Scheduled Downtime 13th September 11am BST

On the 13th September we are updating our core software, which means there will be around 10 minutes of downtime.

 

We require the downtime in order to make some database changes.

 

While we expect the changes to take less than 10 minutes to complete, we’ve giving notice for downtime between 11:00 and 11:30 BST.

 

During this time, Siteleaders will not be able to login to their sites and visitors to sites will see an unbranded page letting them know that essential maintenance is underway and that they should return later.

 

Thanks for your patience – it’s appreciated.

New File Manager Released

Well haven’t the developers been busy? One day they’re producing a loading of new templates. The next they’re coming out with a new file manager!

The new file manager really does make it a lot easy to find, access and use all the different additions to your website. All your files are now displayed in List View…

…or in thumbnail view:

In List View you can sort by name, size, upload date and file type.

It’s also easy to increase or reduce the size of the window, making it possible to see more of your files.

You get more detailed feedback about how each upload is progressing, and you can also drag files around from one folder to another.

Take a look and let us know what you think!

Even more new Templates!

The developers and designers have got the wind beneath their wings at the moment. OK, so ecommerce isn’t quite ready, but this year we’ve had the mobile version, two lots of templates, and most recently the blog.

This time it’s a minor release. We’ve added the blog feature to around 30 more templates. And we’ve got these great new templates for you too:

Take a look and let us know what you think!

WebEden Wins Web User Silver Award

Have you seen the latest issue of Web User magazine?

We’re very happy to say that in the Online Website Builder Group Test WebEden was given Silver!

We beat many other website builders from some of the biggest names in the business. It’s a proud day for everyone here at WebEden!

My thanks go to both you, the customers (without whom all this would be pointless!) and of course the developers, hard at work in the windowless box…

WebEden Blog feature now in live Beta!

With much fanfare, we’d like to finally announce the launch of the WebEden blog feature – now available for you in all its glory!

We’ve been taking about the new blog feature for the best part of 2 years, and it has been a long and intense bit of work to finally produce it. The product is still in beta so we’re really like to hear if you have any comments about how we can improve it.

To start with, we’ve got 9 awesome templates that are blog specific for you to choose from. If you prefer then you can just use a standard template.

If you just want to add a blog to your website, get started by clicking the new ‘blog’ button on the WebEden toolbar

That gets you into the new Dashboard:

from where you can add an Text Post, and image post, or an article post:

The two other main options from the dashboard are to manage your posts, or your comments:

Within settings you can control general stuff like posts per page, comments per page, author info, comments management, and where you want to upload images to:

That’s it

We’re really happy to get this product live, and we hope you enjoy using it. We’d really like to know if you have any feedback about the blog feature. Let us know what you think below, or the WebEden Facebook page or on Twitter.
