Every Knorish account gets a site to build and manage that helps course publishers sell online courses. Whether you have an on-page site or a site with multiple pages and courses, they are areas that are accessible to all the users who visit your site, including your homepage.

  • Meta Title: A meta title is the SEO title for the page for search engines to understand what the page is about. Simply type in the name of the page as you would like the search engines to index it. 
  • Meta Description: Just like a meta title, a meta description is the SEO description for search engines to understand what the page is about. Simply type in the description of the page with a few details about what it entails.

Design/ Edit a Page

Once a new page has been created, you would need to edit the page design and content, and add relevant call to action buttons, etc. Here's a detailed step by step tutorial on how to design or edit a page: How To Create, Design A New Page

Delete a Page

In case you do not require a page on your site, deleting it is a simple task. 

• Access dashboard > Website Builder > Pages 
• Under Pages, find the page that needs to be deleted
• Under action, select delete. 
• Confirm the deletion of the page on the pop-up by re-entering the name of the page clicking on 'Yes, Delete it'. 

Once done the page will be deleted permanently.

Copy A Page

You can also copy an existing page instead of creating a new one. The design and content gets copied making it easy to complete the task faster. The new page has a new URL as well.  

You can either create a duplicate a page from the pages section by clicking on new page and then My pages or copy paste the HTML code of an existing page. Follow the detailed steps listed in the FAQ here: How to copy a page and create a duplicate?

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why am I getting this error while trying to delete the page?

This error is shown when there are any dependent submenus under this page.

For example, here we are trying to delete the page ‘Confusion to Clarity’ that has 3 different pages under it as dropdowns. Hence, in order to delete the page here, you need to remove the 3 pages from the parent ‘Confusion to Clarity’ either by removing them from the menu bar or deleting them (if the pages are no longer needed).

2. I have selected ‘Display in top menu,’ yet the page is not displaying on the menu bar. How can I fix it?

It is possible that the page that you’re trying to add to the menu bar is under a menu item that is either unpublished or removed from the menu bar. As the parent (under which the page used to be a menu item earlier) is not on the menu bar, this page also won’t show up on the menu bar. 

In order to fix this, visit the dashboard > website builder > click on the edit icon against the page that you’re trying to add to the menu bar, scroll down and click on Detach parent as highlighted below:

Important Considerations

Once a page is deleted, it cannot be reverted. Hence, In case you want to just hide the page and not delete it, you can click on the 'Edit' Button located next to the delete button and uncheck the Publish this page button. This will unpublish the page and make it available for future references if required.
