Jamstack is an simpler architecture designed to make the web faster, more secure, and easier to scale. The core principles of pre-rendering and decoupling enable sites and applications to be delivered with greater confidence and resilience than ever before.</p> <p>Here are the main benefits provided by the Jamstack.</p> <h4>Faster performance</h4> <p>Serve pre-built markup and assets over a Content Delivery Network.</p> <h4>More secure</h4> <p>No need to worry about server or database vulnerabilities.</p> <h4>Scalability</h4> <p>If your website suddenly goes viral and has many active users, the CDN seamlessly compensates.</p> <h2 id="logging-in">Logging in<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#logging-in">#</a></h2> <ol> <li>Navigate to <a href="https://www.atozmachine.com/admin/#/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="external">https://www.atozmachine.com/admin/#/</a></li> <li>Click <strong><em>Login with Netlify Identity</em></strong></li> <li>Enter your email and password and click <strong><em>Log in</em></strong></li> </ol> <h3 id="trouble-logging-in">Trouble Logging in?<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#trouble-logging-in">#</a></h3> <ol> <li>Click <strong><em>Login with Netlify Identity</em></strong></li> <li>Click <strong><em>Forgot password?</em></strong> at the bottom of the Log in form</li> <li>Enter the email address your account was set up with and click <strong><em>Send recovery email</em></strong></li> <li>Check your email and follow the steps to update your password</li> </ol> <h2 id="admin-dashboard-overview">Admin Dashboard Overview<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#admin-dashboard-overview">#</a></h2> <p>Your website uses Netlify CMS for a back-end Content Management System. Unlike older CMS' Netlify CMS focuses on only the items you need and cuts out everything unnecessary. Your content is stored and can be found in Collections.</p> <h3 id="collections">Collections<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#collections">#</a></h3> <p>Collections are the groupings of editable content for your website. This website consists of Data, Posts, Equipment and Pages.</p> <h2 id="managing-content">Managing Content<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#managing-content">#</a></h2> <h3 id="editing-basic-business-information">Editing Basic Business Information<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#editing-basic-business-information">#</a></h3> <p>To edit content such as business name, phone number and hours:</p> <ol> <li>Navigate to Data &gt; Business Info.</li> <li>Here you'll find options to edit business name, phone number, email address, address and hours. Make your desired change as needed and click <strong><em>Publish</em></strong> in the top left corner when you're ready to save and publish your change.</li> </ol> <h3 id="editing-pages">Editing Pages<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#editing-pages">#</a></h3> <ol> <li>Click on <strong><em>Pages</em></strong> in the Collections menu. Here you'll see a list of all your website's pages.</li> <li>Click on the page that you need to edit. Pages are broken out into three core sections, Page Title, SEO and Page Content. <ol> <li>Page Title. This is your page's primary title.</li> <li>SEO. SEO contains your SEO Title, Description and Featured Image. The SEO Title is the page title that gets used by search engines, not a front-facing page title. Description is the meta description that gets used by search engines. Featured Image is an image that you can select that will be used as a featured image for social sharing. Note: this image doesn't actually get used on your website, only as a preview image when the website gets shared on social media.</li> <li>Page Content. While this isn't necessarily labeled as such, the remaining fields are all your actual page content. Content is structured in the same order it is displayed on your page.</li> </ol> </li> <li>When ready to publish, simply click the <strong><em>Publish</em></strong> button in the top right corner.</li> </ol> <h3 id="adding-new-hero-images">Adding New Hero Images<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#adding-new-hero-images">#</a></h3> <p>The hero images for all pages need to be sized at 2500x1000. These images are then automatically scaled, resized for smaller devices, and transformed to serve modern image formats. Always upload images as .jpg images. Using .png images will break resizing and transformation functions.</p> <h3 id="adding-gallery-images">Adding Gallery Images<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#adding-gallery-images">#</a></h3> <p>The product galleries can be found on both the CNC Machining and Fabrication pages. Navigate down to the Parts Gallery section, here you will find a list of all your gallery images. Click open the accordion-style box to open the image options. Here you will find, an Image Small, Image Alt Text, and Image Large. Image Small is the preview or thumbnail image. Image alt text is alternative text or a description of your image that will be used by screen readers. Image Large is your full-size image that gets opened in the lightbox if an image is clicked.</p> <p>Gallery images need to be cropped to a square size to fit their given space, other image sizes will be stretched to fit the space. The Image Small version uses a 600 x 600 image, and the Image Large uses a 1600 x 1600 version of the image.</p> <div class="warning"> <div class="warning__svg-wrapper"> <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 512 512"><title>ionicons-v5-r</title><path d="M85.57,446.25H426.43a32,32,0,0,0,28.17-47.17L284.18,82.58c-12.09-22.44-44.27-22.44-56.36,0L57.4,399.08A32,32,0,0,0,85.57,446.25Z" style="fill:none;stroke-linecap:round;stroke-linejoin:round;stroke-width:32px"></path><path d="M250.26,195.39l5.74,122,5.73-121.95a5.74,5.74,0,0,0-5.79-6h0A5.74,5.74,0,0,0,250.26,195.39Z" style="fill:none;stroke-linecap:round;stroke-linejoin:round;stroke-width:32px"></path><path d="M256,397.25a20,20,0,1,1,20-20A20,20,0,0,1,256,397.25Z"></path></svg> </div> <h4>Important!</h4> <p>You will never need to upload a full resolution image to your website.

