Web Apps

Most of your website's content is built through custom web apps.You can visit these by clicking web apps from the left menu in the admin section.  

The following four are very similar.
The item name is the headline, you can load the logo in the image field, and apply the link in the link field. Just make sure it has http//   

The question goes in the Item Name field, the answer goes in the item description field at the bottom.
Now we need to classify the FAQ to display in the right category.  
Once you save your item, click Actions at the top left.

Select the category from the left box and move it to the right box.   

This is the four boxes on the homepage that click through.

I have built this so that it pulls on the page at random as to not have a long list on a particular page.   
Feel free to go in and delete any testimonials you are no longer using.

This web app holds the specific testimonials being pulled to pages.
Let Usable Creative know if you want to create new categories to pull.

Submitted Forms

Click here to view all submitted forms.
These forms are associated with certain workflows to be able to be emailed, but they are also stored in the CRM file.
You can filter the view by form or date.  

General Notes

Never upload an image or document with spaces or characters the name.  They should be named like this Home-Photo-Team.  
Also, we have a file structure in the website to keep files organized. For example, if you add a new team member, you would upload their photo in the following folder.  /_assets/img/Team You can see all of these folders in the File Manager.   
Each page should have a H1 tag for SEO. 
If you want to highlight something on a page, bold it, do not underline as most users think this means hyperlink
