Step by step
Navigation (the site menu)
- Open Website → Navigation. Add Navigation Item creates one of three types: a Direct Page Link, a Dropdown Menu holding several pages (a “Times” menu with Records and Top Times), or an External Link to any URL.
- Reorder with the up and down arrows on each item. A page not in the menu is still reachable by its URL, so you can link it from a block or the footer instead.
Theme (look and feel)
-
Open Website → Theme. Choose Your Mood sets the whole personality in one click: Elegant, Minimal, Playful, or Professional, with Custom for tinkerers.
-
Then fine-tune per area: navigation placement (top or left), sticky header, logo position and size, header and body fonts, block spacing, roundedness, shadows, and scroll animations. Header and footer each have their own toggles (Contact us, Member login, social buttons).
-
The Alert tab puts a site-wide banner up (“Pool closed Friday”): turn on Show Alert, write the header and text, pick a severity.
Brand (logo, colors, contact info)
-
Open Website → Brand. Upload the Site Logo and a Favicon (the browser-tab icon).
-
Site Colors has a light theme and a dark theme, each with its own text, brand, and link colors, plus which one the site defaults to.
-
Contact information, the staff who receive the contact form, and your social links live under the Theme tab’s Global options.
-
Two more settings sit in Theme → Global. Under Parent App, the Website Link switch adds a Website entry to the parent menu, a Team Website widget for the parent dashboard and a Team Website row in the mobile app’s More menu, once the site is published. The Google Analytics Measurement ID field takes your GA4 ID (G-XXXXXXXXXX) and your live site loads Google Analytics with it.
This one is a web task. Use team.commitswimming.com in a browser.
Common questions
My new page isn’t in the menu. Creating a page doesn’t add it to navigation. Add it under Website → Navigation.
Can a menu item link off-site? Yes. Add a navigation item with the External Link type, or put an external link inside a dropdown.
How do I add Google Analytics? Website → Theme → Global → Google Analytics Measurement ID. Paste the G- ID from your GA4 property. The published site starts reporting; the builder preview never loads it.
Parents can’t find the website link. Turn on Website Link under Theme → Global and publish the site. The link shows only for a published site on Team Premium.
The colors look off on my phone. Check the Theme tab’s preview on the phone size, and give it a hard refresh. Theme changes publish right away.
