It's best to back up your current template. Simply go to Dashboard>Layout>Edit HTML then click on Download Template near the top & save to your hard drive.
To install this template:
1. Open this link (Felicity Template) Copy the entire text. This is the code for your new template.
2. Go to Dashboard>Layout>Edit HTML
3. Highlight the entire code in the code box & delete it.
4. Now paste the new template code in the empty box.
5. Click Preview to check that all looks good.
6. If all is fine then Save.
7. You may get a Widgets About to be Deleted warning. Simply click Confirm & Save. Or you may get a warning that says Your New Template Does Not Include the Following Widgets. Check the list of widgets & simply click either Keep or Delete widgets.
If you don't want to have to re-load all your widgets, read here for a tutorial on saving your widgets.
The Felicity Template has a little something my older templates do not have ~ A top menu navigation bar! And customizing it is easy-peasy! Just follow these few easy steps:
1. Go to Layout>Page Elements.
2. Under the Header box you will see another one (a Widget box) that says HTML/Java Script
3. Open that widget by clicking on Edit in the lower right corner. You will see some code that looks like this:
4. You will need to change all the links, so all the code in green you will delete and add your own links.
5. All the text in red you will delete and add your own text. This will be the pages the links will lead to (ie, about, home, etc)
6. If you want to have a contact email (like the last link above) simply delete my email (in green in the above code) and add your own.
