Using the edit plugin tool allows you to edit content inside a plugin as well as the configuration of that plugin. This will likely be your most used tool on Jolojo.
Edit Mode
Click on the "Edit Plugin" icon in your left hand side task bar - this will put you into Edit Mode.
Each plugin on the page will become highlighted with a dashed border as you hover over it, helping you select the correct one. Click a plugin once to select it - six icons will appear in the centre of the top Jolojo bar. Double-click to open the plugin's content for editing.
Once you have finished editing, click Save page (the floppy disk icon in the centre of the top Jolojo bar) to permanently save your changes. A save icon will appear whenever there are unsaved changes on the page.
Editing Options
When you select a plugin in Edit Mode, six icons appear in the top toolbar. These give you control over the plugin's content, appearance, access and history.
- Save page - Saves all changes made to the page permanently. The save icon appears in the centre of the Jolojo top bar whenever there are unsaved changes. Always click this after editing to lock in your changes.
- Cancel plugin changes - Cancels any changes made to the currently selected plugin and returns it to its previous state.
- Plugin meta - Opens a panel where you can set the plugin's Name, a Link URL (with an option to open in a new tab), and view the Created at and Updated at timestamps. Giving a plugin a name saves it as an "Existing plugin", which means the same plugin (with the same content) can be dragged onto other pages. Any changes made to a named plugin will apply to all pages it appears on. See the Existing Plugins page to learn more.
- Plugin edit - Opens plugin-specific customisation options. For the Text plugin this includes Font Colour, Background Colour, and Padding. Other plugin types will have their own options relevant to their content.
- Plugin access - Allows you to control who can see the plugin. Options include: Use program, Require login, Super, and Admin. Tick the relevant checkboxes and click "Update permissions" to apply.
- Plugin versions - Shows a searchable history of saved versions of the plugin, allowing you to review or restore previous content.
