Editing or Modifying the Content on a Page/Changing

By clicking the Edit
link corresponding to the page, the following page loads requesting you to

type or change the existing page to a different type. By selecting the former,
you will be taken to the next page which will allow you to edit the page
depending on the type of page chosen to edit, i.e. if a text page is chosen to
edit, then the page loads with an editor in order to edit the page or if a shop

will vary as per the page type that is chosen to edit. In case the later is

existing type for a different page type of your choice:
- Text Page - for pages containing just rich text
content with photos, images, tables, etc.

visitors to enter data in a custom form
