My Website: A Complete Beginner’s Tour

Learn where the main website controls live and how the editor, Live Canvas, preview, and publishing tools work together.

What you’ll accomplish

You will know how to move around My Website, make a safe draft change, preview it, and save it.

PhotoView My Website editor with page controls on the left and the Live Canvas on the right
The left panel contains the settings for the selected page. The Live Canvas on the right shows the effect of your changes before publishing.
1

Open My Website

Sign in to PhotoView and select My Website from the dashboard. The editor opens on the Home page.

The page selector in the top toolbar lets you move among Home, About, Contact, and the other pages you have enabled.

2

Understand the two working areas

Use the left panel to edit identity, template styling, page blocks, text, images, and visibility. Use the Live Canvas to see the result.

Open a card in the left panel to reveal its controls. The eye button shows or hides a block. The dotted handle lets you drag movable Home-page blocks into a new order.

3

Use the top toolbar

Switch between desktop and mobile canvas sizes to check responsive behavior. Hints explains the controls on the current page, Ask AI How To answers a specific PhotoView question, and Tours walks you through a complete task.

The status near Save tells you whether you are editing an unpublished draft.

4

Make and save one draft change

Open a text field, make a small change, and check the Live Canvas. Select Save when the result is correct.

Saving preserves the draft. It does not make the change public.

5

Preview before publishing

Select Preview in the Live Canvas header to inspect the website without the editing controls.

Publishing is a separate action. Nothing in this beginner exercise needs to go live until you are ready.
