webflow hosting: accessing cms items on basic and starter plans

The community member has a question about Webflow hosting. They note that the Webflow pricing page states they have access to 50 free CMS items on all plans, but they are blocked from creating even one CMS Collection on a Basic or Starter site. The community member wonders if they are missing a different way to create and use CMS items.

In the comments, another community member explains that the Basic site plan of Webflow does not allow CMS functionality.
