Group: NOC Post Group: Newbie Posts: 14 Status:	I agree that SitePad it not as intuitive as the SAAS tools mentioned above. 1) the translation to French isn't complete about 40 to 50% is currently in english. 2) the bug with needing to be able to select a new site without first having to choose a theme hasn't been completly fixed yet. How to reproduce : When you first arrive it says "You are editing example.org" and you can edit it, but once you have edited it this bar disapears and when you click on "Change site", Then on "Add" it says "You must first choose a theme". You half fixed this bug with the bar but still haven't completly fixed it. 3) A lot of the themes don't work well on wide browsers (when you expand them to 2580px large (browser on 27" iMac monitor) some themes look strange. 4) side section's button's still don't fit on buttons in side menu in French, it's better but the text still overflows to sometimes 4 lines. (grid image gallery, social network buttons and social network medias all jump to 3 or 4 lines). 5) it's gloably quite difficult to find where to edit some things. For example I enable the theme "Factory". Let's say I want to edit the default content in the header. The natural thing to do seems to be to click on it. This does nothing. Then as a more advanced user (you have already lost beginner users here) I select header in the pages list. I can now move the Mail Us @, Great Industrial and 123 Main Steet elements but when I click on them I don't see where to edit the text. After a few minutes I notice that you don't force the scroller to show and that I can scroll down to edit the text. https://www.dropbox.com/s/gg31vofkzn8x059/Screenshot%202019-02-01%2021.10.39.png?dl=1 Here again you have lost an intermediate user. I then want to change the icon, and have to search in english. I search house, find nothing, have to search home. There is no way to scroll through icons and you have to guess the correct english word. I then decide I need 4 columns at the top, not 3. I click on an existing element and try to right clik. Nothing. So I then try to resize the 3 existing without success. I then click on what looks like a duplicate button in the Service zone, it hides the service zone. and finally I notice a duplicate button in the top menu. I managed to duplicate a column, nice ! but you have to learn about that button, it's not obvious untill you have used it once. 6) Contextual menus and keyboard shortcut's are non existant. I deleted something by mistake and couldn't find how to cancel it. CTRL + Z or CMD + Z didnt' work, and I could see any undo button. I also tried right clicking multiple times and there was not right click menu. SitePad is definitely a good tool. There are alot of very nice things about it. I think it's my favourite tool among all existing cPanel WYSIWYG website creators. It feels extremely close to being great, but it's not quite there, it needs to be easier to use for beginner users. It should have almost no learning curve and everything should be obvious.
