Text that appears on several pages

  • Some text, such as a tagline or mission statement, can be connected to Business Text in the Site Editor's CMS panel. Change it there and it changes on every page that uses it.
  • To change a word or phrase everywhere at once, such as a phone number or a season name, use Find and Replace in the CMS panel.

What you'll see

Your changes show in the editor right away. Visitors see them after you click Republish.

If it doesn't work

  • The text can't be selected, or the area shows View Only. It's in a locked area, such as the header, the footer or a TeamSideline section. See CMS: Why can't I edit the header, footer or some page text? (View Only and locked areas).
  • A program's description, dates or prices are wrong. They come from the program on your admin site: the description from Program Description on the program's 1 Setup page, and the dates and prices from its offerings on 2 Configuration. To hide the standard registration details TeamSideline adds, check Hide default program text on 1 Setup.
  • Your change appeared on other pages too. The text is connected to Business Text. Change the shared text in the CMS panel, or ask TeamSideline Support to disconnect that copy.
  • Visitors still see the old text. Click Republish, then refresh the page.

Good to know

  • Text in TeamSideline sections, such as programs, policies, the Store and Donations, calendars and the Contact Us form, comes from your admin pages, so change it there.
  • To change pictures or buttons, see CMS: Replace an image or your page header (hero) image and CMS: Add a button and choose where it links.
