Website design and layout is where you'll find all the controls that govern the colors, fonts, widths, layout and design of your website. Content blocks are all editable individually, but for the overall wrapper you'll find:

1. sitewide navigation - check the boxes for which to include:

2. Optional information strip along the very top with your email and social links

3. Chunky footer adds an editable text area. Choose your colors.

4. Overall website width; font pairings; title alignment; social sharing description and social media links. (drag these up and down to re-order them) For authors, bookstore links.

Width detail:

Fonts (for custom Google fonts, just ask)

Social media icons

Bookstores

5. Sidebar block for embeddable code (social feeds, mail list, etc.)

6. Facebook sharing image - with instructions for refreshing this this Facebook tends to cache it.

7. Website button colors and shapes; logos for navigation and footer - with preferred sizing and placement

8. Sitewide menus: menu bars, dropdowns, text color, link colors, plus an accessibility boost checkbox to underline all links
