Selecting a Style for your Site

Site Builder provides site styles (or templates) that you can use to create the layout of your site. The styles include pre-defined designs, colors, and headers that you can modify so the site better reflects your firm's image.

To select a style for your site, do the following:

1. Log in to your Site Builder account.
2. Click Select Site Style on the menu bar. The top of the page displays a preview of the selected site styles. As you select options, this image will update to reflect your selections.
3. Select options on each of the following tabs to modify your site style.
   • Styles. This tab displays thumbnail previews of the available styles. Styles control the layout of your site. Click a thumbnail to apply that style to your site. After selecting a style, use the color swatch at the top of the tab to select the color palette for the site. Most, but not all, layouts have three color schemes to choose from.

     Notes:  

     •  If needed, you can filter the style list by selecting one of the following options beneath the thumbnails:
       • All Styles. Displays all the available styles for the site.
       • Favorites. Displays only the styles that you have identified as favorites. To identify a style as a favorite, click the heart icon  on its thumbnail.
       • Featured. Displays only the styles that are mobile-responsive. If you use a mobile-responsive style, your website layout will adjust automatically to accommodate different screen sizes.
     • If you select a non-responsive site style, you can still accommodate mobile devices by selecting the Enable mobile site check box. Selecting this box creates a simple mobile site that will display when visitors view your site on a mobile device. If this check box is not available, then the style you have selected is already mobile-responsive.
   • Headers. Select a stock image that will display at the top of your site.

     Note: You also have the option of using a custom image in the header. If you previously selected a custom image for your header, you cannot revert to a Site Builder-provided header until you delete your custom header. See Adding or Updating Your Site Branding Information for more information.

   • Navigation. Select the style of navigation buttons to use on your site. Most, but not all, templates have three styles to choose from.
4. Click Preview to see what your site will look like when your changes are applied. The preview opens in a different browser tab or window.
5. Click Publish to immediately update your website, or click Next to continue to the next page.

Note: Changes you make in Site Builder are not applied to your website until you publish the updates.
