D.Y.O. Web
The new and easy way to create and maintain your own professional dynamic
website
D.Y.O. WebThis short presentation shows how easy it is to setup a
new professional website in 8 simple steps.
You do not need to know anything about website programming. As long as you have a basic knowledge of
data input you are ready to go!
The first time you access your new D.Y.O. Website you need to log-in with username and password provided to you when you signed up.
We recommend that you have pictures you want to use for your website ready for upload to the server and it is also a good idea to have text that you want to add to your web site prepared prior to
starting the setup process.
Step 1
After successful login select if you want a website with a top menu bar or just side
menus.
D.Y.O. Web is flexible! Whatever choice you make
during the initial system setup can be easily changed
later.
Step 2
On the next screen enter all the basic data for your
new web site.
Add a logo to your site, put a company name on
top and select some basic options such as multi
language buttons, guest book feature or logion button on your home
page.
Finally enter your contact details and save
everything.
Step 3
Now review and update the generated menu items.
This screen also provides data entry to add
additional menus to your website. At this stage you only define the structure – actual data is entered at a
later stage.
Save your settings and you will be taken to the next
step.
Step 4
If you want to add drop-down (sub)
menus to your menu bars, this is the time
to do it.
If you only want main menus click on
“done”, otherwise click on the menu bar
button you want to add drop-down
menus to.
Step 4 cont.
If you selected to add drop-down(sub) menus you can add
them for each of your defined side
menus.
Keep spaces between the entries in case you want to insert additional sub
menus later.
Main menus that do receive sub menu entries turn into
header menus and can’t have data by
themselves.
Step 4 cont.
After saving the sub menus you are back at the previous screen.
Note the “+” sign on the menu bar next to
“menu1”. This indicates a header
menu with underlying drop-down menus,
visible after clicking on the menu bar.
Click on “done” to continue.
Step 5
Next select the layout for your
home page.
You can select from 10 different
pre-defined dynamic layouts. They vary from
simple image/text pages to automatic
slide shows and image selections to
dynamic product listing pages.
Select the layout you want by
clicking on the image.
Step 6
Now pick the color theme you want from the selection of 15 themes on this
page.
Tick the box above the
images if you want your side menus on the
right side.
Click on the image to select the theme of your choice.
Step 7
Ok, your website layout is finalized
and the appearance changed according
to your previous selections.
Now add a headline and banner to scroll
across the top of your home page if you want or leave
the text entries blank – you can
always add it later.
Save the settings to continue.
Step 8
The last step – data entry.
Based on your layout selection you will only see relevant fields to enter data for your
home page.
The red shaded portions of the thumbnails next to each data input area show which part of your home page gets this input.
Select the pictures by clicking on the “Browse” button. All selected images will be automatically uploaded to the server when
you save the settings.
Text can be directly entered or you can paste it into the text area. Text can be formatted through the built-in editor
Click on “save settings” to store your input.
All done!
Your website is finished and the home page data entry complete.
All that is left now is to enter data for all
the other menus you added to your site and for additional
languages if required.
Click on “finish” and you get re-directed to your new home page.
And here it is.
Pictures and text you entered in
the previous step are displayed on your home page.
You are still logged-in with administrator rights and can
continue to enter data for all other
menus now or click on logout
and get back to it later.
Data entry for other menus:
Login with administrator
rights and click on a menu page. The first time you see an empty page.
Click on the “Update Page” button to start
data entry.
You have the option to use the
same layout generator tools as
before or go to manual page
update.
If you choose manual update this is the entry mask you will see.
All data entry fields are available and the combination of data
entered into the fields determines the page layout.
Data entry for pictures through this mask does not include automatic
upload.
Please refer to the Administrator Manual for details.
We recommend to use this data input method only after you
familiarized yourself with all details of your new D.Y.O. Website.
