To keep from cluttering the forum, I am going to ask all of my questions in this thread. Hope that is OK.

The biggest question at this point (I am keeping the design elements simple) is how to create and link to additional pages in the website. In VSD it was a snap. I did a search here for linking to pages, and this document turned it up:

https://www.coffeecup.com/help/articles … -designer/

The author went on and on about how simple and easy it was. I couldn't follow. Can anyone give me simple and straightforward directions for creating new pages, and links to those pages? Or better yet, is there a video you can direct me to? I follow videos pretty well. :)

Thanks!

To create a new page open the "Structure Data" tab on the top menu
slide on over to the Manage Page tab bottom left is a blue button which creates a new page,(or the button next to it creates a duplicate page the page will be given a name Blank
slide on back up to where the page name Blank is displayed, highlight it and put whatever name you want your page to be



You reference the "Href" on whatever links you have that you want to point to a page

select the link
move over to the "Element" tab
slide down to the"href" section,
in the empty box to the right you enter (pagename.html) WITHOUT THE BRACKETS

Give it a title (something to describe to the users what is going to happen
target=blank etc

Boom there is your link to the other page

Repeat as necessary

I can do a video if you get stuck


THANK YOU! That first paragraph clarified everything.

Jeff, I didn't realize you were on Windows. Tintca is an App for Apple computers. If you are coping the text with the background from Site Designer you are probably also copying the background colour with it. There should be a text editing program that just copies the text that you can use. I haven't used Windows for 15 years now so I might not be of any help.

Good luck!
