Quickstart: Create a Site

This guide will walk you through the process of creating a new site using Siteglide's admin area.

Step 1: Access the Dashboard

Once you're logged into the portal, you'll find yourself on the dashboard.

If you don't see a 'Create a Website' button (as per 2nd screenshot) please contact us via Live Chat to prove you're human and we'll get you setup!

Once you're account is approved you should see the Create a Website button:

If you already have 1 or more site you'll see options to create a site, manage existing sites, or manage your company:

Step 2: Choose Site Creation Method

You have the option to create a new site from scratch or use a Template.

If you're new to Siteglide or less technical, it's recommended to start with a template because they're built with SiteBuilder, a tool to help you rapidly build and customise websites:

Quickstart: SiteBuilder

Please follow the above link if you're new to Siteglide

The rest of this Quickstart guide will focus on building a Custom Site. Click the 'Build a Custom Site' button.

Step 3: Name your Custom Site

Give the site a name and it will automatically create the URL. You will need to ensure it's unique, if it turns red please amend by making it more unique. Then click Create Site.

Step 5: Manage Your New Site Once Ready

And that's it! You've successfully created a new site, you will need to wait for it to be ready to use:

You will receive an email when it's done but can also find it under the Sites area:

The Status will show as Trial and there will be a new blue button in the bottom bar that will likely say Sign up for Admin Access if you've not yet used it, otherwise it'll say Admin going forwards:
