Quick guide

Open one of your website pages in a browser and replace the ending of the URL string from *.html to *.page. Enter your name and pass­word, then con­firm.

New icons will be loaded at the top of the page.

Click on “Edit” to open ad­ditor® in a new tab – on the left you will see the page hier­archy, in the middle the layout of your page and on the right the page set­tings.

Select a page

To se­lect a page for edit­ing, simply click on the page icon in the page tree. Any pages you are not permitted to edit will be crossed out.

By clicking on the ar­row in front of a page icon all re­lated sub­pages will be dis­played.

Create new pages

Click the but­ton „new page“  located at the top left of the navigation bar. Choose one of the page tem­plates which will then appear in the center of the window. Use „drag and drop“ to drag the page type into the page tree on the left. The page must be one for which you have editing permission. This new page will then automatically be added as a subordinated page to the existing one.

Copy page

You can copy an ex­ist­ing page and paste it onto a dif­fer­ent place in the page tree. Make a right click on the de­sired page in the page tree. A con­text menu will ap­pear. Choose "copy" and the page will appear in the clip­board at the top left of the win­dow. From here you can paste the page per drag & drop any­where in the page tree.

Delete page

Make a right click on the page icon in the page tree. Se­lect "De­lete" in the con­text menu shown.

You can add sec­tions with the “New Sec­tion” but­ton and add entries with the “New Entry” but­ton. Simply drag and drop­ one of the “sec­tion” or “entry” types offered on the right into the page lay­out.

To edit an ele­ment click on its icon in the page lay­out. The set­ting op­tions for that ele­ment are shown to the right  (e.g. enter text, load a pic­ture, etc.).

Use the “De­lete” but­ton in the bot­tom right corner to re­move any ele­ments you don’t want and the “Con­firm” but­ton to save any changes. When you click the “Dis­play in Browser” but­ton in the top left corner the changes will be made and the new page will be displayed in the browser.

Copy content elements

You can copy any sec­tion or entry to an­other po­s­i­tion on the cur­rent page or to any other page. Make a right click on the icon to the top left of the required sec­tion or entry. If you se­lect "copy" the ele­ment will be shown in the clip­board and you can drag it from there to the de­sired po­s­i­tion.

If you want to see the res­ult of your work, click the  "dis­play" but­ton in the top left corner. Your changes will then be displayed directly in the win­dow in which you star­ted into edit mode.  

In the icon bar you can click on "To pub­lished ver­sion" re­spect­ively "To edit ver­sion" to toggle between the ver­sions of the page.

If you are not sure which pages have edit ver­sions, check the page tree: a green bul­let marks an edit ver­sion, an or­ange bul­let marks a pub­lished ver­sion. If both bul­lets are dis­played you can toggle between both ver­sions.

Changes to pub­lished pages (or­ange) are immediately vis­ible on­line.

If you are re­spons­ible for a page, you can pub­lish an edit ver­sion your­self (But­ton "Pub­lish edit ver­sion").

Oth­er­wise you have to re­quest publishing permission for the edit ver­sion from a re­spons­ible per­son.
