Admin/Site

Site

Your public website: adding and arranging its pages, what the menu and footer say, and how the whole thing looks.

Start a new site from a ready-made look

For a ministry whose website has not been built yet.

Add a page and put it on the site

Making a new page, saving your work, and letting visitors see it.

Undo a change, or go back to an older version

When a page has gone wrong and you want it back the way it was.

The page menu: base, schedule, open on the site, delete

The button at the end of the page frame, and each thing behind it.

Change a page's web address

Moving a page to a new address, and what happens to the links that used the old one.

How a page reads in search results and when shared

The description a search engine shows, and the picture a shared link carries.

The Shared Sections screen

Every section used on more than one page: where it is, and where it goes live.

Put a page in the menu

The bar across the top of your site: what is in it, in what order, and what each item says.

The announcement strip, the cookie notice and the search box

The three other parts of the header, down the right of the HEADER screen.

Change your colours, typefaces and spacing

One place that changes every page at once: Settings > Branding.

Your logo, address, phone, email and social accounts

The details the footer, the emails and the checkout all read: Settings > Info.

Give your newsletter its name

What the site's newsletter page and your campaigns call it.

Who marketing emails go to: unengaged contacts and abandoned carts

Two rules the campaign engine reads, in Settings.

Edit the footer

The bottom of every page: the name, the columns of links, the sign-up box and the bottom bar.

The bar fixed to the bottom of every page

A message and one or two buttons that stay in view as a visitor scrolls.

Upload, rename, move and delete your files

Every picture and document your site uses, in one place.

Testimonials

The quotes the site draws in its quote carousels and on the pages that show them.

The people on your Team page

Each person's name, title, photo and biography, and the order they appear in.

Write and send an issue of the newsletter

Design it once in its campaign, then put it on the website, email it, or both.

How big to make each picture

The size, in pixels, for every kind of picture you upload - and why a header gets its top and bottom cut off.

See every automatic email, and change the ones you can

What the platform sends in your name without anybody pressing anything - and when.

Change the letterhead your automatic emails are sent on

The logo, the sign-off, the social links and the colours that go around every one.

How a page is built: sections, columns and elements

The three panes of the page designer, and the words this help uses for the parts of a page.

The checklist at the top of a page

What the designer tells you a page is missing, and which part of it clears itself.

Sections: the bands a page is made of

The seven kinds of section on the Build your own shelf, and which one to reach for.

The page header

The band a page opens with, why it stays first, and how to change it.

Lists, and every look a List can wear

One item shape repeated - cards, rows, a timeline, a carousel - and the eleven looks.

A list that draws itself from your records

Events, books, the team and the newsletter on a page, always current, with nothing to retype.

Tabs: a strip of tabs, each with its own contents

One band, several tabs; each tab holds elements, or whole sections of its own.

Fold-open panels

A stack of headers that fold open, each holding its own elements.

Carousel: one slide at a time

Slides that move by arrows and on a timer, each holding whatever you put in it.

Media band: elements over a picture or a video

A full-width band on a photo or a moving video, with your words and buttons over it.

Elements: what goes in a column, and how to edit one

Adding an element from the rail, editing it in the pop-up, and "Shown as".

The Text shelf: words, quotes, tables and callouts

One Text element set six ways, a pull quote, a table and a notice in a box.

The Media shelf: pictures, video, photo grids, maps, icons and logos

Every element that is a picture of something, and the two looks the Picture grid and the Icon can take.

The Actions & links shelf: buttons, links, forms and sharing

Everything a visitor presses - buttons, a pop-up, links, an On-this-page list, breadcrumbs, forms, sign-up, social and share.

The Numbers shelf: figures, countdowns and price cards

A number that counts up, stars, a bar towards a goal, a clock to a date, and a plan with its price.

The "From elsewhere in the admin" shelf

A product, a team member, your contact details, the reader map, the latest episodes and the sign-up band - content the page points at rather than types.

The Spacing shelf: lines and room

A line across the column, the short brand line, or just space.

Saving, publishing, and going back

Save, Publish, Discard, History, and scheduling a page to go live by itself.

Shared sections and ready-made sections

One section on many pages, edited once; and sections saved to start from again.

Copying, moving and deleting sections

Duplicate a section, send it to another page, reorder it, or take it off the page.
