Adding HTML Code

Post by Kantonia »

Project: https://neomarica.de/test.zip

The next problems. In NAMO I was used to have a split screen, editor above, HTML thereunder. So I could edit the HTML directly if wished (before NAMO I used to write my code only with an HTML-Editor, but now I'm too lazy).
  • I tried to insert this line to the imprint-page
    <a rel="me" href="https://troet.cafe/@Irisfreundin">Mastodon</a>
    and I took "At the end of the page" in the insertion window. But the Link "Mastodon" emerges on top of the page and I do not know how to remove the line.
  • For the new site I made a new favicon and replaced the old one. But the new one doesn't appear. The sysop of our server said that another line has to be placed into the html:
    https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_favicon.asp

    After the mistake with the Mastodon-Link I dare not to place it somewhere.

Note that WYSIWYG Web Builder is not a HTML editor, the HTML does not exist until you publish the website.
Also note that we cannot assist with custom code, because debugging other peoples code generally takes a lot of time.

However, the code will be inserted "AS IS", so if it does not work then it is either the code is invalid, it is place in the wrong part or the page or it conflicts with other code.

This may be helpful:

In my opinion, you should not add a link at the end of the page. It should be inside an HTML object.

I read the help page in the link. It doesn't work.

I took "End of page" because it was offered in the inserting window. I thought that the visible end was ment.

Then why are you referring to it in your post?
I do not know how to remove the line.
You can simply remove it in the same way you inserted.

If your just wanting to add a favicon so that it appears in the address bar there there is no need to add any code as suggested by your host/server you can do it by

Then either the code is invalid or you have used the HTML Object incorrectly.

This option simply inserts the code at the end of the page. It does not place the code in a container, so your code controls how it will be displayed on the page.

@BaconFries

In my (translated) Program there ist no "Icon" tab. Its name ist "Symbole" and so I didn't find it. Now it should be ok. Thank you.

No. The tab "Seiten HTML" only allows to add code, not to remove it.

But it is not displayed at the end of the page, where I placed it. It is placed on the beginning which would have been an option too. The problem is not the code, but how your program places it.

Re: Adding HTML Code

I am sorry but this has nothing to do with the program it is your interpretation of what the end of page means. In HTML it refers to the end of the code after the </body>and before the closing</html> and not at the bottom of the page were you wish it to be displayed.

See the following:
End of page example

Code: Select all

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h1>My First Heading</h1>
<p>My first paragraph.</p>
</body>
<--your code here-->
</html>
All of this is written at the following tutorial.

OK. The expression "end of the page" can be interpreted differently. And the program didn't place my code where you showed in the last posting, but after der </html>.
But I found another solution, I only wish to get rid of this piece HTML

Then as already mentioned you can remove the same way you inserted. If you have use the HTML Object then simply delete it.
If you have inserted using Page HTML then open this select end of page and delete the code. Or from one of the other possible tabs you may have used

We're going round in circles. Are you able to provide a copy of the relevant page in a WWB file?

I do not know what a WWB file is. But I solved the problem now. I just wanted to write it or else delete my last post. Thank you for trying to help.

It's the file that you work on in WYSIWYG Web Builder.

Glad you have sorted the problem out.

Then as I already mentioned, the tab "Page HTML" only allows to add code, not to remove it.
You can remove code that you have added yourself.
You cannot remove code that is generated by the software, because the code does not exist until you publish the page.
You control the generated code via properties of the objects. For example, if there is a link on the page that you have added visually, then you also remove it visually...
