IMPORTANT:  Because you are making the changes, I will not have a backup file of your new page.  Save each page on your computer by going to it on the Internet and using the "Save AS" feature on your browser, save a copy to your computer.  Contact me for more information concerning this important step if need assistance.

 If you "loose a page" or need to go back to an earlier version, you will need to reload it.  Simply go to your saved copy on your computer, open it in your browser, right click the page to "view source", copy ALL of the HTML code and then open the page in you EDIT PLUS.  Using the advanced option, open the page and "paste" the code onto the page.  Save, and it should be resurrected.

General Directions
The Edit Plus pages are set up in a template so that you can add items, images, and text in one of several formats.  The Monthly Calendar, for example, will have a space for 12 months and sub-categories under each.  General pages may be set up so you can do either a center format or left aligned format.  You can mix these formats or skip all the center and just do left, or all center.  You may have a very specialized layout, specifically designed for your needs. Experiment to lear the layout. 

 For the image code, you will usually use <img src "../images/filename.jpg"> or if inside a hyperlink tag:  <a href.......</a>.  If you image is loaded correctly, it will appear on the page where this code is located. vbv  More information on Images...

After you have filled in the Edit Plus form, just click the "Save Changes" button at the bottom of the page.  Most of your editing can be done in the "standard mode", however, the advanced HTML codes are available if you need them.  The advanced section should be use sparingly.  Always make a backup before you do any changes.  If you see some codes already in the format, be very careful if you change them. 

NOTE:  When you return to the page you have edited, be sure to refresh so you can see the latest changes. 

Useful HTML Code and Tips
The following are useful HTML codes that will enhance your final web page.  Please note that in HTML, you will usually need the beginning code and the ending code or it may not work properly.  The beginning code is enclosed like this:  <P>,and the end code has a slash like this:  </P>. 

• To make a paragraph, just hit enter twice.
• To Start a new line, hit enter once.
• Hyperlinks to web pages and emails will be added automatically if you type the complete address starting with the http://..... 

<LI> List with bullets or numbers. If you want to add items to an existing list every line must start with this code. This is one of the few codes that does not need an ending code.

<B>bold</B> Or sometimes you may see <strong> </strong>
<i>italic</i>
<U>underline</U>
<big>increase font size by one size</big>

One very  handy bit of code will insert a horizontal line.  Just enter <hr>

<font>change font or color </font>  For example, by adding the following:  <font color="red">Temporarily SOLD OUT</font> You will add a Red Sold message to your page.  Modify the wording as you wish.

 If you are adding a hyperlink to an image so that it can be enlarged, do so in the following format:
<a href="../images/imagename-enlarged.jpg"><img src="../images/imagename_small.jpg"  width="210" height="150"></a>

The hyperlink is enclosed within the <a > ....</a> tags.  The href="..... " refers to the actual hyperlink or enlarged image.  The image that you see on the page is enclosed within  the <img src="......">   tag.  Be sure you have loaded BOTH images or this will not work.

Uploading Images
Go to the Upload Image page (the link will be on your Edit Plus Manager) and browse to where the image is located on your computer.  Double click the image file and the file name should appear in the small window.  Just click "Upload" and it will be placed in your "image" file. 

NOTE:  Be careful about the size of your image files.  They should be saved at less than 100 DPI, and the file size of the enlarged image should be less than 75KB.  Small images should be only a few KB. To optimize images, use your image program or go to the IMAGE INFORMATION page for free online optimization programs.
