Website content and the order of sections

What it is

The Content & design screen in the website administration. It has four tabs:

TabWhat it is for
Text & mediaLogo, name, main photo, About us text, services
ServicesQuick editing of the list of extra services
Appearance (theme)Template, colors, fonts, shapes - see Website appearance
Homepage sectionsOrder and switching sections on

Why you need it

This is the text and the photos a guest sees first. It is what decides whether they click Book.

How to set the logo and the name

  1. In the left menu open Content & design.
  2. Stay on the Text & media tab.
  3. In the logo and name block click the logo field, drag an image into it, or hover over it and press Ctrl+V (pastes an image from the clipboard). A PNG or WebP with a transparent background looks best (SVG is not supported).
  4. Fill in the property name.
  5. Save.

The logo is saved right after the upload - you see its preview and a message that it is uploaded. It appears in the website header, in reservations and in confirmation e-mails.

If you have both a dark and a light version of the logo, upload both - Light logo and Dark logo. The website will use the right one depending on the background.

How to set the main photo (hero)

  1. In the hero section block upload the hero photo - by clicking, by dragging the file into the field, or with Ctrl+V while the mouse is over the field. The recommended size is at least 1920 x 1080 px, in JPG, PNG or WebP format. The photo is saved right away and you see its preview in the field.
  2. Fill in the subtitle below the name - one short sentence that captures your place.
  3. Save.

Video instead of a photo

Instead of a photo you can have a video in the background. You upload it in the same block (mp4 or webm, up to 50 MB), or you paste a link to a video hosted elsewhere.

Two things people forget:

  • The video counts towards your photo storage. See Add-ons and limits.
  • The video only appears once you select the Video hero variant on the Appearance (theme) tab. Until you do, the system warns you about it.

The hero photo is used as a preview while the video loads - so upload it anyway.

How to write the About us text

  1. In the About us block fill in the section heading (by default "About us").
  2. Write your text in the text field. Four paragraphs at most. You have bold, italics and lists available.
  3. In the highlighted benefits part add short points that appear as labels - for example "Free parking" or "Breakfast included".
  4. Save.

How to add services

Services are the extra things you offer - access to the bar, bicycle hire, a sauna.

  1. Open the Services tab (or the Services block on the Text & media tab).
  2. Click Add service.
  3. Fill in the name and optionally a short description.
  4. Optionally add a photo with the add or replace photo button.
  5. Use Move up and Move down to arrange the order.
  6. Save.

Remove a service with the bin icon. You are asked to confirm first; the change takes effect after you save.

The Services section appears on the website only once you add at least one service. Until then it is marked as hidden in Homepage sections.

How to change the order of sections

  1. Open the Homepage sections tab.
  2. Drag a row to change the order of the sections on the website.
  3. Use the switch to turn a section on or hide it.
  4. Save.

The sections you have available:

ContactMap, form and details

A section with no content

You can switch on Gallery, Reviews, Surroundings, FAQ, News and the Restaurant, Wellness and Events sections even when there is nothing in them yet. Guests then see a short sentence instead of content, for example "No reviews here yet". Until you switch such a section on yourself, an empty section stays hidden.

For an empty section the system tells you what to add and links you straight there:

  • Gallery - upload photos.
  • Reviews - approve a review and mark it as featured.
  • Surroundings - add a tip.
  • FAQ - add a question.
  • News - publish the article. A draft is not shown on the website.
  • Restaurant, Wellness, Events - fill in a description, a menu, venues or photos.

Services cannot be switched on until you add at least one service. Sections your plan does not include are locked with the note "Available on a higher plan".

Common problems

I uploaded a photo and nothing changed. The logo and the hero photo are saved right after the upload and a confirmation appears below the field. Other changes (texts, services) have to be saved - the bottom bar reports unsaved changes.

The video does not play on the website. On the Appearance (theme) tab you have to select the Video hero variant. Without that the photo is used.

I cannot upload another photo. Your photo storage is full. Delete old ones or move to a higher plan.

I do not have the Surroundings, FAQ and News sections. They are part of the Standard plan and above.
