Felting projects share strict structured fields

Every felting project shares the same skeleton: technique (needle felting, wet felting, nuno), wool type and weight, tools required (felting needles, foam mat, bubble wrap), finished size, and a difficulty rating. The differences between a small needle-felted animal and a wet-felted scarf are values in known fields. Building each one as a freeform WordPress post means retyping the same labels, drifting between 'merino' and 'Merino wool', and burying tools inside introductory prose.

SleekRank reads one project sheet and renders one URL per row from a single base WordPress page. Technique slots into a tag mapping, tools render as proper list items via a list mapping, and wool type stays a real column instead of a free-text label. The base template handles typography and image cropping once. New projects are rows, not posts.

The catalog stays predictable for fiber artists scanning for a wet-felted scarf with merino top they can finish over a weekend. Editors correct a wool weight once, flush the SleekRank cache, and every page that references it rebuilds on the next request. The sitemap stays current and retired projects drop out cleanly.

Workflow

From project sheet to live felting catalog

1

Structure the sheet

One row per project with columns for slug, name, technique, wool type, finished size, difficulty, and a tools array stored as JSON or pipe-separated values. Keep the slug column kebab-case and unique across the catalog.

2

Build the base page

Create a single WordPress page with the project layout. Mark target elements with stable IDs like #project-technique, #project-wool, and an empty

for the list mapping to repeat each tool into.

3

Configure mappings

Point the page group at the sheet, set tag mappings for technique and difficulty, a list mapping for tools, and a meta mapping for the per-project description used in search and social previews.

4

Flush and verify

Clear the SleekRank cache and visit a handful of projects directly. Confirm the sitemap lists each generated URL, the base template is noindexed, and removed rows return a real 404 with no leftover index entry.

Data in, pages out

Comparison

Per-project posts versus a single felting sheet

Manual posts per project

Wool weights buried in inconsistent intro paragraphs across the archive
Tool lists formatted differently between older and newer posts
No structured technique or finished-size fields for filtering
Bulk corrections to a wool supplier touch dozens of posts manually
Tools wrapped in prose instead of clean list markup readers can scan
New projects mean clone-an-old-post drudgery every studio cycle

SleekRank

One URL per felting project from a single base page
Technique, wool type, and difficulty in fixed slots
Tool list renders as proper list items per item
Finished size and wool weight become real columns
Sheet edits flow to every page on cache flush
Sitemap auto-includes every project page on publish

Features

What SleekRank gives you for felting project pages

Per-project URLs

Each felting row becomes its own URL like /felting/needle-felted-fox/, generated from one base page. Every project presents technique, wool, and tools in the same fixed order.

Tools as a list

Map the tools array to a list selector so each item (38 gauge felting needle, foam mat, finger guards, wire armature) renders as a proper list item with consistent spacing across every project.

Technique as a real tag

Keep technique as a column (needle felting, wet felting, nuno) and map it to a tag mapping. Filtered listings by technique become possible because the value lives outside prose.

Use cases

Where felting designers use SleekRank

Felting tutorial blogs

Run a felting tutorial blog where each project is generated from a curated sheet. Readers get consistent tool lists and the maker adds rows instead of wrestling with the editor for every new piece.

Fiber supply brand sites

Publish a wool brand's project library that uses their specific roving and batts. Every page reinforces the product catalog and links each fiber line directly to the shop without manual updates.

Craft magazine archives

Generate a back-catalog of felting projects from print issues, with one URL per project from the archive sheet. Editors fix a wool weight once and the correction lands across every affected page.

The bigger picture

Why felting catalogs deserve real structure

A felting tutorial site ranks on long-tail intent: someone searches for a needle-felted fox they can finish with core wool and a 38 gauge needle over a weekend. The page that loads needs technique, wool type, and tool list visible in the first fold. Buried prose and inconsistent formatting cost trust before they cost rankings.

Felters compare wool weights and tool counts across multiple tabs, and a catalog that formats those fields differently on every page makes that comparison impossible. The structure is also commercial: when a fiber supplier discontinues a roving line or a designer revises a wool weight, that fix needs to land on every affected page within minutes, not after a weekend of editor work. SleekRank treats the project as data and the layout as a template, which matches how designers already think about their catalog.

The pages stay predictable for makers, the data stays clean for the editor, and the sitemap stays current as new projects ship from the studio sheet.

Questions

Common questions about SleekRank for felting project pages

No. SleekRank does not generate instructions or any project text. You provide the data, written by the designer or imported from an existing catalog, and SleekRank renders one indexable WordPress page per row using your base template. The actual step-by-step instructions live in your sheet, JSON, or linked PDF.

Yes. Add a PDF URL column to the sheet and map it into a download button via a selector or tag mapping. The button appears on every project page automatically once the column is populated. Projects without a PDF can hide the button via a small template conditional.

Add structured columns for wool type, weight, and finished size, plus a JSON array for tools. Map the array into a list selector and the scalar fields into tag mappings. Every project then presents wool and tools in the same order, which is what felters expect when sourcing supplies.

Yes. Map a meta og:image column per row using a meta mapping, or pair SleekRank with SleekPixel to generate dynamic OG images keyed by project slug. SleekPixel can render a card with the project name, technique, and a sample photo without designing each card by hand.

Edit the row in the source sheet, clear the SleekRank cache, and the next request rebuilds that project's page using the new data. The cache duration in the page-group config controls how often the sheet is re-read. For urgent fixes, flush manually from the SleekRank settings.

Yes. Every generated URL is a real WordPress page registered with the sitemap. The base template is automatically noindexed so search engines crawl only the per-project URLs. An internal /felting/ index page helps each project get discovered during crawl.

Yes, but it is a separate task. Build WordPress listing pages, manually or via another page group keyed by technique or wool type, that filter on the column. SleekRank itself renders detail pages, not faceted indexes, so the filtering logic lives in your theme.

Remove the row from the sheet and flush the cache. The next request returns a real 404 for that slug and the sitemap stops listing it. For a soft retirement, add a status column and filter the page group on it so retired rows render but stay flagged in the template.
