Create a Site

Create a site from My Sites: blank site, import package, or clone an existing site.

Prerequisite

Complete Login and site list first. If you start site creation while you are inside a folder, the new site is added to that folder automatically.

Open the Creation Flow

  1. From My Sites, click Create Site.
  2. The URL changes to /_Admin/create.
  3. The left side shows the form for the current creation mode, and the right side shows the list of alternative creation modes.
Create site screen

Creation Modes

ModeRouteTypical use
Blank Site/_Admin/createStart from scratch with your own site name and default domain
Clone Site/_Admin/create/cloneCopy an existing site or clone from a remote source
Import Site/_Admin/create/importUpload a Kooboo site package or a standard HTML package
Pick TemplateRedirects to the template marketplaceCreate from an existing template

Blank Site

Blank site creation is the default mode.

  1. Enter the Site Name.
  2. Enter the Domain: subdomain plus the platform-provided root domain.
  3. Click Start Creating.
  4. After creation finishes, return to My Sites and click Manage on the new site.

TIP

Creating a blank site does not automatically open the site admin. Enter the site from the list after creation.

Import Site

Import site flow
  1. Switch to Import Site to open /_Admin/create/import.
  2. Upload a .zip package.
  3. Depending on the package type, Kooboo imports the exported site or converts a standard HTML package into a Kooboo site.

Clone Site

Clone site flow
  1. Switch to Clone Site to open /_Admin/create/clone.
  2. Select the source site or enter the clone source required by your environment.
  3. Confirm the form to create a new copy in My Sites.

After you enter the site admin (/_Admin/site?SiteId=...), a practical order is:

  1. Site admin menu overview
  2. Content overview
  3. Template Engine
  4. API Details
