Wix Studio: CMS Limits on Free Sites
If you have joined the Wix Studio platform, free sites in your account now have higher CMS (Content Management System) limits before you upgrade. This allows you to continue building complex sites until they reach their free site CMS quotas or until you're ready to upgrade. The CMS limits you have after you upgrade depend on the type of Premium or Studio plan you choose.
Free sites in your Wix Studio account now have a limitation of 10,000 total collection items.
If my account is not in Wix Studio, what are the CMS limits for free sites?
Your free site CMS quota is based on whether or not your Wix account is in the Wix Studio platform.
If your account is in the Wix Studio platform, your free sites have the following CMS quota:
10,000 collection items
If you have not joined the Wix Studio platform, or choose to leave Wix Studio, your free sites have the following CMS quota:
1,000 collection items

Does the increased CMS quota apply to all free Wix Studio sites?
Yes. This is an exclusive benefit for all Wix Studio sites.
Does the increased CMS quota apply only to sites I'm the owner of?
Yes. The increased quota only applies to sites you're the owner of. If you're a site co-owner or have any other site role, the new quotas do not apply.
What if I upgrade to a plan that includes higher CMS limits?
If you upgrade to a Premium or Studio plan that includes higher CMS limits than the new quota for free sites, you automatically move to the quota offered by your new plan. The total collection items you already have on your free sites are included in your new quota.
For example, if you have 10,000 collection items on your free site and you upgrade to a plan that includes 500,000 items, you have 490,000 items left to use.
What if my plan includes lower CMS limits than the new free site quota?
If you upgrade to a plan that includes lower CMS limits than the new free plan quota, you move to the quota offered by your new plan. When you upgrade, none of the existing collection items are deleted, but you are unable to add more if they exceed the new quota.
For example, consider a free site with 10,000 collection items that you upgrade to a plan that includes 4,000 items. In this case, your items exceed the limit in the new plan. In order to add more items, you need to delete existing items until your item count is under 4,000, or upgrade to a plan with more items. We will not delete any items exceeding the limit, but you can't add more until you take action.
Does the 10,000 collection item limit include collections that come from apps?
No. The 10,000 collection item limit specifically applies to collections you create. This means it does not extend to collections created by Wix apps, apps that you downloaded from the App Market, or apps you created in Blocks. This limit offers plenty of room to develop your site, without impacting the available space for your apps, products, and CRM contacts and members. If you need to expand your collections further beyond this limit, consider upgrading to a Premium or Studio plan that accommodates your needs.
What happens to my CMS quota if I leave Wix Studio?
If you choose to leave Wix Studio, your free site CMS quota reverts to 1,000 items. This is also the free site CMS quota if you never joined Wix Studio.
Keep in mind: If you are a Wix Partner, and you choose to leave Wix Studio, you also opt-out of the Partner Program entirely. This means you'll lose access to exclusive benefits, features and progress within the program. Learn more about choosing to leave Wix Studio.
