Selecting a Template for Your Future Website
XRipe enables you to select your favorite template from the Template Gallery.
1 If you are logged in, then in your dashboard, click the Add New Website button at the bottom of the page. You'll be taken to the template library page. If you are not logged or not yet registered in the system, then go straight to template library page.
2 Browse through the template gallery list and select the one that suits you best. Hover your mouse cursor over the template thumbnail, scroll down and click Preview to see the look and feel of the template in a new browser window or tab. Close the window tab and click Use This to start building your website with the template.
Most of the templates include About Us, Our Services, FAQ and other blocks/sections you are likely to need. Much later in the Constructor, you can delete sections you don't need or add sections you need, but are not present in the current template you've selected. Alternatively you can start with a blank page template, by selecting the template without a thumbnail - that's the very first template (Template #1). If you should start with a blank template, then you can use XRipe constructor's AGGREGATOR to import and construct the various blocks of your website.
