UPDATING SITE OPTIONS

PLEASE NOTE: This section only applies to web sites that were built using Mexabet Website Builder. If you have an existing web site and are only using the site builder for editing then this information will not apply to you.

After you’ve built your web site using the site builder it’s quick and easy to go back and change your site options, including web site name, page order and layout template. To do this you use the “Site Options” tab. Here’s how:

Using your mouse, click the “Site Options” button on the toolbar in the left frame:

You will see the site options tab. From here you can change the name of your web site, which is displayed on all pages. You can also re-order the way pages appear on the navigation menu of your web site. Finally, you can change the template layout for your web site too.

Changing your web site name: To change the name of your web site simply type a new name in the “Web Site Name” text box and click the OK button.

Changing page order: To change the order in which pages will appear on your navigation menu simply choose a page and click the Up/Down arrow next to the “Page Order” box. Click Up to move the page to the left and Down to move the page to the right. Click OK when you’re done.

Changing the layout template: To change the layout that your web site is using start by choosing a category from the “Layout Category” drop down list. When you choose a category, the list of template images shown below the list will change. Click on an image to use that layout for your web site. You can also preview a layout by clicking the Preview button. Click OK to confirm all changes. The site builder will update your web site layout and menu automatically and will notify you when it’s done:
