Laura Thomas replied on March 18, 2010 19:59 to the question "Drop down menu" in Yola:

Hi Lara,

You can avoid having too many pages in your main navigation by dividing your site up in to categories and creating sub-pages. Here is a quick overview on how to do this:

1. Create the pages you need. When you create the page untick the "show in navigation" box so that these pages won't be automatically added into your main navigation menu.
2. Now that you have your content, you need to link it all up. You can create the links using the text editor widget.
* drag a text widget onto your page and click to edit it.
* Type the text which you want to be the link to the sub-page.
* Highlight the text, and from the text editor tool bar, click the link button (10th from the left next to the image button).
* Click on the "..." button next to "page". It should give you a list of all the pages you have just created.
* Choose the relevant page and click "OK" and you will have a link to this page.

If you didn't untick the "show in navigation" box and would like to take them out of the navigation, simply click on "Edit Navigation" and drag-and-drop the pages you don't want in the navigation into the panel on the right hand side. Do the opposite to include them in the navigation again.

For detailed instructions and a working example, please click on the following link: Creating Subpages.

Hi Keith,

I can remove the thread for you and you can choose to repost it, or not. Alternately you can append this thread with the correct link in the comments. Totally your call, but unfortunately there's no way to edit topics on Get Satisfaction at this time.

Laura Thomas replied on March 17, 2010 21:59 to the question "How to print pages WITH my banner" in Yola:

Hi Keith,

I suggest grabbing screenshots of your pages for the best print results. You can Google for instructions if you are unsure how best to do full page captures in your OS and browser as it varies based on your platform.

Hi Tracy,

I just sent you an email that I hope answers your questions, if it does not I will be happy to work with you further via email in an attempt to protect your personal information. – Laura Thomas, on March 16, 2010 22:51

Hi Tracy,

I removed your post as this is a public forum and you do not want to share private login details here.

I understand this is frustrating for you but I assure you we can get this settled by working together. What you are reporting is accurate as both of your domains are currently published to the same site. If you wish to direct one of the domains to another site we can help you with that. Is the second site you wish to point your domain to already built? If so, we simply need to unassign the domain you do not want pointing to your current site and then publish that domain to your new site. If you would like me to do this for you I'd be happy to.

I will email you direct to confirm the actions you would like me to take.

Hi Tracy,

I see both of your domains under your account, please see screenshot attached. Can you please clarify what you are trying to edit so I can assist you further?

Glad you got the look you wanted Keara!

For other users who may see this though, I just wanted to add that you can also hit the Shift-Enter keys together (Firefox and Internet Explorer) or Ctrl-Enter (Safari) when you want to go to the next single line.
