How To Use

We are assuming that you already know how to login, install and activate a WordPress plugin. If you do not please review the official WordPress site for extensive documentation.

Let’s get started.

Once logged in and with plugin activated you will see a new section like:

Permalinks

Setup Your Permalinks

We highly recommend you change this setting BEFORE creating any new pages or offers. It is best if you make your decision now and stick with it.

Keep in mind that once you setup your Cash-O-Matic permalinks and search engines index your pages, changing permalinks at later dates is bad business… Basically you will end up with search engines and even worse, visitors experiencing 404 errors.

To setup your permalinks:

In above example, you would have a URL like:

http://<yourdomain>/offers/<pagename>

The Pages Section

Create New Page

To take advantage of this template’s design, use the Styles gallery on the Home tab.

To add a new page, hover your cursor to the plugin’s menu item from the left admin panel then click Add New Page.

Once you clicked the “add new page” this screen will appear:

Ø Page Name. Supply a unique name for your new page to easily distinguish it from the rest of your pages and make it easier to find at later dates.

Ø Permalink. This field determines the structure of your page’s link. If you skip filling out this field the system will automatically generate a permalink based on the page name you provided.

Ø Status. Choose whether you would like the page to be live by switching the switch to Publish or temporarily save it as Draft while you are still editing it.

Ø Restricted User. This switch determines if the page will exclusively be available to logged in users of your site by selecting On. By default, this switch is set to Off so it is accessible to all visitors of your site. Note that this option is not available in the lite version of the plugin.

Ø Offers Per Page. Input a numerical value (2, 10, 20, etc.) for number of offers you wish to be displayed on your page.

After you have reviewed and are happy with your page settings, click “Add Your Page” to save and you can further customize it.

Once your page has been added, you will be redirected to the page’s edit section where you can customize and manage it.

Customize Your Pages

Before you start your new page customization, keep in mind many of the options are optional. Meaning that you do not have to touch every setting for your page to function.

At very first look you may think it is over whelming but in fact it is very simple. With very little input you can have very nice looking pages. Most of the settings are for those that “must” match their current site look and feel.

Recommend you tweak your page design with minimal features and then come back to spend time deeply customizing it.

Let’s start with the Header and Footer…

Remember: You can always come back and customize your pages after adding your offers.
