Page Properties options
The Properties sub-tab on Page Details allows you to change the properties of the page such as its background image and colour or even various external scripts you may wish to apply to the page.

Setting the background for the Page
An EROL page can have either a background colour, or a background image assigned to it.

To display a background image on your page,
1. Select the relevant store page in the Tree View of Store Pages
2. Flip to the Properties sub-tab
3. From the dropdown menus, browse for your pre-design background image by clicking the Browse button next to the 'Page Background Image' field.

To display a particular colour for the background of your page, select a hue from the colour pulldown menu or colour picker.

Adding Scripts to your page
You can add any of your own JavaScript, Visual Basic as well as set CSS styles and create Meta Tags for your EROL page using the Script sub-tabs on the Properties sub-tab.

Applying Meta Tags to your page
EROL provides you with the ability to add two types of Meta Tags and a Title to each individual page. These Meta Tags are: Description and Keywords.

Meta tags can assist in bettering your store's position in the search engines.

1. Select the relevant page from the Tree View
2. Flip to the Properties sub-tab

5. In the Keywords Field, type in as many keywords as you feel necessary. It is not advisable to insert keywords that are not relevant to the page in question as this can have adverse effects on your Page's relevancy. Remember to comma separate your keywords.
6. If you wish to include the Item Names of every product on that page, check 'Include Item Names'
