Rich Editor
Rich Editor is a multi-function SiteStudio tool that provides a
number of features for editing pages. It is available only in the
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 and higher. It's not available on
Macs (including MS IE), Netscape, Opera, Mozilla and other browsers.
You can access Rich Editor on the majority of SiteStudio pages
with text input boxes on the Edit tab by the Click here

Important: If you copy an image from a browser and publish
it on your site, it will be linked to the original location. If
the website, where you have taken the image, changes its location,
you may face some problems. Therefore, you'd rather save an image

Standard
Settings Tab
Below you can see the descriptions of the Settings tab options.
The set of options may vary from page to page. Settings are located
in the right and the left side of the screen.
Left side options
- Page Title
Page title is the text that will show at the top of the menu bar.
In this field, you can change SiteStudio default name from "Fun
Page" to, say, "Laugh with us".
- Button Text
This is the text that will show up on your site's menu among other
page names. It may be the same as the Page Title, or you can give
it a different name. For example, if your Page Title is "Fun Page",
you may want to add some versatility by typing something like "Smile!".
Note: Some SiteStudio designs have small buttons. Therefore,
when entering the button text, make sure the text will match the
button size.
- File Name
Technically, your site is nothing but an organized inter-linked
group of html pages (files). SiteStudio enables you to assign a
specific name for every page that you add to your site. It is recommended
that your file name only includes letters of Latin alphabet and
numbers. Try to avoid non-Latin characters, spaces, underlines,
commas, dots, hyphens, etc.
Note: We don't recommend that you change the file name,
unless there is paramount neccessity.
- Background Image
You can place the contents of your page on an image. However, try
to be discreet with choosing the background. Avoid using photographs
or bright decorations, as they may hinder text readability.
- Background Sound
This option allows you to add music background to your webpage.
To hear the background music, your visitors need to have a corresponding
plug-in in their browsers.
If you don't hear anything, check for plug-ins in your browser
by choosing Help -> About Plugins. Most of the
browsers have all multimedia plugins in their installation package.
You may need to reinstall a browser to install multimedia modules
with it.
The file will sound when you view the page and after the page is
published. Visitors will hear the sound as long as they stay on
this page.
To add sound, follow this procedure:
- Click the Upload File button.
- Click the Browse button and choose the target file of
the following format: .au .asf .wav .snd .mp3 .mid .midi .rmi
.wm .wma.
- Click Save to get back to the Settings page.
To change file, you first have to remove the existing one. To do
it, click the Remove button.
- Background Colors
SiteStudio allows you to change the color palette for every site's
page. Their default HTML codes are in the boxes next to the parameter
names. You don't need to know these codes. Instead, click the icon
to call a Color Picker—a palette with colors available—and
select the color you like. The "Color" section allows you
to change background, text and links color. Just select the element
you wish to modify and click on the color you like.
Note: If you decide to change background color, ensure that
the text on your page is clearly readable. There must be sufficient
contrast between the text and the background image. A background
with too much contrast competes with the text for reader's attention
and makes it difficult to read.
- Font and Size
The majority of SiteStudio layouts allows to change font and size
settings for Firm name, Slogan and Button.
Firm name and Slogan will show on the top of the
page if you previously entered them in Global
Settings of the Site settings menu. Button text
will show the names of the webpages your site contains.
To change font and size, select it from the drop-down boxes. You
will see the appearance of the changed font on the image to the
right.
- Rollover Effect
Some SiteStudio pages allow to add a rollover effect to
the website elements. When you hover the mouse over the buttons
on the website, they will change their color, shape, size and other
properties. Rollover effect is available only in about 3 SiteStudio
designs.
To set a rollover effect, choose it from the drop-down box on
the Settings tab and click Next to view the changes.
- "Powered by" Logo
This option allows to replace our default logo that shows on webpages
with your own company logo. To add/change logo:
- Set logo image by clicking the Select Image button. Follow
the standard Uploading images
procedure.
- Enter Logo URL. Remember that logo won't show without
URL!
- Enter Copyright text. It can be any plain text.
Optionally, you can leave the "Powered by SiteStudio" logo that
comes by default.
- Make this page invisible
This SiteStudio option allows to avoid linking pages to site navigation
menu.
Visitors won't be able to see such pages from the website menu
and from the Site Map webpage. Such pages will be available from
the top SiteStudio panel -> Site Map option
where invisible page will show in light-grey color and with a little
"eye" icon.
However, you can link invisible pages from the text paragraphs
on your page by using, say, the Insert Link otion in the
Rich Editor.
To make page invisible from the menu:
- Click the Settings tab.
- Scroll down to the bottom of the page and check off Make
this page invisible box.
- Make sure to click Next to proceed.
- Disable text navigation
Checking this box will hide text links to webpages at the bottom
of this page.
- Banner
A couple of designs in SiteStudio allow adding banners on user
sites: Stylish Oval (for both website categories) and Strong (for
Small Business category ). In this case simply enter the HTML banner
code into the Add your banner code input box on the Settings
tab.
In other designs, users can add banners only as images with hyperlinks
by entering the banner code in any of the Paragraph boxes
under the Edit tab.
Disable banner on this page: Check this box if you want
to avoid adding banners to this page. This option is available only
for Stylish Oval and Strong layouts.
- Secure
You can make your page open to general public or closed (secure).
Secure sites or pages are often used by multinational companies

where sending e-mails is not appropriate.
To secure strict access to the page, choose Yes. The frame
will expand to include a drop-down list box where you can choose
who is allowed to view the page: none/all users/some users/some
groups/some IPs and domains.
- Choosing none will disallow access to this page for all
users. Think well before choosing it, as this page will be accessible
