Tablet: Editing Sites

You can use your site editor right on your tablet to build, edit, and publish. The ability to update sites on the go allows you to make changes immediately, without having to wait until you’re back at your desktop. From your tablet you can:

  • Build a site
  • Add/remove/edit widgets
  • Place and manage images
  • Edit content

Many of the features are identical to the desktop editor with a few that differ.

Widgets

You can’t add widgets using the left menu, but if you click on any element, you can select “+ Widget” and the widget list will appear. The widget will appear below the selected element and you can drag it to the preferred location.