If you are using an image editor like Photoshop, you will have image options when you save. Save as the lowest quality you can before your image starts to look bad (usually 80% quality). When done right, it’s rare that the loss of image quality will be noticeable to an untrained eye.</p> <p>After you save your image, the front end of the website will automatically optimize and transform your image into a more modern and performant image. This ensures your images are loading as fast as possible. You should always shoot for under 200kb file size for all images you load to the website.</p> </div> <h3 id="adding-new-blog-posts">Adding New Blog Posts<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#adding-new-blog-posts">#</a></h3> <ol> <li>Click on <strong><em>Post</em></strong> in the Collections menu and then click <strong><em>New Post</em></strong>.

This will be the main body that holds all the content of your new post.</li> <li>Select your post's Publish Date. Typically it's best practice to set your date to the current date and time of writing. If scheduling posts is a feature requirement for content management, additional functionality will need to be built into the CMS to allow this.</li> <li>Select the category you want your post to be grouped within. Currently the category options are &quot;Articles&quot; and &quot;News&quot;.</li> <li>Write out the main body of your post as needed using the rich text editor. In addition to the rich text editor, shortcodes allow injection of templated code blocks to add a little more power and flexibility to your posts. <a href="#shortcodes">See the Shortcodes section</a> for more detailed information on how to use these.</li> <li>When ready to publish, simply click the <strong><em>Publish</em></strong> button in the top right corner.</li> </ol> <h3 id="adding-new-equipment">Adding New Equipment<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#adding-new-equipment">#</a></h3> <ol> <li>Click on <strong><em>Equipment</em></strong> in the Collections menu and then click <strong><em>New Equipment</em></strong>.

Copy the YouTube video ID that follows v= in the video’s URL and pass it to the YouTube shortcode.</p> <p>{{&lt; youtube BHACKCNDMW8 &gt;}}</p> <p>For accessibility reasons, it’s best to provide a title for your YouTube video. You can do this using the shortcode by providing a title parameter. If no title is provided, a default of “YouTube Video” will be used.</p> <p>{{&lt; youtube id=&quot;BHACKCNDMW8&quot; title=&quot;3 Hours of Amazing Nature Scenery&quot; &gt;}}</p> <h3 id="vimeo-embed-example">Vimeo Embed Example<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#vimeo-embed-example">#</a></h3> <p>Adding a video from Vimeo is equivalent to the YouTube shortcode, simply extract the Vimeo video ID and pass it to the shortcode</p> <p>{{&lt; vimeo 146022717 &gt;}}</p> <p>For accessibility reasons, it’s best to provide a title for your Vimeo video.

Give it a minute to rebuild your website, and then go view your newly published change on the front end of your website.</p> <p><strong><em>Pro Tip:</em></strong> If planning to make multiple changes to your content at the same time, make your easy changes first (an edit to an existing page). While your website rebuilds, you can then tackle your larger change (writing a new blog post).

