How to Build a Website on Uber

On Uber you can easily build pages and link them together into a website. Use our one-step publishing tools to design a photo gallery, slideshow or video page and for those of you who are really creative, try the blank canvas to start from scratch. Once you've made all of your pages, you can link them together into a website. There's no limit to the number of pages you can make, so try a few things out and see what works best for you.

Building your pages

There are two options for creating pages and they can both be found in the Create tab.

You can make a photo gallery, slideshow or video page using the one-step publishing tools and get a new page instantly. This is the easiest way to get a great-looking page using Uber's unique themes. But don't worry, you can always customize it too.

You can also create a completely customized page with the blank canvas option. This is the more advanced option of the two, but it gives you the freedom to design any type of page you like.

Once you have created all of your pages, you are now ready to link them together into a website.

Linking your pages together

You can choose whether you want to feature all of your pages on one main page, or use navigation so people can browse through your site pages.

We automatically add all of your new pages to your Uber blog (unless you uncheck the option when making the page). If you skipped the Uber blog setup when you first registered, you can do it later by going to My Pages and clicking the "set up your uber blog now" link. This is the easiest way to make a single-page website because all of your pages will auto-add to your Uber blog.

The other option is to use the navigation module to add a navigation bar to your site pages (similar to what you see on most websites).

To use the navigation module
	Go to the My Pages tab. Locate the homepage of your site and click Customize in the Page Options. Open the Uber Editor on the next page.
	In the editing options, click Modules and locate the Navigation module. Select it and press Save to add it to your page. Another window will automatically open where you can customize the navigation.
	In the navigation edit window, your pages will show on the right and the pages in your website will show on the left. Drag and drop each page you want to include in your website to the box on the left. You will see each page add to the list.
	Drag and drop pages to reorder the navigation. Make sure your homepage is first in the list. Use the "Add to entire website" button to apply this navigation to all pages in your site.
	Use the Layout tab to edit the layout of the navigation on this page. Use the Body Styling tab to change the display. *Note: You must edit each page navigation module individually by following the steps above for your other pages. When you're finished editing the navigation module, press Save and you'll return to your page. Drag and drop the navigation to where you want it to appear.
Click Publish to save your changes. Your navigation bar will now be added to all of the pages you chose, so your pages will all be linked together. The final step is setting the homepage of your Settings link next to your desired homepage. Select the Navigation Options from the Modify this Page menu, and check the option for "Use as the landing page for http://sitename.uber.com". This will set that page as your homepage, which means it's the first page people see when they come to your website. Your website is now complete!
