The Pages and Popups section is a major part of your site.

  • Pages allow you to reorder, manage and create new pages on your site. Organize your site's widgets by using multiple pages to improve your visitors' experience and increases the chance that they will find the information they need.

  • Popups allow you to add new popups to your site. Popups are a type of small window that appears on a web page. Popups can be set up to appear when clicked as a link or automatically as an action from a personalization rule. Use popups to grab users' attention or provide information without having to change pages.

Note: You can create a maximum of 1000 site pages and popups and 1500 blog pages. Dynamic pages do not count toward the page count.

To access pages and popups, in the left panel, click Pages.

Pages

Add Pages

To add new pages to your site:

  1. In the left panel, click Pages.

  2. Click + New Page

  3. Select a page type. Page templates are pre-populated with relevant widgets. The Page URL page type links the page to another URL instead of creating a new page. Selecting a dynamic page template automatically adds a connected Internal Collection.

  4. Type a title for your new page, and a URL, if necessary.

  5. Click + Add Page and start creating your new page.

Reorganize Pages

To reorganize the order pages displayed on your site:

  1. In the left panel, click Pages.

  2. Click and drag a page to move it where you want it to appear in order.

  3. Drag a page slightly to the right to nest the page as a sub-page of the page above. For more information about folders, see Add a Navigation Folder.

Page Settings

Access page settings by clicking the settings (the icon is next to each page).

You have the following options:

  • Rename. Rename the page in the editor. (Note: This does not change the page URL.)

  • Hide in navigation. Make the page hidden on the navigation menu. It will still be visitable by the direct URL.

  • Duplicate. Creates an exact copy of the page.

  • Lock for Client editing. Lock pages so clients can only view, not edit or delete.

  • Publish page. Publish changes on a single page.

  • Page URL. Customize the URL for the page.

  • SEO. Access all the SEO settings for this page.

  • Set Access. Set a password for the page or configure the page for members only. For more information, see Password Protected Pages.

  • Convert to Dynamic Page. Click to convert the page to a dynamic page. Select a collection, and click Done.

  • Delete.

SEO

Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the visibility of a site or a web page in a search engine's un-paid search results. Sometimes this is called "natural" or "organic" traffic. From the Site's SEO menu, you can edit the page Title, Description, and Keywords. You can also edit the header HTML for that page only. For more information, see Site SEO Settings.

We recommend adding SEO information (title and descriptions) on the page level, so each page can have a unique title and description. This is more beneficial than having one title and description shared across the entire site.

Prevent Search Engines from Indexing a Page

For maximum SEO benefits, all pages of your site are discoverable by search engines. However, if you would like to instruct search engines to drop or not include this page in their index after they crawl the page, you can do that in the page settings.

Note: Pages protected with membership access are not accessible to site crawlers. However, if a user logs into a membership-protected page and copies the CDN link to a file or image, they will be able to share it.

  1. In the left panel, click Pages.

  2. Click the settings (the icon for the specific page).

  3. Click SEO.

  4. Click the No Index toggle. This instructs search engines to drop or not include this page in their index after they crawl the page.

This action will only affect a single page. You will need to mark this setting for each page you do not want to be indexed.

Note

  • If this page was previously indexed, this change will take several weeks for search engines to update and remove the page.

  • This setting adds the <meta name="robots" content="noindex"> tag into the head of the page for search engines to read.

Popups

Note: Popups are not supported on multi-language sites.

Add Popups

To add popups:

  1. In the left panel, click Pages, and then click the Popups tab.

  2. Click + New Popup.

  3. Select a popup type. The popup type pre-populates the popup with widgets.

  4. Type a name for your popup, and click + Add Popup

Activate Popups

Unlike a page generated in the navigation automatically, a popup can only be triggered by being clicked as a link or by using a site personalization rule.

Link to a Popup

There are several widgets that allow you to link to a popup, such as Photo Gallery image links, text, and buttons.

To link to a popup:

  1. Right-click the widget that you want to link to the popup from, then select Edit content. Alternatively, if you are linking from text, highlight the desired text and click the link icon in the text editing menu.

  2. Click Popup, then select which popup you want to link to from the dropdown menu.

Use Personalization Rules to Condition a Popup

You can create a popup using site personalization or set personalization rules for an existing popup. Personalization rules can include what triggers the popup to appear, how quickly the popup appears on the screen, and more.

To learn how to create personalization rules, see Personalization Rules.

Note

  • Popup triggers only occur once per session. A session is any activity on the site that remains active until at least 30-60 minutes have passed.

  • To see your personalization rule in action, try 1) clearing your cookies and cache, 2) using another browser, or 3) waiting until the time has expired.

Edit Popups

A popup is very similar to a page. You can add new rows, and columns and insert any widget into a popup. To adjust the size of the popup, drag the bottom right corner.

Popup Settings

To edit the settings for a popup:

  1. In the left panel, click Pages, and then click the Popups tab.

  2. Click the settings (the icon for specific popups).

    You have the following options:

    • Rename. Rename the popup in the editor. (Note: This does not change the page URL.)

    • Duplicate. Creates an exact copy of the popup.

    • Delete. Deletes the popup. This action is irreversible unless you have a backup.