Outside of video, images are the most resource-intensive form of media that your website will load. Loading full-size images will drastically affect the performance of your website and hurt your SEO as a result.</p> <p>To optimize an image: make sure to only use .jpg image files. .png files save a lot more image data and can easily make an identical image four times the file size of a jpg. If you're using an image editor like photoshop you will have image options when you save. Save as the lowest quality you can before your image starts to look bad. When done right, it’s rare that the loss of image quality will be noticeable to an untrained eye. For the majority of images, you should shoot for around 100kb file size for images you upload to the website.</p> </div> <h3 id="pages">Pages<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#pages">#</a></h3> <p>This is where you will find your website's primary pages.</p> <h3 id="plugins">Plugins<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#plugins">#</a></h3> <p>Plugins are pieces of third-party software that extend and add to the functionality that already exists in WordPress.

Outside of video, images are the most resource-intensive form of media that your website will load. Loading full-size images will drastically affect the performance of your website and hurt your SEO as a result.</p> <p>To optimize an image: make sure to only use .jpg image files. .png files save a lot more image data and can easily make an identical image four times the file size of a jpg. If you're using an image editor like photoshop you will have image options when you save. Save as the lowest quality you can before your image starts to look bad. When done right, it’s rare that the loss of image quality will be noticeable to an untrained eye. For the majority of images, you should shoot for around 100kb file size for images you upload to the website.</p> </div> <h3 id="forms">Forms<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#forms">#</a></h3> <p>Forms is where you will find your website's contact forms and can edit form settings and view/resend form submissions.

Alt text can provide a small amount of SEO value as search engines use alt text to gather information about your images. Most importantly, image alt text is used by screen readers. Screen readers use alt text to read a description of your image when someone with a visual impairment cannot see the actual image.

If you're unsure how to handle images for the web, please reach out to <a href="https://insightcreative.com/contact/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="external">Insight Creative, Inc.</a> for assistance.</p> <p>To optimize an image: make sure to primarily use .jpg image files. .png files save a lot more image data and can easily make an identical image four times the file size of a .jpg. If you are using an image editor like Photoshop, you will have image options when you save. Save as the lowest quality you can before your image starts to look bad (usually 80% quality). You should almost always shoot for under 300kb file size for all images you load to the website. When done right, it’s rare that the loss of image quality will be noticeable.</p> <p>After you save your image, the front end of the website will automatically optimize and transform your image into a more modern and performant image.

Images are the most resource-intensive form of media that your website will load. Loading full-size images will negatively affect the performance of your website and will hurt your search rankings. If you're unsure how to handle images for the web, please reach out to <a href="https://insightcreative.com/contact/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="external">Insight Creative, Inc.</a> for assistance.</p> <p>To optimize an image: make sure to only use .jpg image files. .png files save a lot more image data and can easily make an identical image four times the file size of a .jpg. Use a tool like <a href="https://squoosh.app/">Squoosh</a>, Photoshop, or similar image editing tool to resize and optimize your images. Save as the lowest quality you can before your image starts to look bad (usually 80% quality). You should almost always shoot for under 300kb file size for all images you load to the website. When done right, it’s rare that the loss of image quality will be noticeable to an untrained eye.</p> <p>After you save your image, the front end of the website will automatically optimize and transform your image into a more modern and performant image. This ensures your images are loading as fast as possible.</p> </div> <h3 id="bulk-saving-of-edits">Bulk Saving of Edits<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#bulk-saving-of-edits">#</a></h3> <p><img src="https://client-training.insightcreative.info/images/milksource-bulk-save-preview.jpg" alt="Milk Source bulk save Preview Screenshot"></p> <p>You can now take advantage of CloudCannon's <a href="https://cloudcannon.com/blog/saving-time-our-new-editor-improvements/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollower">bulk saving of edits</a>.

Images are the most resource-intensive form of media that your site will load. Loading full-size images will drastically affect the performance of your website.</p> <p>To optimize an image: make sure to only use .jpg image files. .png files save a lot more image data and can easily make an identical image four times the file size of a jpg. If you are using an image editor like photoshop you will have image options when you save. Save as the lowest quality you can before your image starts to look bad. When done right, it’s rare that the loss of image quality will be noticeable to an untrained eye.</p> <p>After you save your image drop it into an image optimizer such as <a href="https://tinypng.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="external">https://tinypng.com/</a> This will optimize the image one step further for the web, typically cutting down the file size in half. You should shoot for under 100kb file size for all images you load to the site.</p> </div> <h2 id="editing-basic-store-information">Editing Basic Store Information<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#editing-basic-store-information">#</a></h2> <h3 id="managing-store-info">Managing Store Info<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#managing-store-info">#</a></h3> <ol> <li>Navigate to Appearance &gt; Customize &gt; Site Identity.</li> <li>Here you can edit your logo, site name, business address, phone, email, and business hours.</li> <li>While in the customizer, you will see your website dynamically update with your changes.

