Behind the Scenes at Sitevision 2024: Building a Website That Stands Out

This year, we had the fortune to attend Sitevision 2024 – an event where we, alongside other enthusiastic developers and designers, delved into the magic of web development. As software developers with a particular eye for Sitevision, the presentation "Understand Your Website" was something of a goldmine of inspiration and insights. Here, we share our thoughts and new knowledge from this session, with plenty of tips and tricks to help you elevate your own website to the next level.

The building blocks of a website: the foundation for a strong user experience

Initially, we got a behind-the-scenes tour where Sitevision’s trainer, David, demonstrated how a website is built from the ground up. It wasn’t just a lesson in colors and modules, but a reminder that everything from color palette to layout settings truly impacts the overall impression. With Sitevision’s powerful tools, you can easily define website colors—that is, the palette that links to everything from headers to text modules. Having this in place ensures that the entire site communicates a consistent brand identity. And we can confirm that when the visual unity is there, the website feels both professional and authentic.

Theme: the freedom to customize – and customize again

What really grabbed us was theme management. With Sitevision, you can quickly create a theme that can be applied to the entire website or just specific pages—perfect if you want to build a campaign page with unique colors and style. David showed how you can play with color and typography, changing details like the header background or section layout. But here’s the best part: You can export your theme, share it with others on the team, and use it as a template for future projects. Flexibility, we say!

CSS - the beauty is in the details

A website is often like a painting: the foundation can be solid, but it’s the details that make it come alive. Here, CSS is a real lifesaver. With CSS rules, you can go in and adjust specific elements on the page—from color to borders and rounded corners. This way, you can put your personal touch on the layout and create something unique. David went through how to link CSS files to specific modules and styles in Sitevision, which means that as a developer, you have full control over every little detail. For us, this is essential, but seeing David demonstrate the possibilities step by step made us even more excited about CSS and its endless potential.

Smarter workflows for website managers

David also shared tips for quickly finding and changing templates and themes, something that many website managers surely appreciated. By using features like “Go to template” and right-click menus to navigate between settings, you can quickly access the parts that control the appearance. This speed can be the difference between a frustrating workday and a productive one!

Our conclusions – and what we take with us

This session showed us that a well-thought-out website not only looks good but also provides a fantastic user experience and is flexible enough to grow with the organization’s needs.
