Documentation, FAQ and Video Guides:

• Here is the full documentation

The full list of features:

Drag and Drop page builder – video

Custom auto scaling content blocks – a block changes it’s structure to work perfectly (in sidebar, full widt or pages with sidebar) – sample block (scroll down to see it on all the columns)

Responsive Google AdSense support via our custom admin panel – the scripts loads a different google adsense spot for each screen size. Once it’s loaded it doesn’t modify it in order to be 100% compliant with Google adSense TOS. See it in action

Responsive ads support – for ad networks that allow multiple ad spots on the same p or if you want to show your own ads on different devices. This option will change the ad spot on the fly, for example when a tablet is changed from landscape to portrait. (the header banner from the demo site is using this sistem)

Inline Google AdSense or other ads – ads in content after a predefined number of paragraphs

Auto youtube and vimeo thumb downloader – just paste a youtube url and the site will download the largest image available from the clip automatically and it will set it as a featured image. Very easy to add videos to articles.

Built in review system (stars, percents, points)