Jamstack is an simpler architecture designed to make the web faster, more secure, and easier to scale. The core principles of pre-rendering and decoupling enable sites and applications to be delivered with greater confidence and resilience than ever before.</p> <p>Here are the main benefits provided by the Jamstack.</p> <h4>Faster performance</h4> <p>Serve pre-built markup and assets over a Content Delivery Network.</p> <h4>More secure</h4> <p>No need to worry about server or database vulnerabilities.</p> <h4>Scalability</h4> <p>If your website suddenly goes viral and has many active users, the CDN seamlessly compensates.</p> <h2 id="logging-in">Logging in<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#logging-in">#</a></h2> <ol> <li>Navigate to <a href="https://www.atozmachine.com/admin/#/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="external">https://www.atozmachine.com/admin/#/</a></li> <li>Click <strong><em>Login with Netlify Identity</em></strong></li> <li>Enter your email and password and click <strong><em>Log in</em></strong></li> </ol> <h3 id="trouble-logging-in">Trouble Logging in?<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#trouble-logging-in">#</a></h3> <ol> <li>Click <strong><em>Login with Netlify Identity</em></strong></li> <li>Click <strong><em>Forgot password?</em></strong> at the bottom of the Log in form</li> <li>Enter the email address your account was set up with and click <strong><em>Send recovery email</em></strong></li> <li>Check your email and follow the steps to update your password</li> </ol> <h2 id="admin-dashboard-overview">Admin Dashboard Overview<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#admin-dashboard-overview">#</a></h2> <p>Your website uses Netlify CMS for a back-end Content Management System. Unlike older CMS' Netlify CMS focuses on only the items you need and cuts out everything unnecessary. Your content is stored and can be found in Collections.</p> <h3 id="collections">Collections<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#collections">#</a></h3> <p>Collections are the groupings of editable content for your website. This website consists of Data, Posts, Equipment and Pages.</p> <h2 id="managing-content">Managing Content<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#managing-content">#</a></h2> <h3 id="editing-basic-business-information">Editing Basic Business Information<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#editing-basic-business-information">#</a></h3> <p>To edit content such as business name, phone number and hours:</p> <ol> <li>Navigate to Data &gt; Business Info.</li> <li>Here you'll find options to edit business name, phone number, email address, address and hours. Make your desired change as needed and click <strong><em>Publish</em></strong> in the top left corner when you're ready to save and publish your change.</li> </ol> <h3 id="editing-pages">Editing Pages<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#editing-pages">#</a></h3> <ol> <li>Click on <strong><em>Pages</em></strong> in the Collections menu. Here you'll see a list of all your website's pages.</li> <li>Click on the page that you need to edit. Pages are broken out into three core sections, Page Title, SEO and Page Content. <ol> <li>Page Title. This is your page's primary title.</li> <li>SEO. SEO contains your SEO Title, Description and Featured Image. The SEO Title is the page title that gets used by search engines, not a front-facing page title. Description is the meta description that gets used by search engines. Featured Image is an image that you can select that will be used as a featured image for social sharing. Note: this image doesn't actually get used on your website, only as a preview image when the website gets shared on social media.</li> <li>Page Content. While this isn't necessarily labeled as such, the remaining fields are all your actual page content. Content is structured in the same order it is displayed on your page.</li> </ol> </li> <li>When ready to publish, simply click the <strong><em>Publish</em></strong> button in the top right corner.</li> </ol> <h3 id="adding-new-hero-images">Adding New Hero Images<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#adding-new-hero-images">#</a></h3> <p>The hero images for all pages need to be sized at 2500x1000. These images are then automatically scaled, resized for smaller devices, and transformed to serve modern image formats. Always upload images as .jpg images. Using .png images will break resizing and transformation functions.</p> <h3 id="adding-gallery-images">Adding Gallery Images<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#adding-gallery-images">#</a></h3> <p>The product galleries can be found on both the CNC Machining and Fabrication pages. Navigate down to the Parts Gallery section, here you will find a list of all your gallery images. Click open the accordion-style box to open the image options. Here you will find, an Image Small, Image Alt Text, and Image Large. Image Small is the preview or thumbnail image. Image alt text is alternative text or a description of your image that will be used by screen readers. Image Large is your full-size image that gets opened in the lightbox if an image is clicked.</p> <p>Gallery images need to be cropped to a square size to fit their given space, other image sizes will be stretched to fit the space. The Image Small version uses a 600 x 600 image, and the Image Large uses a 1600 x 1600 version of the image.</p> <div class="warning"> <div class="warning__svg-wrapper"> <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 512 512"><title>ionicons-v5-r</title><path d="M85.57,446.25H426.43a32,32,0,0,0,28.17-47.17L284.18,82.58c-12.09-22.44-44.27-22.44-56.36,0L57.4,399.08A32,32,0,0,0,85.57,446.25Z" style="fill:none;stroke-linecap:round;stroke-linejoin:round;stroke-width:32px"></path><path d="M250.26,195.39l5.74,122,5.73-121.95a5.74,5.74,0,0,0-5.79-6h0A5.74,5.74,0,0,0,250.26,195.39Z" style="fill:none;stroke-linecap:round;stroke-linejoin:round;stroke-width:32px"></path><path d="M256,397.25a20,20,0,1,1,20-20A20,20,0,0,1,256,397.25Z"></path></svg> </div> <h4>Important!</h4> <p>You will never need to upload a full resolution image to your website.

