You can also manage your site locally and then put the site up to the server or work directly from the server. The easy to use file handling makes moving files such as images onto individual pages or working between the server files and local files easy and very fast. This side menu and file tree also has every page on your site for you to quickly and easily find and work with files or pages.
Creating a backup of your site so you can work with a copy can be easily and quickly done from the manage site drop down menu as well as other site management functions like saving settings for your site, importing saved settings and duplicating the site to create a copy.
This settings and site duplication makes creating and working with a copy of your site easy so you always have a backup if you make changes on your site and want to go back to the previous setup. This is especially handy when first learning how to use the program as I can certainly tell you. A few times now I have changed things that have ruined the site so using the backup and just getting rid of the current working files was easier than trying to figure out what I did wrong and correcting it on so many pages.
Besides easy site management things like adding links to pictures or changing each particular setting of a picture, area of a page or the whole page can be easily done with the elements and styles window or the popup windows that show up under the working page of your site. Whenever you click on an area or object in your page the attributes that you can change for each area like fonts, borders and colors are available from two areas of the program.
Adding links to pages or items is as easy as clicking on the folder and finding the page or item you want to link to so linking pages and images site wide is simple. Once you have changed things the program automatically asks you if you want to make changes site wide or just locally. Once you have checked the site you can also check for errors using the site management tools.
