Omnichannel Experience Preview & WYSIWYG Editing

Edit faster, preview smarter: what you see is exactly what your customers get. 

CoreMedia’s Omnichannel Experience Preview and WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor capabilities transform how teams create, edit and publish digital experiences within leading content management systems.

No more tab-switching or second-guessing how content will look once it’s live. With In-Preview Editing inside CoreMedia’s headless CMS, every edit happens exactly where it appears, giving editors real-time control of their content.

It empowers your content team to collaborate visually, make faster decisions and keep brand consistency across every channel. It’s visual, intuitive and built for modern content management, where creativity and efficiency go hand in hand.

Content Editing
In-Context Preview

Unifying content creation and preview in a headless CMS

Most teams still rely on complex editing forms and separate preview tabs to manage content — a process that slows down delivery and creates friction between creation and execution. 
When editors can’t see their work in context, it’s easy for details to slip through the cracks, especially when managing experiences across multiple channels, layouts, and languages. 

CoreMedia’s In-Preview Editing Extension eliminates this disconnect. It lets you edit, preview and publish directly within the same view and unifies editorial, design and publishing into a single workflow that integrates easily with your existing website.

A better way to edit: in context, in real time

Seamless in-context editing 

Make changes where they matter most: directly in the page preview. Whether it’s updating text, swapping an image or reordering content blocks, every edit is reflected instantly in the live preview.
With drag and drop capabilities, editors can move, insert or resize components with no need for coding knowledge. You can simply drag elements into place and instantly see the result in real time.

True WYSIWYG experience with drag and drop precision

See your content exactly as your audience will. The editor’s real-time rendering ensures perfect accuracy across devices and channels. The intuitive and drag and drop interface makes content creation smoother than ever.

Dynamic Content

Rich editing made simple with a powerful page builder

From inline edits to full rich text editing, CoreMedia provides the tools to format, link, style and structure content without touching code. Undo/redo functionality, minimal lag and drag and drop media insertion make it accessible for every user, from casual editors to expert creators.

Use the built-in page builder to create content visually and manage layouts in half the time. It’s structured and designed for maximum flexibility, allowing teams to produce high-quality experiences with just a few clicks.

Smarter publishing and content management

For users with publishing permissions, one-click publishing from the preview streamlines go-live workflows. No switching interfaces, no waiting. With drag and drop content blocks and reusable templates, publishing is faster and more efficient.

Built for precision and performance

Behind its simplicity lies a sophisticated technical design: 

  • Precision DOM mapping ensures every editable field connects exactly to the right content object 
  • Non-intrusive UI overlays keep the interface clean while preserving the authenticity of the preview 
  • Context and permission awareness means users only see the tools and actions relevant to their role and current task 
  • Optimized for speed, with real-time updates and minimal latency, even for complex layouts and embedded assets  

CoreMedia’s headless CMS architecture allows it to integrate seamlessly with your digital ecosystem, supporting page builder extensions, drag and drop workflows and cross-channel consistency optimized for search engines and modern frameworks.