You can do this using the shortcode by providing a title parameter.

Give it a minute to rebuild your website, and then go view your newly published change on the front end of your website.</p> <p><strong><em>Pro Tip:</em></strong> If planning to make multiple changes to your content at the same time, make your easy changes first (an edit to an existing page). While your website rebuilds, you can then tackle your larger change (writing a new blog post). This leads to an editing process that still feels productive and reduces waiting times.</p> </content>

If you're unsure how to handle images for the web, please reach out to <a href="https://insightcreative.com/contact/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="external">Insight Creative, Inc.</a> for assistance.</p> <p>To optimize an image: make sure to only use .jpg image files. .png files save a lot more image data and can easily make an identical image four times the file size of a .jpg. If you are using an image editor like Photoshop, you will have image options when you save. Save as the lowest quality you can before your image starts to look bad (usually 80% quality). You should always shoot for under 200kb file size for all images you load to the website. When done right, it’s rare that the loss of image quality will be noticeable to an untrained eye.</p> <p>After you save your image, the front end of the website will automatically optimize and transform your image into a more modern and performant image.

At the time of the website launch, your site is loading at around 800ms*.</p> <p>After editing a page's content, sit back, and enjoy some coffee. Give it a minute to rebuild your website and then go view your newly published change on the front end of your website. Builds typically take about 20 seconds, on average.</p> <p>* Performance metrics are measured without added software like HubSpot's live chat and meeting calendar. Third-party software adds load time that is out of our control.</p> </content>

When done click &quot;Publish&quot; in the top left corner.</li> </ol> <h2 id="adding-and-managing-media">Adding and Managing Media<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#adding-and-managing-media">#</a></h2> <ol> <li>Navigate to Media. Here you will see all assets in your media library. By default, WordPress doesn't allow grouping or organizing of images into folders. We use the free FileBird Lite plugin to add this functionality. On the left-hand side, you will find all the image folders that were created to help organize images.</li> <li>To add new media from directly within the media library, first, click on the folder that you want to add your image.</li> <li>Next, click &quot;Add New&quot; and then either drag and drop files from your computer, or click &quot;Select Files&quot; to upload an image.</li> <li>Lastly, add alternative text to your image. Alt text can provide a small amount of SEO value as search engines use alt text to gather information about your images. Most importantly, image alt text is used by screen readers. Screen readers use alt text to read a description of your image when someone with a visual impairment cannot see the actual image. Write alt text exactly like you're describing the image to someone who cannot see it.</li> </ol> <h2 id="managing-forms">Managing Forms<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#managing-forms">#</a></h2> <ol> <li>Navigate to Forms.</li> <li>If for some reason you ever need to edit a form, simply click on the form title.</li> <li>Edit existing fields or add new fields as you require then click &quot;Save Form&quot; in the top right corner.</li> </ol> <h2 id="adding-and-managing-pages">Adding and Managing Pages<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#adding-and-managing-pages">#</a></h2> <ol> <li>Navigate to Pages. Here you will see a list of all your website's pages. Select the page you are looking for by either clicking the page title or by hovering and clicking &quot;Edit&quot; in the options that appear. To quickly find pages, use the search option in the top right corner of the page.</li> <li>Your website uses the default <a href="https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer" class="external">WordPress editor</a> to build and manage all page content and layouts. Make sure to walk through their tour as you get started with the editor.</li> <li>The Gutenberg editor gives you a preview of your blocks that is fairly close to the front-end styling of the block. To edit a block, click anywhere on the block. This will toggle open the available fields that are contained within the block.</li> <li>After you have made your edits, you can click out of the block and it will revert back to the preview state. When ready to publish your changes to the front end of the website, click &quot;Update&quot; in the top right corner.</li> </ol> <h3 id="creating-custom-hero-blocks">Creating Custom Hero Blocks<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#creating-custom-hero-blocks">#</a></h3> <p>Your website has two hero section blocks.

