Website Tags

When editing the text on your website, there are special tags that you can include that will pull information right from your boomtime account - how easy is that?

We use a little word processing plug-in to help with the formatting of your site - if you're familiar with Microsoft Word or things like it, you should be just fine.  If you'd like to see what it looks like anyway, here's a nifty little tutorial out on the web:  http://www.unitedboinc.com/en/how-to-use-tinymce-wysiwyg-article-editor

Email Tags

It's important to include email addresses in a special way on websites to avoid spammers scraping 'em up. The email tags do exactly that:

{email}
Includes your email address as a "Email" link, and would return "".

{email_address}
Your email address, using your email address as the link. This isn't as safe a method to avoid spam.

{java_mail('info@example.com', 'Email us', 'Send an email to us')}
Creates a link called "Email us" to "info@example.com" with hover text of "Send an email to us".

Misc Tags

boomtime="photo_left" in a <div> tag, helps setup the "photo icon" within the Dynamic Website editor. Example:

<div boomtime="photo_left" id="photo_1" max_width="455"><img src="https://fuse.boomtime.com/img/place_holder.jpg" width="455" height="300" class="photo"></div>

The above is the line used to have a default picture show on the homepage of our boxy template, and includes the proper tags for the "photo icon" in the Dynamic Website editor.
