Attached is a screenshot of your site. Do you see the space or ads you are referring to there or have you removed some code per Diane's suggestion since this post?

Hi Justin,

Your best bet if you wish not to have the Free CSS template link on the bottom of your site is to select an alternate style. None of our premium styles list a design credit, so you might want to start there.

Free styles have the right to a design credit and unfortunately removing the link is not likely to be an option in the near future.

Hiya lambofgod,

We love your ambition! It takes a whole team of us just to keep up with the documentation we already have. Creating new tutorials and updating them all when there are changes implemented is a herculean task.

We will happily review anything you come up with. In the meantime, if there is information you feel we are missing with our documentation, please don't hesitate to let us know!

Oh you're right, that's a great idea, I should have thought to suggest that! Just take the pages you want to work on out of your menu. Please see instructions here. – Laura Thomas, on March 08, 2010 17:08

A comment on the question "Uploading/publishing pages. Is it possible to select which pages to upload/not upload?" in Yola:

No, this is not an option in YolaPro, sorry for not addressing that specific question earlier. I was suggesting you enable password protection for the purposes of keeping pages private while you work on them, but it sounds like that does not suit your needs. As for publishing the whole site each time you make change, it's actually good for search engines to see you are making frequent updates to your site and can improve your search standing. – Laura Thomas, on March 08, 2010 13:28

Hi JenC,

When you publish, it does apply to your entire site and not just sections of it. However if you have pages you wish to remain private, you might want to consider password protection.

What this feature allows you to do:

1. Assign a single login ID (username) and password to your site.
2. Choose whether you want to lock (password protect) all the pages on your site.
3. You can then share the login ID and password with people you want to give access to the protected pages.
4. When they access your protected pages they will be asked to type in the login ID and password before viewing these pages.

What this feature does not do:

1. Allow people to register for a username and password on your site. This is a registration feature which we hope to release in future.

How to use the Password Protection feature:

1. Click on the Site Manager tab.
2. Click on "Site Password Protection" underneath the list of pages of your site.
3. Add a login name and password and tick the pages you would like to protect.
4. You can easily protect all your pages by clicking on "Lock All" or take off the password protection by clicking on "Unlock All"
5. When you create a new page, you will see a check box that gives you an option to protect (lock) the new page.
6. Preview your protected page to see what the login form will look like and to test your log in and password.
7. To make the change effective on your live site, click on the green "Publish to the web" button.

Hi Jack,
Thanks for sending along all this information, it will most certainly help us in working towards a solution. I see that I'm going to need some help with this, so I appreciate your patience as we work through this.

A comment on the question "How can I tell how much traffic my site is getting?" in Yola:

Hi Tyler,

You need to paste the code into each page of your site that you want tracked, currently I only saw it on one page and there it was inserted into a text widget whereas it needs to be added to an HTML widget.
this tutorial for step by step instructions. – Laura Thomas, on March 05, 2010 15:25

Hi Will,

I do see what you are referring to, which means unfortunately it has been saved. Can you tell me which image you were editing in Picnik when it all went wrong. Have you tried removing it to see if everything falls back into place?
