RE: How To Use The Form Builder - Christina Swinehart

Fri, 16 May 2008 14:20:15 -0500

I love the forms. They are simple to set up.

Can I make sure my form is the first thing people see when the go to my site? Then, I would like to take it one step further. After they fill out my form, can they be redirected to a page based on the information they provide? For instance, I have different age ranges visiting. I have a different presentation for kids than I do for adults. I have a drop-down that allows the visitor to input their age range. I would love it if the kids could automatically be directed to the kids page. Thank you for your help.

Phyllis,

Did you see this page? http://creativecommons.org/license/

You can say what type of license you would like, then it generates an HTML Button for you. You can paste that into your sidebar our footer using the red gear icon.

Hello - does anyone have any recommendations for copyrighting the original text content of my site?

I have seen several tools in the market that are available with other web-building software. I have also looked into Creative Commons (www.creativecommons.org), but I cannot figure out where on my web site I would paste their HTML verbiage to have the registration show up properly on my site.

Any thoughts and/or ideas would be appreciated.

No problem. Check out how bbc.co.uk approaches it at the bottom of each page - quite a nice format.

Still waiting on that affiliate program ;-)

You know Dan, that's not a bad idea :). We should look into at least setting this up on our blog. Thanks for the suggestion!

Are there any plans to add inbuilt social bookmarking 'submit to' buttons to doodlekit so visitors can tag pages to Digg, Stumbleupon, Del.icio.us, etc?

What you can do is register a new domain name with a company like GoDaddy, then follow these instructions.

Change domain name? - Phyllis Neill

Tue, 06 May 2008 15:42:51 -0500

Hi - just signed up for your product. Very easy to use; I am happy with my decision. However, I originally set it up with one domain name, and now I'd like to change it to another name. How do I go about doing that? I understand if I have to pay some kind of fee to not use the former name anymore and start using the new name. Thanks in advance for your direction on this...

Change Fonts is not working - David Jereos

To Admin,

I am trying to change fonts but its not working, what's the problem

Dave,

I overcame this with the placement of various photos on new pages and then to hide these pages from the menu (in my case the users must also login to view the page).

After populating various pages (making new pages from the Edit Menu) with photographs I linked these "photo-pages" to a front-end page that acts as a mini-album menu. So when a user click on a "photo-page" link he / she will be taken to the specific "photo-page" and from there will be able to navigate to similar pages or other parts of the website.

Unfortunately I cannot show you the pages as it is the classwork from one of my classes - and it is not viewable to the rest of my online student community.

Hope this helps. Contact me via http://www.vernonchalmers.com/contact should you require more information.

Ok, I see now. I was really hoping to be able to have the photo album function available on each separate page.

Did you install the Editor?

http://www.doodlekit.com/forum/topic/762?page=1#message1914

If you have the editor, you should see a button that lets you add images to the page. It wont be just like the album, but you can simulate it. There is only one album.

Hi Ben

When I add a new page, there is nothing in it by default. There doesnt seem to be any option to hide any other features like you suggest. I have worked out how to insert code from other sources such as Google Maps but where do I get the code to insert, say, a photo album (not just images) or a blog onto the pages I create. Basically I want to put a photo album just like the one that is defaulted on page 2 and I can't seem to find the code anywhere. Are you saying that when I create a new page I should expect to see a photo album, blog etc etc already there by default? Reallty confused here and need help!

Thanks

Your photo albums, blog, and contact us pages are all special pages that contain specific functionality. It sounds like you want to create new pages with specific content.

So what you need to do is create new Pages, using the "Add new Page" button for Drama, Art, etc. Then you can insert images from your photo album into those pages. Then you can hide the other features like Blog if you don't want to use them.

Actually we do Email Forwarding, so you can forward an email address with your domain name, to another email address. But no, we do not have Exchange Hosting.

Hi - I am checking out this service for the possibility of using it at my school to allow our teachers to collaboratively update a department website. Anyway, I am only using the free service at the moment but am a bit stuck. At the moment I have got the default setup where the first page is home, the second has a blog, the thirad a photo gallery \, the next a email form etc etc. How do I put these features onto other pages rather than those that are defaulted? For eg if you look at http://artsbenowa.doodlekit.com/home I want to put a photo gallery on all the pages, not just where art is. Also I notice the page urls are still showing as "http://artsbenowa.doodlekit.com/blog" rather than "http://artsbenowa.doodlekit.com/dance" How can I fix this?

RE: What URL should I use for my pages? - Ben Kittrell

It appears as though you are using the "Add new link" button, instead of "Add new page". A Link is just a link to an already existing page. To create a new pages from scratch, click "Add new page".

What URL should I use for my pages? - Christina Swinehart

Tue, 22 Apr 2008 15:01:40 -0500

I have added new pages, but a URL is required. I am not sure what URL I am supposed to type in here. I have tried my website name slash the new page name (www.piggybankable.com/kids). However, when I attempt to go to that page for editing, it is not found. Then, I tried www.piggybankable.com/home/kids, and I get "Something's Awry".

Help!
