Re: Creating your own templates with shapes

Not sure if anyone can help me. i am new at this but am not too bad with computer stuff. i have been gently working my way through your tutorials which are very good and simply explained in bite sized pieces.

However one problem the tutorial for creating your own templates does not run on my computer. - all the others are fine. is there a reason for this or is there something i can read.

I am pretty sure I am OK with doing this myuself but just want to make sure before I start doing each individual page.

Thanks for the help - i hope

Re: Creating your own templates with shapes

without the tutorial, the best way is to experiment with the shapes tool. On the top nav bar of blue voda, if you mouse over the icons, you will find the shapes icon. ss the tut is not there, i am sure this is only temporary due to upgrade of blue voda.

Re: Creating your own templates with shapes

Using the same exact shape (copying from one page to another or merely changing the page name) which has the same name in two (or more) templates can cause a problem if you change the color but do not change the name.
In my experieince all templates will change colors to match the last changes made.

Hi, it might be the bar wants stretching. pop your pointer over the 4 dots at the end of a menu bar, left click/hold & enlarge/stretch.

Re: Creating your own templates with shapes

I cannot find the icon to add a navigation bar in the template. Has this been moved place since the instruction video was recorded?

Re: Creating your own templates with shapes

Okay, so you saved your page as "template"

Then you go into your BV web builder and go to FILE, "New Page From Template" ... the folder will open and show the templates you have made, you choose the one, then a popup box will pop up and file name will be empty, you must name that file, then it will open for you to use as your template, then when you add your content, you name and save and publish your page as you like ....

Re: Creating your own templates with shapes

Well that would be a new one! The SE dont READ images or shapes pers se, but do read the alt tags. How templates would affect your SEO would be OLD as most catalogue driven software used templates and dynamic pages. SE are reading dynamic pages more and more and its becoming less and less of an issue, as long as you keep the strings to one or two parameters.
