Button Properties

Button Properties

Button Size Options from 3 sizes, small, medium, large.
Button text This is the text that appears inside the button on the page.
Link to page This is the internal page within the site for linking to. It contains all site pages.
Link to url

This field is where you wish the link to go to an external page, or used as an anchor point within the same page. Using this option overrides any value in the 'Link to page' selection.

Linking the button to a file: If you want to have your users download a file from this button:

  • right click on the folder icon on the right of this field, to open the Filemanager
  • insert your file.
Top & Bottom Spacing Sizing is set to 'the grid', to keep uniform spacing throughout your website. If the button is the last item in a section, it is generally recommended to have spacing set to 'None' and spacing set by the section.
Button alignment Button alignment controls where the button will align to within the section it is placed.
Hover animation There are multiple animations to choose from to give your button an interesting effect on hover. Some animations may not be selectable, depending on the type of button you have selected.
Event tracking Event tracking is to allow you to set values that push back to Google analytics so you can find out important information about user behaviour on your site. Learn more here.
Colour scheme Where your site has a colour scheme selected, it gives you quick access to choose a button colour from your scheme. Alternately you can click the custom colour and manually add any colour of your choosing.

Deleting a button from your page

  2. Hover your mouse on top of the button.
