Greetings from Karelia Software!

Managing Changes:
Customizing the Site Menu with the Page inspector

Did your New Year come with many plans and ideas? If you’re like us—it certainly hasn’t brought a shorter “to-do” list. If one of the things on your list is updating your Sandvox website, let us offer a little help with customizing your site’s menu.

If you’ve already worked with the Page inspector to Add or Remove pages from your site menu, feel free to skip ahead to the next article in this newsletter. If not, read on to find out how to easily work with the site menu when adding new pages to your website or remove old ones. We’ve built a walk-thru of the steps, with tips you can read and refer to as you work.

New Year, New Skill:
Code Injection vs. Raw HTML Objects

Got an idea for a super slick, new component for your site? Can’t find the “Apply Magic” command? That’s because Sandvox has more than one advanced avenue available for extending its built-in capabilities!

If you’re looking to tackle a little new technology, we’ve got good news and better news for you. Each advanced extension avenue Sandvox offers can be used in a relatively simple way or you could get quite fancy. If you are up for learning something new, you may be able to incorporate advanced capabilities yourself.

To help you get started, we have prepared a nice, easy-to-read piece on using Sandvox’s Code Injection capabilities vs. using Raw HTML Objects. Grab a glass of whatever suits you and dive in to learn more.
