Your wedding website is your digital playground, and the Settings tab is where the magic happens. It’s like being handed the keys to a candy store – you get to pick and choose all the sweet stuff you want. From rearranging pages to crafting a website that’s all about you, it’s in your control. Let’s dive in and turn that website into a masterpiece that even Picasso would be impressed by (okay, maybe not, but close!).
To access the Settings Page
- Click that little menu button (it’s the hamburger icon in the upper corner of your admin dashboard),.
- Select Event Settings.
- When you land on the Settings page from the admin dashboard, you’ll spot four tabs at the top left: General, Menu, Security & Privacy, and Admin.
General Tab
We’ll start by unraveling the wonders of the ‘General’ tab.
Here, you’re the captain of customizations. You can tweak the basics of your site, like:
- Joy URL (that’s the unique name in your web address).
- Event display name (how your names show up).
- Update your announcement banner.
- Set your event date, location, and timezone.
- Feeling fancy? You can decide whether to display an event countdown or the “Get Our App” page.
- And if you ever want to bid farewell to your site, you can do that right here too.
- Remember to hit ‘Save’ in the top right corner after making any changes
Menu Tab
Now, let’s talk ‘Menu.’ This is where you get to arrange, rename, and control your event pages.
- To rearrange pages: Click and drag on the dotted rectangle next to each page name.
- Need a new title for a page? Click the page name, and a dialog box will pop up for your creative juices to flow with the title of the page.
- Want to disable or enable a page? In that same handy dialog box you see when you click the page name, you can choose whether to “Show page in menu” or not.
Security & Privacy
Time for a chat about ‘Security & Privacy.’
You’ve got a handful of settings here to match your style:
- Change your event password (that secret key to access private sections) at the top of the page.
- Customize your Search Privacy to hide from the “Find A Couple” feature or search engines.
- Set the privacy mode of your website and event pages. Go fully private, entirely public, or mix it up with ‘Custom.’
- With ‘Custom,’ you’re the boss and can decide which pages need a password and which can stay public. Password-protected pages stay hidden until guests enter the magic code by clicking “Guest Only Details.”
A quick tip: If your mobile app is involved, the event password is needed to unlock everything at once upon logging in.
Admin
Lastly, let’s take a peek at the ‘Admin’ tab.
Here, you can see:
- Who’s running the show (owner/admins of the site).
- Who’s waiting in the wings (pending admin invites).
- Add new admins.
- Pass the ownership torch (transfer event ownership).
- Revoke admin privileges.
And that’s a wrap! Your site is now tailored to you. Happy planning, and may your wedding website be as unique as your love story! 😄
