Tips and Tricks

  • You can have more than one blog page. Consider a blog page for homework, newsletters, or keeping parents up to date about happenings in your classroom
  • Hide a page in your navigation. You can hide a page that is not ready for public viewing, one for handouts and resources you want to link to but not have the public readily access, to hide a page from last year until it's ready for your current school year or to cut down on the clutter of drop down menus
  • Add your page to our list of teacher websites built on Weebly: http://list.ly/35z
  • Columns are a great way to organize your site and make good use of your entire page check out this example.
  • Vertical Video Syndrome - on YouTube
