    - Elements can be cut/copied from one page to another
    - Multiple elements can be cut/copied and stored to paste

  • Shift

    Using the shift key and arrow keys in combination will move any selected element 25px in your intended direction.

  • Footer

    To add content to the footer section it must first be set to ‘show on all pages’.

Anchor Links

To anchor link to a section in WSBv7 you must link to the element ID of your desired content using the full url and id name. (e.g. https://www.mywsb7url.com/pagename.html# wsb-element-123456789-123456-1234-12345678910)

To find the element id Inspect the area in question using your browsers built in inspector. Highlight the element and copy the wsb-element ID.

Troubleshooting

Reset the CSS (jiggle it)

When working in v7 you may notice that the design in the builder does not look the same as the design on the live site or that new CSS changes are not taking effect.

A quick troubleshooting step that often resolve this issue is the CSS Jiggle. To perform the Jiggle take the following steps.

  • 1

    Open your WSB v7 and click “Edit Site”

  • 2

    Click into the CSS window, making sure you have the site tab selected.

  • 3

    Once in the window select all CSS, cut, and then paste. (CTRL + A, CTRL + X, CTRL + V)

  • 4

    Now publish your site

These actions will reset the CSS file and force it to update to the current version.

Maps and Forms Positioning

Often you will notice that the published website shows maps and forms in a different position than they appear in the builder.

To fix this, you must use the mouse to position forms and maps. Using the arrow keys, or Shift+arrow key will not display properly on the published site.

Inalterable Buttons

There is a bug that will sometimes prevent the setting menu on a button from opening. There is no known ‘fix’ for this issue, but you can recreate the button. As this will likely be a persistent issue on the site, make sure that you alter all of the settings in your new button before closing your menu.

Broken Forms

You may encounter a form or forms that are missing a submit button, have 2 submit buttons, or have the submit button in the wrong location on the form. Do not waste your time trying to fix this. If you see this issue you must rebuild the from. Likely if you experience this issue on a single page, it will be an issue for any and all forms on the site. Make sure to QA the published site and look for issues with any and all forms.

ATS Portal

You may need to do advanced troubleshooting for the following issues:

  • Elements are causing spacing issues is display on mobile, but are not actually there to delete in the builder (Ghost elements)

  • Accidentally switched from v6 to v7 and need to revert

  • Force lock/unlock PWS design lock

To fix these do the following:

  • 2

    b. ATS > Dream Design Team Lock/Unlock (Manual Locking)
    c. C3 Sup > Downgrade to V6 (Accidental Upgrade to v7)

  • 5

    Make your changes
