Components of the Dashboard
The left panel displays the DBA name and link to "View Website." Selecting View Website opens the live website on a new tab.
To return to Lighthouse, select Back to Lighthouse at the bottom of the left panel.
When entering the Website Manager, you automatically land on the Dashboard. Three themes are offered. The website status is reflected in the top right corner of the thumbnail. When the website is originally set up, the status of the website is 'Not published.' When the website is offline, the status is 'Not Live.'
In this part of the Dashboard, you'll find:
- The DBA Name
- The current theme selection.
- The URL of the website and selecting the icon to the right of it opens the live website in a new tab.
- The "Edit Website" button opens the website inside the Editor.
Website Visibility
The toggle for Website Visibility switches the website status between offline and online.
When the website is initially set up, this feature is greyed out and is unavailable. The website needs to be published for the first time from inside the editor. In this current state, the website is offline.
Once published, you can control the website visibility using this toggle. Different messages are shown for each status of the site.
Status | Message |
The website visibility is being turned offline | |
The website is in offline mode | |
The website visibility is being turned on (offline to online) |
The tool tip (the "i" icon) explains the functionality.
Website Analytics
Currently not functional, but Coming Soon!
Settings
The Settings page shows the domain of the website. When the website is initially set up, it will have s4shops.com as part of the domain. You can request to connect to an existing domain or register for a new domain.
