I uploaded my own custom logo. Why is it
overlapped by my domain name?
When you upload your own custom Top Image (or Logo), the text
that is entered in the Customize Logo section of the Look
and Feel Selector will overlap your uploaded image.
Does your image already contain all of the text that you
want your logo to show? Then remove the default logo text
from the Look and Feel Selector by following these easy
steps...
1) Click the Look and Feel Selector button in All
Pages section in Site Central.
2) Click the Customize Logo button for the style
you are currently using.
3) Click the field beside the Enter Logo Text
label and press Ctrl+A to mark all text. Then press
the Delete key on your keyboard to delete all
text.
4) Click the Customize Logo button at the bottom
of the screen.
5) Click the Go to Look and Feel Selector button
on the next screen.
6) Click the Select/Save This Style button for
your style.
Your site will now be rebuilt with your new logo, a
process that may take up to 30 minutes.
If after 30 minutes, you still see your old logo, you may
be viewing a cached copy of your pages and images. Please
hold down the Ctrl key and press F5 to do a full refresh of
your browser.

I was working on Look and Feel yesterday but I don't know how to get back to it. What do I need to do?
Let's review the situation. You finished your Look &
Feel and clicked on the 'Select This Style' button. Now you
would like to make some changes. No problem. It's easy to
do.
Log into Site Central...
http://login.sitesell.com/
Click on the LOGIN Site Build It! button. This will bring
you to Build Your SiteBuilder Page.
Why this page and not the Look & Feel page where you were
yesterday? Here's why. At this point, you can only access
the Look and Feel Selector functionality through Site
Central. But to get into that part of Site Central, you
must first build your home page.
And that's what you are going to do now -- not a final
version but just a rough draft. All you need to do is
insert 'test' into all the blank fields on the Build Your
SiteBuilder Page, except for one. For the Body Copy field,
insert 'Coming Soon' or 'Under Construction'. Then click
the Build It! button. You're ready for Site Central!
Click on the Site Central link in the upper right corner of
the Build Your SiteBuilder Page. At Site Central, scroll
down to the Site Build It! SiteBuilder section and click on
the Look and Feel Selector button. Voila! You can tweak
until you're satisfied.
Then what?
Continue with DAY 6 by building your home page properly.
Just click on the Edit SiteBuilder Home Page button (in the
same SiteBuilder section of Site Central).

Can I stretch my page structure the way I
want it?
SiteBuilder builds a page in such a way that visitors,
regardless of the width of their monitor or their display
settings, will be able to view the page without having to
scroll left to right as they move up and down a page.
As an SBI! Forums moderator points out, useability studies
show that shorter length text is easier to read and won't
strain the eyes as much as longer lines do. The more
comfortable and satisfied your visitors are about your site,
the longer they will stay.
If you wish to have total control over the design of your
page, you can create your own page and upload it through the
HTML Editor Compatibility module.
Please see this helpful discussion about page width
advice/tips in the SBI! Forums, under the category, Using
SiteBuilder Look & Feel Templates.

Why didn't my Look and Feel change after I updated it?
Any changes you make to your current Look & Feel (which is
identified by the red frame on the Look&Feel Selector Page)
will only take effect after you click the Select This
Style button for that style. Please keep in mind that
when you do a preview, you are not seeing your page live on
the Net. You are viewing a mock-up.
Unfortunately, if you complete an editing session without
clicking on the Select This Style button, the changes
will not be saved. Your original Look & Feel remains as the
current style. You will need to repeat your customization
work.
Rebuilding your site with a new Look & Feel is a resource-
intensive process. Depending on the current server load, it
may take up to 15-30 minutes for all your pages to be
updated.
If you are still not seeing your new changes after this time
allowance, you may be viewing an older version of your site
from your ISP's or your browser's cache. To solve this
caching issue, please try the following...
1) Go to your site's home page.
2) Hold down the Ctrl key and press the F5
button. (For MAC users, it's Command R.) This will force
your browser to redownload any images it has stored in its
cache.
All should be well now. However, if you are still having
problems, please contact our Support team using the form
at...
http://support.sitesell.com/contact-support.html
Please include your domain name and the steps you have
already taken to try to update your Look & Feel. Thank you
in advance for this helpful information.
