Staff with rights to edit the Welcome page can make appropriate changes. The Welcome page uses snippets that contain pre-made HTML code to allow for faster content creation. For example, a snippet can be added at the top which will adjust other existing content down to allow new content to be reflected. The picture functions of the snippets allow for images to be resized automatically.
The snippets and Welcome page do not include functionality to add a popup that opens automatically when any page of the site is accessed (i.e. COVID information, etc). Any content has to be added manually and updated accordingly.
Important Note: The Welcome page and the WYSIWIG editors within the Eleyo system use HTML code to add the functionality. Using the Grammarly browser plugin can modify the HTML structure of content on the Eleyo Welcome page as well as all WYSIWIG editors within the system. This can cause problems when trying to create, update, and/or display your content. It is recommended that you disable or remove Grammarly when using Eleyo. Below are some basics on doing that.
- Chrome users may disable Grammarly by selecting the browser menu > More Tools > Extensions (or browse to Chrome:extensions) and uncheck the Enabled box next to Grammarly.
- Firefox users may navigate to about:addons and select the Extensions panel. Select the Grammarly add-on and select Disable. Select the Restart now button if it displays.
Please reach out to your district IT/ computer support team for any additional questions regarding disabling Grammarly.
In addition, if the HTML code is altered and is not reflecting the original formatting, it may be necessary to re-create that snippet from scratch (remove one and replace it). Once changes are saved, there is not a way to revert to a previous version.
