Edit or Delete a Link List

 

 

 

 

A Link List tells a visitor what pages are related to the page he/she is on,

 and allows the visitor to go to any of those related pages

 by clicking on the title. 

 

With Webtreepro lists can be located anywhere on your page.

 

They can show related pages in

 a Vertical list, Dropdown list or in a Horizontal list. 

The lists can have special Fonts, Font Colors,

 and Colored Backgrounds

         

 

There, undoubtedly, will be times that a Link List

will need to be changed in some way, or even deleted.

  Let's take a look at all our options.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 1.   Generally, we use a variety of tools when editing.  When you are in Edit Mode, these tools are always seen at the top of the

       screen, and are available for use on every  page of your site, with one exception.  The Form Building Icons can only be

       used when working on a Form.

 

  • For a complete description of all the editing tools, see the page A Quick Look at the Editing Icons and What They Can Do,

          or click here.

                                                          

                                                                                                                                            Link List Properties flyout

To edit a Link List, go to the first page where it was created. 

 

You cannot edit a Link List anywhere else.

 

In Edit Mode, right click on the Link List.

 The Link List Properties flyout will appear.

 

If you don't remember where you created the Link List, go to any page

 and do a right click on the Link List itself.  The Link List Properties flyout

will appear, seen in the upper right corner. 

Then, click Info.  The Element Info flyout will appear, seen below. 

 

Look at "Origin Page." 

 We see the Link List was created on the "Admin page." 

 

 

Now, you can go to the Admin page, and edit or delete the Link List,

following the instructions below. 

 

 

 

 

   2.   The Link List Properties flyout offers information and editing choices.  Click on each subject to see what they offer.

 

      • Info:  This offers specific information about the Link List, such as the Origin of the site, the Placement (whether the Link List is shown on all pages), who created the Link List, etc.
      • Hide: It allows you to hide the Link List when it is in Published Mode.  This is especially helpful if the Link List is not ready to be seen by a visitor.  Also, it's handy to use if a Parent site has content being pushed to a Child site, but doesn't want it seen on the Parent site.
      • Opt in:  This is not available for Link Lists.
      • Delete:  If you click on this, a "Warning" pop-up will appear, as seen below.  Click OK to go ahead and delete the

                    Link List.  Click Cancel to avoid deleting the Link List

 

 

      • Move to:  The arrow allows you to move the Link List to different areas on the page.  The choices offered are:  Up,  Down,  Move Last.  These choices can be used in  the current panel.  Other choices offer to move the Link List to panels outside  the current panel, such as, to the Main panel, the Header, the Footer, or to the Menu panel.

 

 

 

      • Properties:  Click it, and it will take you to the Page Elements wizard.  The wizard's tabs are seen above.  You can go through each tab and change most Link List components.  To review what each tab offers, you can always return to the "Adding Link Lists" page that relates to your particular type of Link List.  For your convenience, there are links to these pages below.

 

   1.   The Placement tab is where you can choose to have the Link List shown on only one page, or all pages.  You cannot

          change the Panel where the Link List is placed. To review Placement, click here.

   2.   The Details tabs are where you can change the Link List's font style, font color and/or background color.  To review the

          Vertical Link List's Details tab, click here.     To review the Horizontal Link List's Details tab, click here.    To review

           the Dropdown Link List Details tab, click here.         

   3.   The Publish Dates tab is where you can set Start and Stop Dates to control the visitor's viewing of the Link List.  To review

           Publish Dates, click here.

    4.   The Visibility tab is where you can choose who is allowed to see the Link List.  To review Visibility, click here.

    5.   The Publishing tab is for Parent sites only.  Content can be required or optional for any child sites. 

           To review Publishing, click here.

 

 

Sometimes, you might need to edit in only one of the Page Elements tabs. 

Just go to the top of the screen, and click on the tab you need. 

 

Do your editing, and then click Finish

No matter which tab you are on the Finish button will save all your changes, and bring you back to the page you're working on. 

 

You don't have to go through each tab of Page Elements to leave the wizard. 

 

    
 

 

If you want to change the specific "look" of the Link List you selected, you will need to go to the Details

Common Properties section, and switch to a Vertical, Horizontal, or Dropdown Link List.

 

The below examples show the choices for the three positions of Link Lists. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As you can see by comparing the three screens, each Link List style requires you to make different editing selections.
