name into all site languages using AI. This helps keep menus and page URLs consistent across languages without editing each language manually.

Question 4

Quick start

Accepted Answer

Create your first draft in minutes, improve it in the CMS, and publish when it is ready.

You can create a first website draft without starting from a blank page. The wizard helps you turn basic accommodation information into a working site that you can review, edit, and improve.

1. Start with a first draft

The fastest way to begin is to generate an initial version of the site with AI using the wizard. You provide the basic property information, choose how you want to start, and let the platform create a first structure with pages, designs, real content, and images. The result is a working draft, not a finished website.

|| Think of the first draft as a starting point. It gives you something real to edit, instead of an empty site.

2. Refine the site in the CMS

Once the draft is created, use the CMS to adjust it manually or with AI until it matches the website you have in mind.

Review the page structure and add any pages you need. You can use AI to create page content from a prompt or from a file.
Check whether you need to activate additional modules, such as Activities, News, or Experiences.
Go page by page and adjust the design direction. You can replace full designs with options from the gallery, or modify the current designs manually or with AI.
Review the text across the site. You can edit it manually or ask AI to generate new copy from a prompt or from a file.

3. Check before publishing

Before publishing, make sure the site is ready in ever

Question 5

Sitemap.xml

Accepted Answer

Choose which pages search engines should discover through your sitemaps.

The website uses a sitemap index to organize the individual sitemap files generated for each language. From the page settings panel, you can choose whether each page should be included and configure its Priority and Frequency values.

You can view the sitemap index at: www.yourdomain.com/sitemap_index.xml

The sitemap index contains a separate sitemap for each language available on the website. These language-specific files follow this structure: www.yourdomain.com/language/sitemap_language.xml

For example: www.yourdomain.com/en/sitemap_en.xml

Each language sitemap lists the pages included for that specific language.

A sitemap helps search engines discover URLs, but it does not guarantee that every included page will be crawled or indexed.

|| sitemap.xml helps search engines discover indexable URLs, robots.txt communicates crawler access rules, and llms.txt provides AI assistants with a curated summary and a selection of useful links.

Include or exclude a page

Activate Include in sitemap.xml for public, canonical pages that you want search engines to discover.

You may want to exclude pages that are private, duplicated, redirected, unavailable, temporary, or not intended to be discovered through the sitemap.

Removing a page from the sitemap does not prevent it from appearing in search results. Search engines may still discover it through internal or external links. If a page m

Question 6

Page tree management

Accepted Answer

The page tree is the visual structure of a site inside the CMS.

It shows all the pages that make up the website and how they are organized. You can use the page tree to understand the site structure, open pages, create new pages, manage subpages, reorder content, and access page-level options.

What the page tree shows

The page tree is divided into different areas:

Pages: The main website pages. These are the pages that usually define the public structure of the site, such as Home, Rooms, FAQ, Gallery, or Location.
Landings: Standalone pages that do not belong to the main navigation tree. They are useful for campaigns, booking flows, promotions, or specific conversion paths.
Others: System or legal pages, such as Cookies policy, Privacy policy, Legal notice, or Site Map.

|| The exact pages may change depending on the type of site, the modules enabled, and the structure created for the project.

Parent pages and subpages

Some pages can contain other pages inside them. For example, a Rooms page can include individual room pages such as Superior, Executive, Junior Suite, or Grand Suite. This helps organize related content and creates a clear structure for both the CMS and the website.

What you can do from the page tree

From the page tree, you can manage the structure of the site. Depending on your permissions, you can:
