Editing a Google Site

When you are starting out with Google Sites, there are some simple page edits that you can apply to make your site work smoother. Here we go over three tips to use when editing your own pages.

Insert links in a Page

Open the page that you want to add links to. Click the Edit selection from the top menu bar. Next select the text that you want to add a link to, highlighting it, and then click the Link button from the top menu bar. Insert the URL information for your link and click the Save to secure your link.

Enable Comments for a Page

In Google Sites, when you want to allow comments, you will have to enable them on each page. You cannot enable comments just for the site and have them show up on the corresponding pages.

Open that page that you want to enable comments on, and click Edit on the top menu bar. Click on the More Actions button and a drop down will appear. In the drop down menu, click on Page Settings, and check the box that is next to Allow comments. Once the box is checked, click on Save and comments will now be enabled for that page.

Link to Sub-Pages

You can enable links to your sub-pages on a particular page of your site for easier site navigation. In order to link to your sub-pages within a page, first open your page, and click Edit on the top menu bar. Next click on More Actions, and select Page Settings from the drop down menu that will appear.

In the drop down menu, check the box that is next to Show links to sub-pages. Once the box has been checked, click Save for the setting changes to take affect. Your page will now have the sub-pages links enabled for your site page.
