Adding Content to Your Site
There's two kinds of content in a Webvanta site:
- Static content, which is placed directly on a page
- Dynamic content, which is stored in the database and inserted on a page
To edit static content, just click the Enable Editing button in to toolbar, hover over the region you want to edit, and click on the gear.
To add database-driven content, you need to add content to the database. The details vary depending on what SmartTheme you have started with and what kind of content you are adding. In any case, you'll find links to all the content types in the Content menu in the control panel.
Styling Your Site
You have complete access to all of the code that creates your site.
The HTML is created by the pages (see Structure > Pages in the control panel) and templates (see Structure > Templates).
The styling comes from CSS files (see Structure > CSS Files in the control panel).
The stylesheets are linked from the head section of the templates, which is generally stored in a snippet called "html_head" (see Structure > Snippets).
