I have edited my website via Web Site Builder, but my site has not been updated; what should I do?
Make sure you clicked the "Publish" link of your Web Site Builder: a page putting you on hold will appear, according to the weight of your site. You will then be informed once publication has been completed.
I've got problems with my WebSite Builder: what should I do?
Web Site Builder contains a complete pdf manual that you can always view by clicking the link on the left hand side of the page. Besides this guide, an animated demo will always be at your disposal to help the user create its site. You will also find the icon [?] in different parts of the editor; by sliding your mouse over it, an explanatory page related to that point of the editor will be displayed.
What can I do with my Web Site Builder?
Web Site Builder for courtesy page allows you to create/edit a page by inserting a photo that you can choose out of a series of graphical templates and by editing a welcoming text. Web Site Builder for building websites is a much stronger tool that allows you to build high complexity websites thanks to its easy-to-use interfaces. Web site Builder allows you to build a 30 pages web site. You can start by choosing one out of hundreds of graphical proposals and go on creating image galleries, contact forms, content pages, intro in flash and much more. All the changes you make will be saved in Web Site Builder memory and will be displayed as a preview to you only as long as you decide to click "Publish".
Is there anything I cannot do with my Web Site Builder?
Many of the functions that you find in Web Site Builder for web sites cannot be found in Web Site Builder for courtesy page. The only way to upgrade the higher service is to purchase a hosting product. You can choose out of several offers on Linux as well as on Windows. Please remember that all the data you save on wizard will be stored only and exclusively in Tucows archives. Do not change your registry data before having changed it in your Control Panel first. Please remember that by swapping from a hosting to another (windows hosting versus linux hosting and vice versa) you will lose all the data you saved in your Web Site Builder. However, you will still be able to activate a new Web Site Builder and restart building your web site.
How can I get Web Site Builder?
Web Site Builder is an easy tool for creating web pages. It was developed by the famous American software house Tucows and it is now available in two different versions. Register.it gives you the basic one for free with every domain registration. This version allows you to create a courtesy page, that is, a presentation page, that reminds for instance those accessing it that the rest of the site is being built. A more advanced version is available for all the domains that have been associated with a Windows as well as with a Linux hosting packet. Activating it is easy and free of charge: access the Hosting management page of your Control Panel on Register.it and click either “build your site". You will then access a page where you will be asked, this time only, to activate the service with just one click. The service will be active in about an hour. Once the service has been activated, you will be able to access the new web page editor from this page.
The window function is blocked, a message asks me to upgrade the product, can I use it?
Besides other functions, Tucows has also introduced the option of creating a virtual cart with related final payment. For now Register.it has decided not to provide this service. We prefer to make sure the software is fully compatible with our systems, so as to guarantee an adequate security level for those who wish this kind of shopping and online payments.
How can I swap from the basic version to Web Site Builder for websites?
You can purchase one of our hosting products by choosing out of the several options that Register.it offers on Linux as well as on Windows platform. You will automatically have access to your new full version Web Site Builder.
Can I insert some JavaScript code into the pages I created with web site builder?
No, we suggest you do not insert any JavaScript code into the pages you created with your Web Site Builder.
Insertion of parts of this code into these pages jeopardises the correct functioning of the editor for that specific web page, which will no longer be manageable and will therefore need to be created all over again.
Are there any limitations on the use of the photo album?
Yes, the photo album you created with Website Builder can contain 500 photos at the most. In order to avoid losing any loss of images, we also invite you to avoid moving the page containing your photo album from the location were you placed it originally to another one.
