Foleon Docs

The main thing you’ll be doing in Foleon is creating content, which you create in a Foleon Doc. These hold all your content, divided into different pages enriched with text, images, and other elements. In the dashboard, you can access and manage the different Foleon Docs.

Docs Page

In addition to the project settings that apply to all Foleon Docs within a project, each Doc also has its own settings that only apply to that specific Foleon Doc. We’ve conveniently grouped these into settings regarding the Basics, Marketing, Navigation, and Access Control.

You can preview your Foleon Doc to see what it looks like outside the content creation environment. If you’ve already published your Doc, the preview feature also allows you to preview your changes before setting them live.

The preview URL is freely shareable and accessible to anyone with the URL, even if they don’t have a Foleon account. If you want to share a preview of your Foleon Doc with someone, simply send them the preview URL.

💡The preview of your Foleon Doc can’t be found through search engines and is only accessible to those that have the URL.

Review mode

Review mode lets your team leave comments on a Doc. Collaborate with reviewers to process feedback and publish faster.

Publish

Once your content is done and you’re ready to share it with the world, you can publish it! During publishing, we optimize the Foleon Doc for search engines, fine-tune the imagery, and make it available on a hostname of your choice. You can always update a published Foleon Doc at any time by republishing it.

When you are ready to take your Foleon Doc live, click on Publish in the top right corner of the editor.

Next, you will see a pop-up with the final Publish button and what your Foleon Doc URL will be. When the Foleon Doc is published, the screen will show you the URL and the possibility to republish when a new change has been made.

Pages

Every Foleon Doc consists of pages. Pages hold all of your content, which includes Blocks, Columns, and Elements. In addition to project settings and Foleon Doc settings, every page also has its own Page Settings that only apply to that specific page.

Blocks

Blocks are the base for every page. Columns and elements can only be added to a page if there is a block on the page to put them in. In the editor, we provide a wide variety of template blocks to choose from. These template blocks already contain columns and elements.
