Name and title

In this section, you will be able to edit the Name and title of how your website site appears in the Configure tab. You will also be able to select which page on your website is the Home page. 

• Site title - this will how in the browser tabs and title bar. If you don’t add a logo to your Site Theme, we will show the Site Title in the top right-hand corner of your website. Click here to learn how to add your logo.

• Home page - select a Page or Course on your site that you want your Home page to be.

• Internal name - only you can see this name within your Simplero admin interface. You can keep it the same as the Website title or enter a new name.

• Labels - add any labels here if you'd like, or create a new label by typing the name directly.

Site URL

This is the web address that your site will be available at.

You can hide the site from non-admins until you’re ready to launch and choose a landing page to show instead:

Graphics

The Card Image will appear on your customers’ Account Overview in their profile, where the sites they have access to are listed.

• We provide the following size recommendation for best results: 700 x 380 pixels

The Favicon is the tiny icon that appears next to the page title in the browser tab.

• We provide the following size recommendation for best results: 48 x 48 pixels

The Logo replaces the site title, or appears next to the site title if you have the Show site title even when logo is uploaded toggle is on:

• You can upload a version of the logo for light mode and dark mode. This means when a user visits the website in light mode, we’ll use the Logo for light mode (and vice versa for the dark mode version).

Feed Page

Simplero offers a system-generated page called the Feed Page that you can use on your site (it’s optional!)

• You can use it as a home page, or access it by typing adding /feed to the end of your Site URL.

• You can add it to your Navigation and Footer links using Layouts.

This is where you can add a description that displays at the top of this page:

Custom Domain

If you’ve purchased a custom domain outside of Simplero and verified it in your Settings >> Change Your URL page, you can point that domain to this site here.

If you have no domains verified in your account yet, you can press the white + Add domain button to add one to your Settings:

Community Features

Everything that has to do with liking or commenting on your Site’s Course lessons, Forum posts and Blog posts!

You can also add an email address to notify of any posts or comments requiring moderator approval (based on the settings you configure for that).

• AI-enhanced search: Allow users to use AI to search inside your site. This will only show your contact information based on the content on that site (including video transcriptions). For now, you can't feed it extra information. This settings also allows members to summarize threads on forums and groups. 
  
  
  It also allows you, as an administrator, to see what your members are searching for. You can do that on your site menu:
  
  
• Reactions on content: Allows your members to react to posts and comments
  
• Member-to-member chat: Allows all members to privately chat with each other. Administrators will always be able to chat to members, even if this setting is turned off. 
• Auto-collapse long comment threads
• Show engagement badges: If you are on the Rule The World, Scale or Skyrocket plans and it's the first time you’ve come across Badges, learn more about Engagement badges here!
• Engagement points type: Choose a points type that allows your members to accumulate points for interactions inside your site. This will allow you to gamify your site using things like: a leaderboard page (you can add that on the site navigation settings), allowing your users to get your products using those points, and motivate them with prizes.
• Comment security: Allow comments without logging in. This is only for public sites. If your site is closed, this will not allow anyone to see it. 
• Moderation email: Set up an email to get notified of new posts or comments that need moderator approval. This will depend on your blog and forum settings. 

Notification Settings

NOTE! It’s best practice to host courses on a closed Site, since it’s much easier to control access to them in this case (instead of your Main Website, which is always public).

However if you do host any of your Courses on your Website, participants would become Members of your Website. This is also the case when using the Blog on your Website.

In this particular case, members would have the option to receive certain notifications related to the site. Choose the default settings for new members in this section:

You can also disallow commenting by replying to email notifications.

Signup forms

This section lets you add an opt-in form(s) you've created in Simplero to every page of your site all at once. See our guide here for more detailed information on linking your different Simplero opt-in forms to your site.

Social profiles (Social media links)

This section is where you add all the URLs to your social media sites such as Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, etc. so people can click on the icons from your Site footer and view your social media:

As soon as you add your social media links on the section above, they’ll show up on your Site footer (example below):

Meta data

We have the Meta Data section where you can place your Meta title and description. 

You can also upload an image that’ll be shown when people share content from your website.

NOTE! The picture should be at least 200 × 200 for Facebook to accept it.

Triggers

Add a trigger that fires based on different actions that members take on the site, such as when…

• A new member joins

• A member logs in

• A member uploads a profile photo

• A member creates a forum post

• A member is absent/has not logged into the site for a certain amount of time

Here’s our guide on Triggers if you need an overview of how they work.

Advanced Settings

Configure the Advanced settings for your site, such as adding a Support Ticket widget, a Custom 404 not found page, etc.

Not Found Page

What do you want us to show when a page or content on the Main Site is not available: Simplero's built-in or your own Not Found page 😀

Here’s our guide on how to set up a Custom 404 Not Found page.

FAQ

SEO consequences of migrating your existing site to Simplero

Assuming you moved over the domain name, and use our blog migration tool to migrate your blog posts from your external site (on Wordpress, for example), all of your blog posts will still be served at their original URLs, though we will redirect them to the new URL.

As for all the other URLs, those will change. You can set up redirects for those manually, just like you'd need to move them over or recreate them manually in Simplero.

How this all affects SEO, we're not experts enough to say.

To Learn about your site URL check out our guides here on custom Domains and URLs

We also have a free Mastering SEO Webinar Series in our Simplero University (anyone with a Simplero account has free access to the this) with a video on SEO for a Website Migration to Simplero: How to Preserve Rankings & Results 💻

Remove "Powered By Simplero" From the Footer

For those on the Rule the World, Scale or Skyrocket plan you can remove the "Powered by Simplero" from the Footer by visiting: Settings >> Logos >> Advanced Settings:

If you choose to show Powered by Simplero in your Footers, you can turn them off for specific sites using Layouts.

You can also choose to use the Simplero Affiliate ID in place of the logo.
