The Edit website dashboard

The main screen is a map of the website. Each card is one part of the site and the SK / EN / DE / IT buttons open that language version directly.

  2. Hospitality Control – page texts, areas (the expandable items) and pillars.
  3. Software – page texts and the individual software items.
  4. Contacts – phone, e-mail, address and billing details.
  5. Blog – articles and news.
  6. Legal pages – privacy policy, cookies, terms of use.
The dashboard: click the language next to the part you want to edit.

You can always return here by clicking “Edit website” in the left menu.

  1. Click Hospitality Control in the left menu.
  2. Click the name of the area you want to edit, or Add area at the top.

  2. Create a bulleted list with the bullet button in the toolbar above the text.
  3. Indent a bullet with the Tab key to create a sub-item.

  2. Open an existing item or add a new one with Add item.

Team

The Team page has an introduction about the team and a ready-made space for presenting people. The members section appears on the website by itself once you add the first person.

  1. Click Team in the left menu, then Add member.
  2. Write the name as the title and fill in Position and Short description (2–3 sentences).
  3. Upload the photo with Set photo in the right column (portrait, ideally 800×1000 px).
  4. Set the order in Page Attributes → Order and save with Publish.
  5. Edit the introduction about the team on the dashboard, card Team.

Until you add anyone, the page shows only the text about the team – no empty grid is ever displayed.

09

Blog articles

The blog is your space for articles and news. New articles are written in the modern editor.

  1. Click Blog in the left menu, then Add New Post.
  2. Write the title and the body of the article.
  3. Make the main subheadings Heading 2 – the table of contents is generated from them automatically.

If an article has no photo of its own, the site uses a brand photo so the listing never looks empty.

Languages and translations

The website runs in four languages: Slovak, English, German and Italian. Each language has its own content.

  1. Switch pages and texts with the SK / EN / DE / IT buttons on the dashboard.
  2. For an article or an area, look for the Languages box in the right column.
  3. Add a translation by clicking + next to the language.
  4. If a translation does not exist, the site shows the Slovak version – a visitor never sees an empty page.
The media library is shared across all languages.

Hotel logos, social links and the software logo are shared for all languages – upload them on the Slovak homepage.

Golden rules

  • Click Update after every change, otherwise it is not saved.
  • An empty field is not an error – the original text or photo is used.
  • Upload photos in good quality (at least 1600 px wide), the site resizes them for you.
  • Do not change anything under Settings, Plugins and Appearance – those are ours to handle.
  • If you are unsure about anything, just ask. One extra question beats an hour of fixing.
