I have registered a website and now want to modify it completely. Am I allowed to do this ? What may I change and what may not ?
You can change anything you want – create your own pages, modify templates and design. You can create your own design, upload it to the server and you’ll have a unique website. The only requirement is the presence of uCoz banner and copyright. Any attempts to remove them will lead to the deletion of the website (unless you have paid for the removal).
How do I transfer the created pages from another site to uCoz site?
Upload the pages to the File Manager. Then go to the Control Panel -> Site Menu Management and paste the links to the uploaded pages. These are static pages, so you must provide a full URL, e.g. http://your_site.ucoz.comu/page_name.html
How can I edit static pages?
By means of reuploading to the website.
Can I change default links into custom, e.g. www.website.ucoz.com/publ/1-1-2 for www.website.ucoz.com/articles/5
No.
How do I make subcategories? E.g. I want to make subcategories for albums in the category "audio".
For example you have the following pages:
Home (page 1)
Pictures (p. 2)
Audio (p. 3): Pop (p. 4), Rock (p. 5), Hip-Hop (p. 6)
Films (p. 7): Comedies (p. 8), Thrillers (p. 9), Dramas (p. 10)
Books (p. 11)
So, output the links to pages 2, 3, 7, 11 in site menu;
the links to pages 4, 5, 6 - on page 3
the links to pages 8, 9, 10 – on page 7
