This demo will work using the Internet Explorer, Firefox or Opera browsers.
Basic steps to try this demo:
- Simply click on the "AE" icon in the footer [
] OR press the enter key 3 times.
- Enter "demo" in both the user and password form fields.
a. Click the 'Select' folder and then the file "demo.php".
NOTE that for this demo you will only be allowed to edit that specific file.
b. The CMS system for this site has excluded the user "demo" (you) from opening any other file(s). If you try to edit a different file, the system will lead you to what you are allowed to edit.
c. So, behave, open "demo.php" and play with this CMS program.
- The green outlined areas are where you may make changes (add/edit/delete).
It won't be too long before you realize the features are very much like what you find in a Word document processor. You will see the editor toolbar appear at the top.
- Hovering the mouse over a toolbar button will display a title showing what the button is for.
You will also find that many of the functions have step-by-step wizards to guide you through that process.
We encourage you to click the edit toolbar help icon (
) and review the descriptions for all the buttons.
- Normally, clicking the Save icon (
not present in this demo) would make your changes permanent and the page would then be 'live' on the internet. ***
Important Notes:
In order to keep this template from 'breaking' (edit areas losing alignment making the page look goofy or screwed up) the width of inserted images must not be larger than 150 pixels for the left column nor larger than 450 pixels for this column.
Even though you can't upload your own pics for this demo, some images are provided for you to insert into this demo page. Click the image icon (
) , pause editing (
), and your inserted images will be displayed for this editing session (in your browser only) so that you will be able to see your work. Linking to a larger image in a separate pop-up window or page location will work fine, as well.
This same operating restriction applies to any links you entered, i.e. they will work for this session in your browser only.
The above image width limits apply to inserted tables' widths, as well. And, again, the changes you make in this demo only work for this session.
You can use the empty blocks below or even make changes to this one that will work for this visit.
So, let us host and enable your web pages. Be sure to contact us if you would like to have us set your site up.
Enjoy and have fun. ...........Ron
*** For this demo, the changes are not permanently saved. And the ability to upload your own images has been disabled. Our clients' setups allow these features as well as managing who can change which of the site pages and can even control who can edit specific blocks within a page.
Try making another button like the one above. Click the button-maker icon (
) in the CMS demo toolbar and follow the 'bouncing ball'. It's an easy way to add a navigation button to the page. The button above was inserted using this Area Editor CMS system. We used the "a-button.gif" image already on this site. With the Area Editor installed on your site you'll be able to upload a button image of your choice...a great way to customized your nav bar or links.
