How to Manage Websites in Website Builder
Website Builder is a platform that lets you create a site, with no coding involved. It's template-based and customisable to match your brand's design and "identity".
The Sites section of your Website Builder Dashboard shows all of your current projects and published websites, making it easy for you to view and manage what you're currently working on.
To access the Sites page of your Website Builder Dashboard, follow the instructions below:
- Click Sign Up / Log In at the top of this page.
- Select Account Manager from the drop-down menu.
- Enter your username and password then, click Log In.
- Click the Visit My Account button.
- Click Website Builder from the menu at the top of the page.
- Click on the Website Builder plan that you wish to manage.
If you only have one Website Builder plan, you will automatically be redirected to its management page. - Hover your mouse pointer over the [+] Icon at the top-right section of the page and click Build Now.
You will now be routed to the Sites page of your Website Builder Dashboard.
Available Actions on the Sites Page
From your Sites page, you will be able to view your current projects, create new ones, sort them, and even restore them if deleted within the last 5 days. Below are quick instructions on how you can do so:
| Create a Site | If you haven't started a project yet, you can click the Create Site button to select a template and proceed with customising it using the Website Builder Editor. Note: While the Website Builder platform allows you to work on a maximum of 3 templates at the same time, you can only publish 1 website live and connect it to your own domain name. |
| Sort Projects | You can also sort your projects from the Sites page: click on the My Sites link at the top-left corner of the page, then select Recent, Published, or Name A-Z to sort it accordingly. |
| Restore Projects | If you've accidentally deleted a project or website, it stays in the system for 5 days. You can easily restore it by clicking on My Sites and selecting Deleted. A list of all your deleted projects will appear. Hover your mouse pointer over the project that you wish to restore, then click the Restore button. IMPORTANT: After 5 days, the deleted project or website will be purged from the server and will no longer be restorable. |
