WebsiteBuilder: Adding and Deleting Pages
The number of web pages a website has depends on its nature and its content. You can add as many web pages as you like. You can also remove unnecessary pages if needed. If you need assistance with these processes, read through the steps below:
NOTE: We offer two different versions of WebsiteBuilder. Our original implementation of the builder is the Legacy WebsiteBuilder Editor, while WebsiteBuilder Express Editor is the newest interface commonly found in the Foundation dashboard. It is not possible to upgrade a Legacy WebsiteBuilder site to the Express Editor. The site will need to be recreated with the Express Editor. All new WebsiteBuilder installations will be the Express Editor.
In this article, we have provided two sets of instructions for each editor. Follow the instruction set that matches your WebsiteBuilder version.
