Display a guestbook on your site which your visitors can use to leave you a message or log their visit.
Where to Find
This Component can be found in the "Add Block to Page" section of the Toolbar.
Adding to Website
After selecting this Component, you will be able to choose exactly where you want to add it!
You will see all available content locations it can be added to - on the current page only (content locations in Gold), on every page (content locations in Red), or on every page under the current page directory (content locations in Blue. For example - if you are editing a page called "About", the blue content locations would allow you to add this component to all pages under the /about/ directory).
Options
The main editing area will allow you to customize the way your guestbook appears on your site - from text size and font, to color and anything else you would want to include to create the perfect guestbook for your site. The visual editor will give you full control over these features, with the ability to manage HTML if required.
Note: The grey pane on the right side shows a representation of the width you have to work with - it will vary in size depending on the column width of the area you're adding this component to.
Once finished, just save your changes! To manage guestbook comments, click on the "Messages" icon in the content location toolbar.
You can review your messages here, and delete/approve/mark as spam as needed.
Finally, you can manage all Guestbook settings via the "Settings" tab.
Messages can be enabled or disabled here, as well as enabled for a set time period.
You can choose to publish New Messages immediately, or hold them pending your review.
Your Spam Filter can also be configured to delete immediately, or hold spam for 30 days. You can optionally disable the filter.
Require captcha verification allows you use an anti-spam method which requires a user to complete a simple task to identify themselves as human.
