FAQs
Answers to frequently asked questions.
How do we use our own domain name?
Rather than using the groups.dcn.org, I'd like to register a domain name for my group and use it to access the web site.
Create e-mail links?
I'd like to create a 'hot' e-mail link for our website http://groups.dcn.org/oursite/ - the kind of email address that automatically starts up an e-mail program. Is this possible using the SimpleSite 2.0 software?
Can I control the web address filename part?
When I create a page, folder or orther content object, the SimpleSite is using the item's title to create the last part of the URL (i.e., the file or folder name part). Can I change this?
How do I cut and paste folders?
I have ten folders I want to place in a single, new folder without going back and creating ten new folders and uploading the contents of each. Is there a way I can "cut and paste" an existing folder (and its contents) into a new folder?
How do I control the default view of the homepage?
I used the display pull-down on my homepage and selected a content item as the default view. Sadly this turned out not to be what I wanted. How do I restore the homepage?
Selective security
Can a site manager set the security level for specific folders created under a site?
How do I add an attachment to a page?
Is it possible to attach a PDF (or presentation or spreadsheet ...) file to a page?
Why are my printouts plain?
Page printouts contain just page content. I want to show off the banner and sidebars.
