Hello world (2 mins)

In this video we create and publish a website with one page that simply says 'Hello world'.

  1. Under the 'Websites' tab click 'Create a new website'
  2. Give it a name (anything will do), select 'Blank website' then click 'Create website'.
  3. Your new website now appears in your list under 'Websites'.
  4. Click 'Edit website' to load the website into iCode CMS.
  5. Click 'Add a page' in the left panel and select the default page template.
  6. Set the menu text. This is the text that will appear in your website's menu.
  7. Click 'Edit page template' and delete everything within the BODY tag.
  8. Type something simple within the BODY tag then 'Save'. 
  9. You can continue to edit your website but you cannot publish yet because the web server has not been set up.
  10. Go back to the 'Websites' tab and click 'Settings' for your new website.
  11. Note the IP address (yours may be different to the one in the video). Before you can view your live website you need to set the A record of your domain to this IP address.
  12. Click 'Edit website' then 'Publish'.
  13. You can now view your live website by browsing to your domain or clicking the link at top right.
  14. Bear in mind that it can take up to a day or so for the DNS to catch up with the new IP address, so if you cannot see your new website straight away, don't panic.
