To create a new static page for the website, for the admin to add its own personal content, follow the steps below:


In the Admin area go to: 

  • My Content  
  • Web Page Builder 
  • Click on" New Web Page+":


 


When adding the content to this page, make sure to also set the permalink (The URL name option. eg: family,meet-the-team, franchise, etc.) apart from any other content.


The most common areas used in this section of the admin are described in the images and points below:

 


1. Permalink 

Add a unique value with no spaces or special characters. It is important not to use the same URL structure used by the membership features as this will be a conflict in the system. Once the page has been saved click on the "View Page" button to visit it.


2. H1 

The primary title for the webpage. The size of the H1 is controlled in Design Settings in the "Search Results Design" tab.


3. H2 

Subtitle for the webpage. This is also controlled in Design Settings in the "Search Results Design" tab.


4. Page Content  

Use the Froala Editor and its different available options to add content to the page.  


5. Hero Section 

On this tab, enable and set the Hero Section. For more information click on this article How to add a Hero Section on Static Pages

7. Advanced:

These are the advanced settings used to edit further the webpage:


Customize Page Level CSS Style 

Add custom CSS to this specific page.

Customize the Page Level HEAD Tags 

Add custom HEAD tags to work only on this page.

Customize Page Level Footer Javascript 

Add a custom footer code that will only work on this page.



8. Save Web Page 

When the work on the page has been completed, click on "Save Web Page"


To make the new web page visible to others either add it to the main menu or add a link to an existing page that points to the new page that has been created.





9. Load Previous Versions 


Each time a static page is saved, a backup version is stored automatically. Brilliant Directories saves up to 10 previous versions of each page.


To retrieve a previous version:


1. Click on Select Revisions 


2. A dropdown menu will appear showing all saved versions, labeled with the date and time they were saved. This will also show the email of the admin that saved this version.



3. Select the version to be reviewed.


4. Click Load Version to replace the current content with that version.




Note: Once a previous version is loaded, an additional option appears, allowing the user to return to the most recent version of the page if needed.  Click on "Back to Current" to revert to the current or most recent version if needed.
