Website Management

• Files within the website are managed by this website builder. When you move or rename files or directories within the Website Explorer, any links on the web pages referencing these files or directories will be updated automatically.
• You can drop external files to the website explorer of this website builder or directly to the active web page if they are gif, jpg or png files.
• You can drag binary files out of the website explorer.
• When you delete a file which is still referenced by any web pages, a warning will be given. This minimizes the chances of missing files when your site is published.
• You can easily back up and restore your websites.

Responsive Web Design

• Support creating website that works on desktop, tablet and mobile devices. Just select the layout rules appropriate to each element in tablet and mobile layout. The elements will adapt automatically to the width of the browser windows. There is generally no need to rearrange elements at each specific breakpoint for different type of devices. Check out the tutorial here to see how this can be done.
• There are two general breakpoints, tablet and mobile. When the width of the browser window is smaller than the width of your page, the tablet layout will be triggered and when the width of the browser window reaches the specified mobile breakpoint (default is 768 px), the mobile layout will be triggered. In tablet layout, the layout of the elements are generally the same as the desktop except the size of the elements are resized to fit in the new width. In mobile layout, a single column approach will be used. However, elements can be added to a mobile group so that their layout can be arranged together like placing them side by side if the width of the browser window can accommodate them and when wrapping occurs, they will be shown vertically in a single column. You can check out some sample websites to see how they work.
• Commonly used text elements which work well on responsive web design can be created by selecting from a set of text templates or inserting a hero image (large web banner image with text overlay), saving your time from creating them from scratch. They can be customized easily after creation.
