How do I add or manage a section on my website?

Please note: this article only applies to Version 9 of our Website Builder. If you’re not sure which version you have, you can find out by reading this article.
Adding a new section
Start by logging in to Website Builder.
From there, hover your cursor around the area you’d like to add your section. An outline should appear around that area, along with a + icon. Move your cursor towards this + icon and select the Add Section button that appears.
The screen will then darken and a menu will appear on the right-hand side of your screen, displaying a list of sections. This will include:
- Audio & Video: add links to your music, videos, livestreams and podcasts.
- Blog & Newsletter: allow visitors to subscribe to your email newsletter.
- Commerce: promote your products and services.
- Contact: allow visitors to get in touch with you.
- Files & Web: insert custom HTML code or allow visitors to download files such as menus or event information.
- General: a collection of miscellaneous options, including buttons, countdown timers and menus, along with pre-made content.
- Image Gallery: showcase your collection of photos.
- Restaurant: sections designed specifically for restaurant businesses, including menus and reservations.
- Scheduling: display your upcoming events.
- Social: add customer reviews and live social media feeds, along with links to your main channels
Once you’ve found your preferred section, click the Add button that appears below it to include it on your page.
Please note: some section can only be added once throughout your entire website, such as Online Appointments.
Editing sections
Find and click the section that you want to edit.
Upon clicking your section, you will now be given several options within the right-hand menu. This will typically include the following:
- Layout: the default appearance.
- Accent: the main colours used.
- Title: the main heading.
- Text: the wording that appears.
You can also change some of the text within your section by directly clicking on it. From there, you can use formatting options like bold, italics and underline to make your wording stand out.
Once you’re happy with your changes, click Done to return to the main site navigation menu.
