Store
The PageLines Store is the first-ever marketplace for drag-and-drop web design (think of it like an “app store” for drag-and-drop sections, plugins and themes). The Store makes it incredibly simple to buy and sell sections, plugins and themes designed that work seamlessly within the PageLines framework (which as you know runs on WordPress).
For developers, PageLines will put your products in front of hundreds of thousands of eager users. We also give you a 70% cut of each and every sale and you get to set the price.
Before the PageLines Store when you purchased a WordPress theme or framework you were stuck with what it gives you. If it didn’t have the type of feature slider you want, or a carousel, guess what you’d have to do?
That’s right: custom code some good ol’ PHP, HTML, CSS etc.. Fun huh?
Thankfully, the PageLines Store solves that problem for good. If you want to add new type of widget, sidebar, slider, etc… you’ll be able to find it on the Store then simply drag and drop it into your site – Presto! And you’re done.
T
Tag
A tag is a keyword which describes all or part of a post. Think of it like a Category, but smaller in scope. A post may have several tags, many of which relate to it only peripherally. Like Categories, Tags are usually linked to a page which shows all posts having the same tag. Unlike Categories, Tags can be created on-the-fly, by simply typing them into the tag field.
Tags can also be displayed in "clouds" which show large numbers of Tags in various sizes, colors, etc. This allows for a sort of total perspective on the blog, allowing people to see the sort of things your blog is about most.
Many people confuse tags and categories, but the difference is easy: Categories generally don't change often, while your Tags usually change with every post.
Template Area
Template Areas behave differently depending on which one you’re using. Here is a summary:
- These are Global Template Areas. They are present on all pages of your site. Only place sections here that you want on all or most pages
- The Sidebar areas are dependent on the Layout Editor
Page Templates
- These are the templates that will show up (between you header and footer elements) depending on which page template you choose. Or if a user is viewing a blog post or your posts pages.
Content Area
- This is the area where your content is placed, inside the main column of your content section.
Template Setup
The Template setup is probably the most important part of your site’s design and you’ll probably have to experiment with some of the options before you find the look you want.
It allows you to control the total look and feel of your sites templates, e.g. your post pages, page templates, etc… Not only that, it allows you to do this using drag & drop AND best web development practices! How about that?
That said, this is really easy, but you need to understand a couple key concepts first. Namely:
- Page Template The different templates you select when creating pages
- Page Type – i.e. your blog (posts) page, 404 page, etc...
- Template Area – The different areas in each template, i.e. the header area, or the content area…
- Drag and Drop Sections – Pieces of web design you can place in your template areas.
Once you understand what sections and template areas are, the rest is pretty easy. Click How to Use the Template Setup for more information.
Text Editor
A text editor is a program which edits files in plain text format, as compared to binary format. Using a non-text based word processing program (e.g. using Microsoft Word to edit PHP scripts) can cause major problems in your code. This is because non-text based word processing programs insert extra formatting into text files, and can corrupt the files when they need to be interpreted by the interpreter. An editor like Notepad does not insert any extra formatting.

A web server is a computer containing software for, and connected to infrastructure for, hosting, or serving, web sites written in HTML. The most common web server software on the internet is Apache, which is frequently used in conjunction with PHP, Perl, and other scripting languages.
