Creating the Header
Header:

• First, click on “Navigation”
You will see 3 categories, “Home Page”, “Top Level Header Pages”, and “Additional Pages to Publish”.
Home page: Choose a page to assign for your designated home page by clicking “Add Page” and selecting your preferred home page from the dropdown menu.
Top Level Header Pages: Choose all of the pages that you would like listed as normal toolbar options on the top header of your website by clicking “Add Page” and individually selecting all of the pages you prefer to have on your website.
• You can rearrange the order of how the pages appear by dragging each box by the green paper symbol on the left side.
4. Additional Web Pages to Publish: Choose pages that you want to be published but either not appear on the top tool bar or appear in a button format rather than the traditional toolbar format by selecting “Add Page” and individually selecting all additional pages you would like to publish.
• Again, you can rearrange the order of these pages by clicking and dragging them by the paper symbol on the left side.
Next, click on “Header” on the top toolbar.
You will first see an option that says, “Header Logo Position”. This dropdown helps you select where on the toolbar you would like your logo located.
Next, there will be a dropdown with the title “Header Options”. On this dropdown, you can choose your header color, header scheme, icon color, and header position.
Beneath that, there is a dropdown titled “Additional Buttons”. Here you can add header buttons for additional pages that you published, or you can create a button linking to an outer url.
• To add a button, click the small plus sign in the far right corner.
• Add your button text, and then select your button target page that it will be linked to. If you are choosing an outer url, select the box that says “Open New Tab” and the target page text box will change to a url text box. Here is where you can enter the url that you would like the button linked to.
• Last, select the drop down next to the url option text box to choose the style of your button.
• Click the yellow “Add Button” box to add the button.
4. Last you will see a dropdown for “Social Network Icons”. Here you can link social media accounts through icons on your header.
• To add a button, click the small plus sign on the far right corner. You will then be able to choose an icon through the dropdown that shows up underneath, and add a url to link the account in the text box, and then click the yellow “Add” Button to add it.
To save your changes, click the save button on the bottom. You can view all your changes as they are made if you scroll down on your screen to see the preview.