Hero is the general hero section block used throughout most interior pages.</p> <ol> <li>Click the + in the top left of your editor to toggle the block inserter.</li> <li>Select &quot;Hero&quot;.</li> <li>Enter your Hero Title. This Hero Title often feels like a duplicate of the page title, but was created intentionally to allow the flexibility to craft hero titles independent of the page title.</li> <li>Add an optional Hero subheading(body).</li> <li>For extra flexibility, the hero section uses a background image which can be paired with a featured image. <strong>Note:</strong> If no image is selected the image will fallback to the WordPress default field &quot;Featured image&quot;. Be sure to set your Featured Image either way as this also allows it to be used in metadata for search engines and social media websites where your website might be shared. To set your featured image, navigate back to the Page settings in the right-hand sidebar. Click &quot;Set featured image&quot;.</li> <li>Select your image from the media library, or click &quot;Upload files&quot; to add a new image.</li> </ol> <h3 id="creating-button-blocks">Creating Button Blocks<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#creating-button-blocks">#</a></h3> <ol> <li>Click the + in the top left of your editor to toggle the block inserter.</li> <li>Select &quot;Button&quot;</li> <li>Select your link</li> <li>Select a background color. The button block comes configured with two background colors, black or white. Simply check the option that you want to use.</li> </ol> <h3 id="adding-partners-slider-blocks">Adding Partners Slider Blocks<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#adding-partners-slider-blocks">#</a></h3> <ol> <li>Click the + in the top left of your editor to toggle the block inserter.</li> <li>Select &quot;Partners Slider&quot;</li> <li>You will now see a message that this block contains no editable fields.

There are multiple options, Full Width, Careers and Solutions.</li> <li>You will now see a message that this block contains no editable fields. These blocks were built to be more flexible and available to be used globally in the WordPress editor and across all templates. Because of that, these global Call to Action blocks aren't editable in the page editor otherwise you would have to adjust content in multiple places if you made an update. Instead, these can be edited in the global Theme Settings. Update once and your block will update everywhere that it is used.</li> <li>Click open the field &quot;Block: &quot;</li> <li>Enter in your heading, subheading and body</li> <li>Select a link for your button. This should be the primary action your want someone to take.</li> <li>Select a background image</li> <li>When finished click &quot;Update&quot; back in the top right hand corner of your screen</li> </ol> <h3 id="creating-history-blocks">Creating History Blocks<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#creating-history-blocks">#</a></h3> <p>This is a custom block for the history timeline on the about page</p> <ol> <li>Click the + in the top left of your editor to toggle the block inserter.</li> <li>Select &quot;History&quot;</li> <li>Enter in your heading</li> <li>Now you can start editing your timeline.

If you are using an image editor like Photoshop, you will have image options when you save. Save as the lowest quality you can before your image starts to look bad (usually 80% quality). You should almost always shoot for under 300kb file size for all images you load to the website. When done right, it’s rare that the loss of image quality will be noticeable to an untrained eye.</p> <p>After you save your image, the front end of the website will automatically optimize and transform your image into a more modern and performant image.

To make it easy to edit, staff were set with published dates starting on Jan. 1, 2022, and run through Jan. 19, 2022. To add a new employee to the end of the staff list, enter the publish date of Jan. 20, 2022, and then also set the order to 20.

