Please select the designated website where you want to add your "Site settings" page.
Step 3
Now you can see on the navigation menu with three tabs: "Edit website" , "New page", "Pages". For this tutorial click the "New page" tab.

- "Parent page" - Choose if this page is the child of another page or on the root.

- "Password required" - This option allows you to protect this page from beeing accesed by not registered users.
Step 5 - adding the page content
Now that you created your "Site settings" page, you still need to add some content to your page.
To fill the template we need to fill some content:
SEO - Search Engine Optimization
• Page title
This is the name that will be added to the tabs in your browser(By default this is the same as the menu title).This will also be the name that will be provided for google.
When the character count turn red your page title is too long for beeing optimized.
• Description
Give your content a good description that people will see at the searchengines.
• Keywords
If your site is in english you can click the "Generate Meta keywords", and we will use google to come up with the keywords you should use. In other languages just add keywords describing the content devided by ","
• Route
You can write the path you want for the page, i.e. News or Internal/news.
