CMS: Changing Your Dynamic Page Dataset Settings
Dynamic page dataset settings in the CMS (Content Management System) allow you to modify and manage the content displayed on your dynamic pages. In the dataset settings, you can change the mode, access collection permissions, set the maximum items that display, and add filters or sorting. Wix EditorStudio Editor
Go to the relevant dynamic page in your editor. Go to the relevant dataset settings:
    
Click CMS  on the left.  Click Manage Page Connections. Click the More Actions icon  next to the dynamic page dataset and select Dataset settings.   
Choose what you want to edit: 
Tip: Click Open next to Connected to collection to go to the collection that connects to the dataset. 
    
Permissions: This determines who can view, add, update, and delete collection content from your live site. Learn more about setting collection permissions.  Dataset name: The name of your dataset as it appears in your editor's Page Connection panels. Dataset ID: (Velo only) The dataset's unique identifier used in your page's code. Dataset mode: The mode determines whether the dataset can read data from your collection, or both read and write data in your collection. Click the drop-down to change the dataset mode:
        
Read: Page elements on your live site can read and display content from your collection. But site visitors cannot edit, add to, or delete any content in your collection. Read & Write: Use this mode to allow visitors to add new content and modify existing content in a collection. With Read & Write mode, visitors can interact with user input elements and a submit button on your live site to edit or add content in a collection. Page elements can also display content from the collection.    Maximum items displayed: This field determines how many items can initially load in connected repeaters and galleries. It also controls how many additional items appear when visitors click  "Load More" buttons, "Next/Previous Page" buttons, or pagination bars. Learn more about setting the 'Maximum items displayed' field. (Velo only) Select the relevant checkboxes under Performance:
        
Fetch after the page loads: The dataset's data is fetched only after the rest of the page has finished loading. This means the initial rendering of the page will not be blocked by this dataset, making the page load faster. We recommend this option when elements displaying the data are not initially visible. For example, if they require scrolling into view or opening a section. Fetch pages using cursors: The dataset will load initial and subsequent data using sequential cursors. This makes data loading faster at the expense of only allowing navigation between next and previous pages of data. Navigating between different pages with a pagination bar or 'Next/Previous page' dataset actions is not available with this option.   Filter: Add filters to your dataset to show or hide certain items from appearing on the page.  Sort: Add sorts to control the order in which items display on your page.

The Write mode is used to only allow the dataset to edit or add collection content.