If you're unsure how to handle images for the web, please reach out to <a href="https://insightcreative.com/contact/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="external">Insight Creative, Inc.</a> for assistance.</p> <p>To optimize an image: make sure to only use .jpg image files. .png files save a lot more image data and can easily make an identical image four times the file size of a .jpg. Use a tool like <a href="https://squoosh.app/">Squoosh</a>, Photoshop, or similar image editing tool to resize and optimize your images. Save as the lowest quality you can before your image starts to look bad (usually 80% quality). You should almost always shoot for under 200kb file size for all images you load to the website. When done right, it’s rare that the loss of image quality will be noticeable to an untrained eye.</p> <p>After you save your image, the front end of the website will automatically optimize and transform your image into a more modern and performant image.

Make multiple edits across pages, files, and collections and save them all simultaneously in a single batch. CloudCannon records your edits as you go, allowing you to save them all in one click. This means you only need to wait for your site to build once.</p> </content>

Images are the most resource-intensive form of media that your website will load. Loading full-size images will negatively affect the performance of your website and will hurt your search rankings. If you're unsure how to handle images for the web, please reach out to <a href="https://insightcreative.com/contact/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="external">Insight Creative, Inc.</a> for assistance.</p> <p>To optimize an image: make sure to only use .jpg image files. .png files save a lot more image data and can easily make an identical image four times the file size of a .jpg. If you are using an image editor like Photoshop, you will have image options when you save. Save as the lowest quality you can before your image starts to look bad (usually 80% quality). You should almost always shoot for under 300kb file size for all images you load to the website. When done right, it’s rare that the loss of image quality will be noticeable to an untrained eye.</p> <p>After you save your image, the front end of the website will automatically optimize and transform your image into a more modern and performant image. This ensures your images are loading as fast as possible.</p> </div> <h3 id="bulk-saving-of-edits">Bulk Saving of Edits<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#bulk-saving-of-edits">#</a></h3> <p><img src="https://client-training.insightcreative.info/images/stadium-bike-cloudcannon-bulk-save-preview.jpg" alt="Mind Team bulk save Preview Screenshot"></p> <p>You can now take advantage of CloudCannon's <a href="https://cloudcannon.com/blog/saving-time-our-new-editor-improvements/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollower">bulk saving of edits</a>.

Click “Add Image”, select the brand logo you wish to display with the specific product.</li> <li>Product Categories. Select the categories you wish to group this product.

Some have already been set up for you. Back in your new product, click on the select box of attributes, find the attribute that you want and click “Add”. Next click on the “Values” field, this will open up a list of all the attribute options within that attribute group. Select the attribute that you want to apply. You can add as many attributes as you choose.</li> </ol> <p><em>Tip: A quick way to see all your attributes in an attribute group is to click the “Select All” button under the values field.

To set your attributes click on the “Attributes” tab and set your attributes as you did for simple products.</li> <li>Make sure to check the checkbox “used for variations”</li> <li>Next go to the “Variations” tab. Here you can choose “Add variation” or “create variations from all attributes”.

Images are the most resource-intensive form of media that your website will load. Loading full-size images will negatively affect the performance of your website and will hurt your search rankings. If you're unsure how to handle images for the web, please reach out to <a href="https://insightcreative.com/contact/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="external">Insight Creative, Inc.</a> for assistance.</p> <p>To optimize an image: make sure to only use .jpg image files. .png files save a lot more image data and can easily make an identical image four times the file size of a .jpg. If you are using an image editor like Photoshop, you will have image options when you save. Save as the lowest quality you can before your image starts to look bad (usually 80% quality). You should almost always shoot for under 300kb file size for all images you load to the website. When done right, it’s rare that the loss of image quality will be noticeable to an untrained eye.</p> <p>After you save your image, the front end of the website will automatically optimize and transform your image into a more modern and performant image. This ensures your images are loading as fast as possible.</p> </div> <h3 id="bulk-saving-of-edits">Bulk Saving of Edits<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#bulk-saving-of-edits">#</a></h3> <p>You can now make multiple edits across pages, files, and collections and save them all simultaneously in a single batch. CloudCannon records your edits as you go, allowing you to save them all in one click. This means you only need to wait for your site to build once.</p> <h3 id="build-times">Build Times<a class="tdbc-anchor" href="#build-times">#</a></h3> <p>Your new Jamstack website does all the work upfront to prepare files for your website visitors so pages can be delivered much faster. At the time of the website launch, your site is loading at around 600ms*.</p> <p>After editing a page's content, sit back, and enjoy some coffee. Give it a minute to rebuild your website and then go view your newly published change on the front end of your website. Builds typically take about 14 seconds, on average.</p> </content>
