Thank you both. 2 ways to skin this metaphorical cat.

In the editor the heading is as it should be. In the browser, the image moves over the heading and I don't know why.
I have tried various Fixed, Floating, Fixed Header... and changed the order of the elements but nothing works as I expected.

Well, that will keep me quiet for a while.
I read through the help before posting and must have missed the CMS cards bit.
Thank you.

Alan

I need to display a book cover image, a description or blurb and a series of reviews for this book.
There will be a number of different books, say 100 or so, displayed in horizontal rows.
The order of the displayed books will be randomised from time to time so no individual book is always at the top ...

Alan

Thank you Pablo, I can work on my project knowing that issue has a solution.
A great piece of software.

Alan

I have just bought V17 and restarted a project I was thinking of building when I installed V15, so I am hoping to avoid looking for something that still doesn't exist.
Simply put, is there a way a user of the webpage can add their own news item so it displays on the webpage?

Alan

I had seen that link.
I have also found WaterCooler-Chat which appears well thought out.

Alan

Thank you Pablo.
If anyone can point me in the direction of suitable scripts that would be very helpful.

Alan

Just as an example, can a simple text based chat similar to the appearance of Facebook be created directly by WYSIWYG?

Alan

Thank you for the clear explanation, crispy68.
That part works now but it did raise another issue. The grid with the photo anchored to the top of the page. I did resolve this by putting in a divider between the header and grid, but I wondered if there was a better way so the objects naturally ...

Alan

I understand about the empty footer, but even with text in it, it isn't behaving as expected.
In the workspace, it is at the bottom of the manually set page lengths but when published, the footer is under the header and not below the content of the displayable pages.
I put the modified project in ...

Alan

Thank you for your speedy reply.
I have updated the original content at the above link (first post) with a minimal project.
The footer does go to the bottom of the page, but the page has to be set manually to length. Whilst I can live with this, I thought the page length grew or shrank with the ...

Alan

I have now set the Layout grid as a footer, but this hasn't actually solved the problem I thought I had.
Yes, the LG now sticks to the bottom of the Master page.
This is a very short page without content (having no text, images or other objects). However, other pages will have varying content and so ...

Alan

This is my first Masterpage attempt and I find the footer does not automatically move down to the bottom of the content pages.
I did try to insert a content place holder as mentioned in some instructions, but this does not solve my difficulty.
Yes, I am doing something wrong, but I would appreciate ...

Alan

I understand. Thank you.

Alan

If a large resolution image is included on the web site and displayed on the page as a thumbnail or on a card as a small image, does Web Builder optimize the image size accordingly?
With a photo site, there may be both small and large displays of the same image, so should I size both images manually ...

Alan

Thank you Pablo, the link was my first thought solution.
The good news is your next update. That would seem to be the perfect answer.
In the meantime, I will bash on with a manual approach and see where the idea takes me.
I always have this dilemma when faced with the option of web or an app. I ...

I would like to develop a simple website called Alderney, through the ages. This will be a photo gallery based website, but rather than the usual slide show where hundreds of photos will be displayed (Yawn!) I hoped to break it up into categories.
With normal software (which I am familiar) this can ...

Alan

I mistakenly thought the index page was an essential piece of the web page structure.
Thanks for clearing that up.

Alan

Hi Pablo, thanks for being so patient. I hang my head in shame about the file names and the fact Templates have to be installed.

Regarding the 'index', are you saying I have to choose either wb15_atthecoast OR wb15_atthecoast_with_breakpoints and rename one as index and delete the other?

Alan

I am working with another template from the Template Page http://www.wysiwygwebbuilder.com/templates/atthecoast.zip
and as you know, the image content is stripped out of the download version.
I assumed all I would have to do was pop in my own images, but this just doesn't work.
The file name of the ...

Alan

Thank you both, that has not solved my difficulty.

Alan

Using a Flex Container, I imported a Background image through the file dialogue under Style and centred horiz and vert & size = Contain.
This looks perfect in the editor, but the image vanishes in preview.
What have I got wrong?

My objective is for the image to scale smaller as the view port is ...

Alan

That worked, thank you.

To adjust the levels of the title text and menu so the tops start a set distance down the layout grid, not necessarily both through the central axis, how do advise this fine adjustment be made?

Also, the title is the deepest item, in this case, so the text (not its ...

Alan

I changed the grid system to flexbox but it made no difference.
Here is a link to the pages. https://1drv.ms/u/s!ArAx9oM6899RgexsvM0 ... g?e=Izdd3b
The only content, where the problem is is on master-page.
I hope this helps.
Thanks.

Alan

I have a Layout Grid as a page header and find the Text Box inside it, for the business name, sticks to the top of the Layout Grid.
Is padding to the top of the text the only way to fudge vertical centring?

Alan

In Web Plus there were repeating elements that took data from a database and displayed the data in a cascade of the elements.
I haven't been able to find such a beast in the documentation, so is there such a thing?

To be clear, the element was constructed as a series of fields that related to the ...

Alan

I have a card container with cards in it. I can't find any method or setting that changes the container height (white space above and/or below the cards.
https://1drv.ms/u/s!ArAx9oM6899RgexrGfp ... Q?e=FhuEJy
Can anyone explain how this adjustment is made?

Alan

Thank you again for your help.
Sorry to keep wasting your time. I now feel I am making good progress.

Alan

I have found the current location for the DPI adjustment in your software and it has corrected the published layout.
Thank you for clearing up that unexpected problem.

Typically this is the result. Editor is perfect, in Edge, this is the preview or Published result. No changes made at all to the downloaded template.

Alan

That leaves me wondering what the purpose of the Make Default button is.
If it isn't setting the target screen size the same for all existing ages, why is it offering to set all or just this page in the Yes/No dialogue box?
What settings will the button set as Default?

Alan

I have just noticed your reply and apologise for my late reply.
I think your template will be most educational and will dig into it now.
So you were a Web-Plus'er like me. The combination of a great program and meticulous documentation was in my humble opinion, a world-beater.
It was because Pablo ...

Alan

I have found that If I create several pages and then specify different Target screen size, 800X600 for example, the 'Make Default' button does not update the existing pages as it states when YES is clicked.
What have I misunderstood?

Alan

I have been looking at some of the templates made by your program, so I can understand how things are supposed to work.
They appear perfectly laid out in the editor but become overlapped and disordered to a significant extent in preview and publish.
The warning is that if modified they cannot be ...

Alan

Thank you Pablo.
I have since found the Demo and I am examining it. I see you have used shapes for the heading, side panel and footer.
It is possible most of my difficulties are because I have been using Blocks for heading and footer. This presents me with the problem of parting them. Only certain ...

Alan

The tutorial appears to be incorrect for the Master Frame.
It states: "To insert a Content Place Holder select Menu->Insert->Advanced->Content Place Holder."
In fact, there is n such item as Advanced. However, I have discovered the place holder can be obtained from Layout or Toolbox.
BUT this does ...

Alan

Suddenly the page properties have lost tabs.
I rebooted the computer and with a new project, I added 2 pages after index and looked at the page properties. As the photo shows, tabs are now missing.
What has gone wrong?

Alan

I did appreciate your quick reply.
I had already looked at the Layer Grid and the pros & cons. I also downloaded the Clouds template to dissect it, but it left me more confused. The explanation about the grid suggests it can't be used with layers but Clouds uses layers with the grid. Also, the ...

Alan

This is my first attempt at constructing a web site for the purpose of learning this software.
Starting from the default software case, ie, started for the first time, I added 2 parent pages. Master and Home. Home has been set to link or recognise the master page under the Miscellaneous tab.
Master ...
