Here is short video about this new feature - Builder. Builder allows to easily add/edit blocks on your website and change their display order in visual mode.


By means of this feature you can quickly select content for your blocks - scripts, widgets, menus, video, audio, RSS, HTML code.
This feature is installed by default for all new websites. If your website was created before the global update you can enable Builder in Control Panel -> Common settings -> Use "Builder" for the website design customization.



Minor Builder Update


If the Builder option is missing on your Admin Bar, you need to go to the website Control Panel -> Users -> User groups -> Administrators -> Other, and enable the option "Edit site design".

After the update there will be two separate options in the user group permissions:



  • Edit site design: the option is disabled by default for all groups. Enabling of the option allows to access templates via the website, without the necessity to log in to the Control Panel. The templates are available by the address yoursite.ucoz.com/tmpls
  • Use Builder: the option is enabled by default for Administrators. Allows to use Builder and adds the Builder tab to the Admin Bar:



Note: if you disable the option "Use Builder" and enable "Edit site design", and then also disable the option "Use "Builder" for the website design customization" in Control Panel -> Settings -> Common settings, the Design tab will appear on your Admin Bar and you will be able to access all website templates or separate page templates via the Admin Bar:

How it "doesn't do anything"?

It just doesn't show anything, but when i use it with my other site which is 3 days old it works perfectly.

just not with my older site (the site that I use the most) kinda weird.

milkywaay, you need to restore default templates if you want Builder to work (note that you'll loose all changes you have made to the design)

heysupp, yes it is possible. You need to activate Builder, then go to CP -> Customize Design -> Template Builder and, using Help, create a skeleton according to the rules described in Help.

Lonsdal3, try to use another browser.

enraged, you are probably using this icon (it edits all blocks). Use this one to edit one single block.
