Where to Find

This area can be found in the "My Website" section of the Toolbar as Manage Pages.


Managing Pages

  • Clicking on a page name will allow you to edit the page settings you used when the page was created in the Creating a New Page area. You can unpublish a page in this area.

Note: Page settings can also be managed using the Status Bar.

  • Clicking the Viewicon.PNG icon will take you directly to the associated page.
  • Clicking on "Make default" will set the selected page as the page that is loaded by default when you edit your pages and will be the first page seen when someone visits your website. Your default page cannot be deleted and this option will not be available unless another default page is chosen.
  • Clicking the Deletepageicon.PNG icon will allow you to delete the page. You will be prompted to confirm deletion first, which will prevent accidentally deleted pages.

Note: Pages can also be deleted using the Status Bar.


Managing Folders

Folders are useful for grouping similar pages together to be managed as a group to avoid complication and confusion where there are many pages. It can also be used to password protect only the pages in a folder and leave all others open to the public.


To create a new folder, simply click "New Page". You will be able to create a new page here and all all of the details that can be later managed in the Page Settings area.

The screenshot above shows the settings that are needed to create the Contact page in the /about/ folder as shown in the screenshot at the top of the page. Note the about/ in the Page Location field.


Clicking the Deletegroup.PNG icon will bring up a confirmation box allowing you to confirm your choice before the folder is deleted.

Note: This will also remove the pages inside this folder.


Locking/Unlocking

If you'd like to password protect a page or group, click on the Lockicon.PNG icon to the right of the page name or group name. You will then be able to set a password for that page or group.

To unlock a protected page or group, or to change the password associated with it, simply click on the Lockedicon.PNG icon.

Please note that the desired actions will be applied automatically and closing this box when finished will confirm this.
