Creating an EditEase page
First step of using EditEase is to create an EditEase page through our admin dashboard. The page will hold all the text you will later use on your client&aposs website. We also provide a simple public UI that is easy to use, so your customers can change the texts themselves.
Creating a page
On the EditEase admin dashboard go to the My Pages tab and create a new page with the New Page
button.
You will be promted with creating a page with a title , page URL and a page password.
Note that the title and URL will not be used anywhere and are only ment for easier organisation, so they don&apost need to be exact. The page password can be changed later.
A new page card should be created in the Active Pages section. To view and edit the page click on the Edit
button.
New Page
button missing?If the
New Page
button is not present, it means that you already have maximum active pages for your EditEase account. To create a new page you will need to deactivate one of the other pages or upgrade your subscription plan.
A page can be active or Inactive. You are only able to fetch the text values from active pages.
Page view
Page view consists of two tabs:
Texts
To add a new text click on the + button located at the end of the texts list. You will need to pick a text name.
Text name is important
The text name will be used to find your text through the API call, so the values should be unique in the scope of a single page!
Note: text name can&apost be changed. If you want to change it, you should delete the current text and create a new one
After the text is created its value will be empty. To change the value of the text just Input the value and do not forget to press the Save
button. Deleting a text is irreversible!
Page settings
In the page settings tab you will find the information used for the page administration.
There are three fields:
- API key
- Public page URL
- Page password change
API key
API key is used when fetching the text values through API or libraries. More on that in Using EditEase. If your key gets stolen or leaked you can regenerate it by clicking on the button on the right of the API key.
Page specific key
API key is unique for each page, so if you have multiple pages you will have multiple keys.
Public page URL
This is the URL you will give to your customer. On this URL the customer can change the values of the page texts, but you are not able to add or delete texts.
The URL is locked behind a password. You can change the page password through the Change page password
button.
Great! You have successfully created your first EditEase page. Now it is time to use the texts in your client&aposs website.
