A. Our software by itself does not include any design work. Design work is something totally separate. You can use any one of the
templates we offer or you can hire us to create a design, or you can provide the design. Only 1 template is currently included (unless otherwise advertised on our
Price List) if no design is purchased or provided (otherwise no templates are included).
A. It's possible to use WordPress, but is awkward and not recommended. What is best is if after you've made the pages in WordPress we copy them over into the system for you and then they are in the system and not in WordPress. The tracking is better that way, easier to customize it with replication, plus a smoother experience for the visitors.
A. No, our platform is not a WordPress plugin and you do not need WordPress. It has it's own WYSIWYG editor, and you can turn off the editor and use HTML.
A. Subdomains for Members
By default, all members have a sub domain created for them for their primary page. The sub domain looks like: username.mydomainname.com
Subdomains for other Purposes
Yes, a sub domain can added and you can do anything you want with that subdomain. Any member with a username that matches the subdomain would not be able to use the subdomain for their primary page.
Shared HostingIf you have shared hosting then we would need to edit the DNS records on our end as a
support request. When doing this, we can have the sub domain point to another hosting account (where you have
hosting elsewhere) and we will have the subdomain point to it. Then, you can do whatever you like on that separate hosting account (exa: install
WordPress).
Dedicated ServerIf you have a dedicated server with us then on the server page you can add a domain for the server and it creates a folder for it. When doing it this way you would enter the full domain (exa: subdomain.mydomain.com). WordPress or anything else you want can be installed in that folder for that subdomain.
WordPress Multisite
When using the WordPress tool you are unable to do subdomains for that WordPress site. The WordPress tool uses WordPress multisite so each member has their own login to WordPress to manage their own blog.
