Anytime you place a text-body on your website, LiveEdit™ automatically attaches the "Default" Content Style (located in the Style Editor) to it. To change the Default font for bodies of text on your LiveEdit™ website, you can edit the "Default" Content Style in the Style Editor by performing the following steps:

1. From the LiveEdit™ Dashboard, click Style Editor.


2. In the Style Editor, find Content Layouts.


3. Under Content Layouts, click the Default layout.


4. In the style-editing body, you'll find the following CSS code:
   
   
   
   /****************************************/
   
   /***** Default (CSS) Style Settings *****/
   
   /****************************************/
   
   .thisStyle { }
   
   
   
   /***** Default - Text Body *****/
   
   .thisStyle_body {
   
   
   
   /** Font **/
   
   font-family:
   
   
   
   }
   
   
   
   


5. The CSS tag "font-family:" defines the font used within the "Default" content style. Define "font-family:" with any of the following values:
   
   
   
   • Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
   
   
   • "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
   
   
   • "Courier New", Courier, monospace;
   
   
   • Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
   
   
   • Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
   
   
   • Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
     
     Note: The above values are standard fonts supported by the most curent web browsers. You can define "font-family:" with other fonts; however, you run the risk of the browser your site visitor is using not supporting the font and therefore not displaying properly.
   
   
   
   


6. Click Save


7. Click View Website on the LiveEdit™ Tool Bar.
   
   
   
   All text bodies using the "Default" Content Style should display in the font that you defined.

St. Cloud, MN (May 1, 2008) - Smart Site, LLC announced today that it has hired a new president and secured an impressive partnership group that will help take the Internet development company nationwide. Bill Sexton, an owner of the Minnesota Timberwolves, is among Smart Site's dream team. The partners also include Rob Weber and Ryan Weber, founders of Freeze.com; Brian Schoenborn and Aaron Crandall, partners at Leonard, Street & Deinard; and Gene Schreder, former owner of UniqueScreen Media. The group will provide financial support and expertise, particularly around strategic positioning. "I could not have asked for a better group of business people," Smart Site Founder and CEO Eric Brown says. "This truly is the dream team that is taking Smart Site to higher heights and positioning the company to have a substantial impact in the region and nationwide." Schreder, 41, also has joined Smart Site as president. Schreder came on board to develop a national sales distribution channel that will propel Smart Site to the national playing field. Schreder brings extensive business ownership and growth expertise to Smart Site. Schreder mostly recently bought and grew Unique Screen Media. Schreder and two employees served five clients in Minnesota, South Dakota and Wisconsin when he bought the company in 1997. In less than a decade, Schreder grew Unique Screen Media into a multi-million dollar enterprise that distributed its product in 38 states and employed more than 100 employees. Schreder sold the company in 2007 to AccessIT. "Gene brings the skills and experience we need to strategically launch Smart Site's innovative product line nationwide," Brown says. As CEO, Brown will focus on product development, and long-term company visioning and planning. Eric Brown introduced a cutting edge content management system to the website development industry in 2003 when he started Smart Site Inc. As CEO, he led the development of the Waite Park-based company's latest solution, LiveEdit™, which allows customers to make their websites more fluid, and update information as it becomes relevant with ultra intuitive web-based tools.
