Advanced Webmaster
Tools
Advanced Sitebuilder
Tools - Our sitebuilder offer many advanced tools. While
the system is designed for the average user to mange a website
easily, they need high end designs and experts to take their
websites to professional levels. For this reason we have created
many advanced webmaster tools to allow experts to modify the
templates HTML and CSS for most of the features and programs.
Programs from the shopping
carts to the used car dealer management tools allow custom layouts which use replacement strings
that will be replaced with the page data or data fields when
viewed.
This lets anyone build a page
look or style without doing any programming. Just create the html
and insert the replacement values for the areas you whish them to
appear. This allows for 100% unique designs on pages, programs,
menus and so on.
Most of the tools can be
accessed from the main management pages or the program
configuration pages. This help page outlines some of the tools
and the processes for using them.
We also have the WYSIWYG PRO
Editor which supports CSS, allows you to create divisions and set
properties, insert video and multi media files easily and most of
the features that professional webmasters expect from an editor.
Building Custom Templates - Webmasters can create complete templates that can
be uploaded and used as the main template for the website. There
are no limits to the custom templates other than the webmaster
integrating replacement strings for values that they want the
user to be able to chnage using the site builder. A well built
template will incorporate all the tools and poorly built
templates will bypass the sitebuilder altogether and just be
static unchangable designs.
Editing Dynamic Menu - The menu file can be a static file, a web page or
a dynamically parsed file that allows the users to add, remove
and rename pages that automatically appaer in the websites
navigation menu. You can build CSS menus, dropdown multi level
menus using the tools we have in place. The tools allow even a
novice to build these files and manage them, but the real
webmasters want to get into the html and css and we also provide
full access to the html and css built using the tools for further
editing by hand.
Editing Shopping Cart
Layouts - See the individual shopping cart configuration
pages.
Image Mapping
- The sitebuilder features an image mapping tool that allows you
to add links to any image using shape coordinates, alt and
targets with no limit t the number of links on an image. The tool
can be accessed from the image management pages and under the
titlespace tools for mapping the webiste's main title image.
Composite Image Builder - One of the amazing image management and editing
tools allows a drop and drag of image layers for watermarking,
adding text or logos over images. Create multiple layers and
arrange them using your mouse. Then save the image right on the
website for instant editing.
Custom Includes
- Create text files that can be added to pages in real time. This
allows the addition of outside cosed such as google ads and
javascript pulling resources from outside websites. These files
can be used on multiple pages allowing a central editing point
for all the pages using the file.
Standard Tools For
Webmasters
It is hard to say which tools
are advanced and which are standard since everyone's skillset is
unique. Many of the tools we have in place will be too much for
our average user to grasp. The truth is, every tool is a great
tool for any webmaster of developer. So much so that 90% of our
own websites are built using the online site builder. It just
makes more sense to have all the tools offered at your fingertips
rather than trying to build any type of CMS into a website.
Tools like image resizers are
not going to impress any experienced webmaster sich they know
very well how to resize, edit and optimize images. But it takes
time to save a file, open in photoshop, edit and save then open
an ftp utility, find the directory and name of the image on the
website and upload the new image in binary format.
Where as with the site builder
you can click on an image in the gallery, set the size and you
are done.
The time savings of these
tools for the experienced webmaster are just amazing. Anyone that
spends long hours building or managing websites will welcome the
speed at which edits can be made once a webmaster becomes
familiar with the online tools.
