Someone else, who has his own user for the Content Management System, did receive the mail. Why does it happen, and how can I setup a default mail address for updates?

    A: You can set different keywords for different pages in the "Site Setup" tab in the CMS.

    Q: Beneath the vertical navigation bar there is a picture, can I change it for every page?

    A:  No, this is not possible. Whatever you put in the vertical navigation bar is universal and appears on every page. However, the opposite bar is stand alone and can be different for every page.

    Q: How can I create larger spaces between items on the sidebar? If I put a white picture as a space I still see a blue separator that I don’t want.

    A: In order to create a “clean” space between items you can use the “Space” item that you can drag to the desired places. If you want to have more space, drag more “Space” items until you get the desired space.

    Q: Why can’t I align the text?
    A: Items are set to start from the same spot. However, some items have spaces from the sides that can’t be undone. This is why the text cannot be aligned.

    Q: I have created an external link but the text did not move.

    A: If you highlight the link you created in the editor, you can choose where to locate it.

    Q: How can I know which font will be used in my website?
    A: The default font for the system is Arial, sized 11. The font cannot be changed, for SEO reasons. But the size can be altered. If you still want to use different fonts, you can do it by pasting from an external editor, such as Word.

    Q: There is a grey background around the pictures. Can I delete it or change it to white??

    A: The grey background is used whenever the picture is not in the right size. The right ratio for pictures in the system is 2:3 (only in the gallery it is 3:4). If you put pictures in these proportions, there will be no background. Whenever the pictures are smaller there will be a background.

    On some skins, such as 7 or 8, there is no grey background. The picture will get the background of the skin, with a delicate frame.
