Website Settings
The Setup tab is where you decide which extra information should be visible on the website and whether the website should update automatically.
Most core content is controlled from your artworks, exhibitions, categories, and profile. The Website settings are for the extra visibility choices that apply across the whole site.
Automatic updates
Section titled “Automatic updates”Automatically update website decides whether Artlope should publish relevant website changes for you after your website already exists.
When this is turned on:
- the first website creation is still manual
- Artlope checks for pending website changes regularly
- the website is only updated when the newest pending change is at least 5 minutes old
This delay helps avoid unnecessary website rebuilds while you are still editing several things in one session.
If the switch is turned off, you keep full manual control and use the Update website button yourself.
Prices
Section titled “Prices”Show prices decides whether artwork prices appear on artwork pages.
If this is turned off, artwork prices stay private even if you have filled them in on the artwork itself.
Sale information
Section titled “Sale information”Show sale information decides whether artworks can show sale-related labels on the website.
This helps visitors understand whether a work is still available or already sold or reserved.
If this is turned off, those labels stay hidden.
Done artworks
Section titled “Done artworks”Show all done artworks decides whether finished and reserved artworks are included on the website by default.
If this is turned off, those artworks stay hidden unless you explicitly set an artwork to Always show.
Sold artworks
Section titled “Sold artworks”Show all sold artworks decides whether sold artworks stay visible on the website by default.
If this is turned off, sold artworks are removed from public pages unless you explicitly set an artwork to Always show.
Email address
Section titled “Email address”Show email address decides whether email contact entries from your Profile can appear on the About page.
If this is turned off, your email stays hidden on the website even if it is stored in your profile.
Telephone number
Section titled “Telephone number”Show telephone number works in the same way for phone contact entries from your Profile.
If this is turned off, telephone numbers stay hidden on the website.
Artwork gallery images
Section titled “Artwork gallery images”Show artwork gallery images decides whether additional artwork images appear below the main image on artwork pages.
This is useful when you want to show:
- details
- close-ups
- framed views
- installation views
- process photos
If this is turned off, only the main artwork image is shown.
Legal notice
Section titled “Legal notice”Show legal notice adds a Legal notice link to the website footer.
When you turn it on, you can also fill in the legal notice text in the editor below the switch.
The legal notice content can include normal text, headings, lists, and links.
If the switch is turned off, the legal notice page does not appear in the footer.
What is always there
Section titled “What is always there”Some parts of the website are not controlled by these switches.
For example:
- the main navigation with
Works,Exhibitions, andAbout - the
Privacy policylink in the footer - the main content you chose to show from artworks, exhibitions, categories, and profile
If you want to change that content itself, see Controlling website content from other pages.
