- Reorder the banners by dragging the images and change the layout by selecting one of the options presented.
- Next, if you want to change the image itself, you need to remove an existing banner – simply hover it and click the red icon in the top right corner. Then add your banner using the Add Banners option.
- To add the text and link to each banner, hover the respective banner thumbnail, click the ‘Set the text and link’ icon and fill in the fields in the pop-up window.
All of your edits will be available for preview on the right side of a screen so that you can combine different banners, reorder them and try different layouts to make the website match your desire. We hope you’ll enjoy working on it!
