Website Styles

In this article

The styles page allows you to change and customize some of the "look and feel" aspects of your website. In this article, we will cover how to modify the font, header and footer as well as generalized styes on your website. In order to modify the styles on your website, you are required to have the Site Administrator or Site Webmaster role. You can access this section, when logged in, by mousing-over your name at the top right and selecting "Styles" from the dropdown menu.

Website Menu

You can choose between 2 versions of the menu, version 1 is the standard unfolding dropdown menu and if you have a second level, it will pop out to the side of the menu.

Version 1

Version 2 will allow you to have what is known as a "mega menu", which is essentially a horizontal box that covers the full width of your menu and will expend both sub-menu levels if you have them. This menu style is recommended only if your website has a lot of pages, otherwise it will appear mostly empty.

Sticky Website Header

You also have the option to set your header and menu to be "sticky" with the "Sticky Website Header" option, which will make the header of the website, including the menu, stick to the top when someone scrolls down the page, keeping the header always visible.

Website Header Format

This section allows you to change between the two types of format for your website header as well as toggle some of the configuration that we will explain below.

You may choose between the 2 versions, however you will not see much difference if you do not enable the "Additional social media bar".

Additionnal Options

If you check the "Additional social media bar at the top", you will see on version 1, the purple bar shown above be displayed on your website. You will also see a color picker appear which will allow you to set the background color of that bar. By default, it is the PMI purple color, but you may choose between the other branding colors. For version 2, the social media icons are shown above the "Become a Member" button, but there is no color option.

Lastly, you may choose how you would like to see the menu aligned. By default, the menu items are aligned on the right, but you can change this to the left or the center with the alignment options.

Button Styles Format

You may choose between 3 versions of button styles. When changing the button version, this will apply it to all the buttons on your website. Please note that on some components, you do have the option to change the button color, but this layout option is only for the formatting of the button's box.

Version 2

This version is the standard login page, you do not need to modify anything in this page for it to work and display the proper information. However, you can go to the login page as an administrator (simply type /login after your domain name in the URL of your website) and from there you can double click on any of the text to modify it.
