To make best use of the Site Editor you should get into the habit straight away of moving around its different screens using the buttons and icons displayed, not using the forward or back buttons of your Internet browser.

If you don't, you may find that your work does not get saved.
 
Note: If you do nothing within the Site Editor for half an hour or your Internet connection is lost in this time then you will automatically be logged out.

The following options may be displayed in your window, depending on your site privileges.

Portal Administration - Only available to portal administrators. This menu item allows the creation and removal of entire sites and new page templates.

Site Administration - Only available to users with Site Administrator privileges. This menu item is used to make changes to current site details.

User Administration - Only available to non-free-trial accounts. If you have a Site Administrator or higher privilege level, this menu item will enable you to add and edit other user accounts. Otherwise, this will only allow you to edit your own details.

Edit Page Contents - This will take you to the Page Listing screen where you will be able to create and edit pages on your site.

E-Commerce - On those sites that have it enabled, this menu item allows modification of the settings of the E-Commerce (online shop) system.

Forums - A discussion forum allows people to converse online by posting messages to a web page. Generally, it is a good idea to have one forum per topic of conversation; this stops the discussion getting too fragmented and confusing.

Support - If this menu item is available, click it if you are having any problems.

Databases - On those sites that have it enabled, this menu item allows data sources to be created and edited.

Mailing Lists - On those sites that have it enabled, this menu item allows mailing lists to be created and managed.
