You may have noticed some recent changes to SiteWizard CMS. We are proud to announce the following enhancements:

Improved Admin Interface The administrator interface has been redesigned making easier to use and more intuitive. The system now employs modal dialogs (floating windows) for most administrative tasks, allowing you to edit content without leaving the page. This provides a faster "inline editing" experience. Settings have also been reorganized using tabs and collapsible sections making it easier to find the setting you want without scrolling through a long list of options. Overall, the new admin interface has greatly improved the ease-of-use of SiteWizard CMS.

Updated HTML Technology All website designs (templates) built via the Skin Designer have been upgraded to XHTML with HTML 5 tag support. Previously many skins were running HTML 4 which caused Internet Explorer to run in "Quirks Mode" which turned off the latest HTML / CSS features. Now the latest web standards have been implemented...

SiteWizard LLC is proud to announce an enhancement to our Skin Designer.  We've added a new library of background designs.  The Skin Designer now offers over 600 options for background designs.  You can choose from the Standard background library (gradients and simple backgrounds) or choose Patterns/Tiles to pick from hundreds of repeating patterns.

Categories of the new Pattern/Tiles include:
  • Abstract
  • Animated
  • Clouds / Sky
  • Floral
  • Holiday / Special Occasion
  • Miscellaneous
  • Nature
  • Plaid
  • Polka Dot
  • Retro
  • Striped
To check out the new backgrounds, log into your website as an Administrator.  Go to Admin > Skin Designer.  Change the "Background Type" selection to "Pattern/Tiles".  Choose a Tile Category and you'll see a scrolling box with thumbnail images.  Click on any thumbnail image to preview.

We hope you enjoy this new addition!
