Making a change, start to finish
Seven steps, from signing in to seeing your change on the live website. This is the whole thing.
-
01
Open the staff area
Go to metropolitangolfclub.lumanaire.co.za/admin in any browser, on a computer or a phone. Bookmark it; you will come back to it often. If you are not signed in it takes you straight to the sign-in screen.
The sign-in screen. Nobody reaches the staff area without a login. -
02
Sign in
Your name is ivano, all in lower case. Your password was sent to you separately, not in this guide. Type both and press Sign in. You stay signed in on that device for 30 days.
Your name is ivano. The password came to you separately. -
03
Find your way around
This is the overview. The menu across the top is the whole system: Pages for the words and pictures on the website, Newsletter for the mailing list, Enquiries for messages from the contact forms, Applications for people applying to join, and Settings for the club’s details.
The overview. Everything starts from the menu along the top. -
04
Choose a page to change
Under Pages you get every page on the website. Click the one you want. The list tells you which pages have already been edited and which are still as we built them.
Every page on the website, in one list. -
05
Pick the part of the page
A page is made of sections, in the order they appear on the website: the banner at the top, then the text, then the price tables. Use Edit to change one, the arrows to move it, the eye to hide it without deleting it, and the bin to remove it.
The Green Fees page, broken into the sections a visitor scrolls through. -
06
Make the change
Each box is one thing on the page, with a plain description of what it is. Change the words, choose a different picture, add a row to a price table. Nothing happens to the website until you press Save.
The editor for one section. Every field says what it does. -
07
Save it
Press Save. It confirms that the change is live. Open the website in another tab and refresh: your change is there, usually within seconds.
Saved. The change is on the website immediately.
The other screens
Pages is where you will spend most of your time. These are the rest.
Enquiries
Every message from the contact, membership, corporate, functions and coaching forms. New ones are marked, you reply straight from your email, add a note, and mark them done.
Applications
People applying for membership online. You see everything they filled in, open their ID copy securely, and move them from new through to approved.
Settings
The club’s details in one place: phone numbers, email addresses, opening hours, social links, where enquiries are sent, and the online booking link once Clubmaster gives it to us.
Worth knowing
- Everything is saved, nothing is lost.Every save is kept. If you change your mind, the page’s History puts back an earlier version.
- You cannot break the website.If anything goes wrong with a change, the website falls back to what it had before. The public site stays up.
- Your login is yours alone.Each person gets their own. Please do not share it. If somebody else needs access, ask us and we will make them one.
- Online booking is not connected yet.The moment Clubmaster releases visitor tee times and gives us the link, we paste it into Settings and booking goes live. Nothing else needs to change.
- Stuck?Email hello@lumanaire.co.za with the page you were on and what you were trying to do.
