  • What Site Builder does

    Site Builder lets you build and change your site's pages in the browser, without editing templates:

    • add new pages, and change or delete existing ones
    • lay out each page in rows and columns
    • fill the page with widgets: text, lists of items, players, images, a login box, and more
    • edit the site's main menu

    It comes with Jamroom. Only master admins can use it.

    Site Builder works on site pages: the pages that don't belong to a profile, such as your home page or a "Music" page. Profile pages are laid out by the skin.

  • The parts of a page

    Part What it is
    Page A page at its own address, such as yoursite.com/music
    Row A horizontal band across the page, with 1 to 3 columns
    Container One column of a row. It holds widgets, either stacked or as tabs.
    Widget A piece of content inside a container: text, a list, a player and so on. The widgets you can use depend on the modules you have.

  • Where to start

    1. Starting a Site Builder Session
    2. Creating a New Page
    3. Modifying the Page Layout
    4. Adding a New Widget
    5. Menu Editor

    The settings and tools of the Site Builder module itself are on the Site Builder module page.
