Choosing and customising a template in Sitejet Builder

The template is your starting point: it brings sections, colours and fonts that already work together. Everything in it can be changed. If you have not opened the builder yet, start with getting started with Sitejet Builder.

Choosing the template

Templates are grouped by type of business, and all of them adapt on their own to tablets and phones.

Tip: choose by the layout of the sections, not by the photos. Images and colours change in minutes; changing the structure takes longer.

Changing text, images and colours

1 To edit text, double-click it and type over it.
2 To change an image, double-click it and replace it with your own.
3 To change an element's colours, sizes and spacing, double-click it and use the Style panel on the left.

Adding and moving blocks

1 In the left-hand bar, pick the category of the element you want (text, image, button, form and more).
2 Drag it onto the page. A green line shows where it will land. Drop it.

The site's pages

In the Pages area you add subpages, change each page's name and address, and write its title and description for Google — see page titles and descriptions for Google.

If the site needs more than one language, the builder has that option: it creates the new version of the pages and you then translate each one.

The contact form

The builder's forms work out of the box: you set which e-mail address receives the messages and the subject line. Once published, the site itself sends them, from our server.

Tip: use an address on your own domain as the destination — see how to create an e-mail account in cPanel.
Test after publishing: send yourself a message through the form and check it arrived, including in the spam folder.

Before you publish

Check the site at all three widths — desktop, tablet and phone — and only then publish.
