About predefined templates
You can always start customizing your pages using the predefined templates available on your account.
Select a template that you will use for your page. It should automatically direct you to edit the page. Otherwise, select Next.
After you customize a page, save it as a new template so you can use it as a starting point for your future pages. Select the Save as Template icon just above the page editor.
Responsive Design: Create sales pages for desktop and mobile
Your online store and sales pages are accessible to your students, viewers, or readers using either a desktop or mobile. Since the device affects how your pages look, it’s best to consider how your page would look like on these platforms.
From the upper part of the page editor, you can switch from desktop to mobile view to see how your current customization will look on both devices.
You can select which rows or blocks you want to hide on either the desktop or the mobile view. When you add contents, each content type has a Responsive Design property so you can manage which content to show and hide on either desktop or mobile.
Customize your sales pages
From the predefined template, you can start customizing the layout, design, and contents of your page. This section aims to give you an overview of each editor tool and editing features you will need to use during the customization process.
If you need to change the template you want to use, select the All templates icon right above the page editor.
Before you start, we use the term “blocks” when pertaining to the boxes where we’ll place the contents.
Set up your default style for the body of your sales page. This pertains to the default layout and design of general texts and headings, background color, alignment, and so on that you’ll add as contents.
Since we’re only setting defaults, this means that you can still override these defaults when you start adding and editing content blocks to your page.
- From the page editor, go to Body.
- Set your preferred defaults by customizing the property. Use this table below.
Property Group Properties General Text Color: Use the color picker to set a default color for your texts.
Background Color: Use the color picker to set a default color for your content blocks.
Content Width: By default, it consumes the entire space available in the block. Use the counter to adjust or enter the value for your content width.
Content Alignment: Select if you want to align your texts and contents as centered or left-indented.
Font Family: By default, it is set to Arial. To change the default font style for your texts, use the dropdown.
Email Settings The email settings allow you to add a Preheader Text. It’s a summary text, usually a short one-liner, following the subject line when recipients view the email from the inbox.
Link Color: This pertains to the color of the texts with hyperlinks. To set a default color, use the color picker.
Underline: Traditionally, we underline texts with hyperlinks. To disable this, select the toggle.
Rows help you organize the horizontal order of the contents on your page. You can vertically divide each row in columns based on the width of the content blocks you’ll add.
Depending on your strategy, you can add multiple content blocks in a column, such as combining a heading with a text block, button with a text block, and so on. Combining the blocks expands the height of the row.
Follow these steps to add a row, column, or blocks.
- From the page editor, select Blocks. It has predefined row layouts depending on your needs. You can have the whole row as one block, a row divided into two columns and have two blocks, or so on.
