Is this an ongoing or one time fee?
On going. You pay for the number of months you wish to use the software.  The best part is if you want to udpate your page often you can buy a package of more time, if you don't think you will update it frequently you can just pay for each month as you need it.

No. This is software that is installed on your website server.
Do you have to install it or can I?
No. You can do your own installation if you would like.  If you are not sure how to install it we do offer the installation for $25.  The installation is a one time fee and unless you delete the files it remains on your server.
If I create a splash page and then let me subscription laspse will my page go away?
No. As long as you keep the software installed your page will work. You just will not be able to edit your page without a current subscription.

How do I preview if I do not have an iphone?

We have detailed instructions on our user guide page.

 

I cannot see my changes in preview or published page! Why?

Because you need to refresh the browser, to force it reloads everything from server instead loading from cache.

How Do I direct users to my mobile website?
You will need to add the following code to your splash  page or the  main page of your website. IF you can not edit these then you will not be able to use the automatic redirect to send mobile users to your website.

 

My Images are too big for the screen? 

You need to either resize your images before you import them. You can do this two ways.

1. Size them to 320 pixels wide by 416 pixels tall at 163DPI for I Phones

    Size to 768 pixels wide by 936 pixels tall at 123 DPI for I Pads

2. Use the editor to resize the images on import. The default is 900x600 pixels and you must change the size PRIOR to importing the images.

 

Can I link to another site using the Menu Tabs?
Yes you can make a menu tab be a link to any other site. Just remember that some sites are not visable on smart phones, this includes blogs with flash headers.

 

My site loads slowly what can I do?
There are two things you can do if your site is loading slowly.

You can:

a. resize your images prior to importing them for file size, this means you crop them to the size you want then save using save for web and devices, making sure your overall file size is as low as you can get it and still have your iamges look great.

b.You can select the option on the page that says this is an image heavey page, so your phone knows that there are lots of graphics to load.
