Previewing Websites
When creating websites, it is useful to view the site you are working on in a separate browser window, so that you can toggle between Certain and the website preview.
You can view the effect of changes to website settings immediately.
There are three ways to preview a website: 1. Click the Preview button at the bottom left of any page inside the Web Sites tab. 2. On the Websites page, click the name of the site in the list of websites. 3. On the Setup page, when creating or editing a website, click the URL in the Web Site Details section.
After making changes to website settings in Certain, if the preview is open in a separate window rather than a separate tab you can toggle back to the preview by using the ALT-TAB key combination on your keyboard.
Once you see the website preview window, you'll need to refresh the browser.
For example, refresh the browser by pressing F5 key or clicking the Refresh button in the browser.
