Width of page in Adobe Muse

I have started a website for an art group I belong to. It has been a win-win situation, as I'm practicing and feeling very confident that I can manage a nice site with Muse, the group are very happy with the site, and impressed with my ability.  It's been great- Thank you Muse Team!
Here is a link: Please feel free to take a look and offer suggestions.

But I have a question about the ideal width of the page size. At an Adobe Creative Event, Terry White, said that it is best to stick with the default size of the web page, so I did that which is 960.  When I view the page on my Macbook Pro, it seems like it could be a lot wider. I'm guessing that is because my display is set to 1440 x 900.  So I'm wondering if any of you ever make pages any wider than 960, or can I up the size a little, say to 1100 or so?  What about tablets and phones?
I would like to put more art on the member's gallery page, perhaps change the page size to 1200 wide and put 3 drawings across. Will that work or will it cause a lot of viewrs to do a lot of scrolling side to side

That's a nice looking site, Elaine. Well done.
This link may help you decide to widen your website a bit:

It clearly shows the trends to larger monitors. That being said, you definitely don't want people encountering horizontal scroll bars when they come to your site. I would say you could safely expand to 1024 or possibly 1200 to accomodate members' artwork.
A suggestion for you...when you go to the Gallery page and click on the various members' names, it scrolls down nicely to their respective part of the gallery. But then you have to manually scroll up or down. You can make the menu of members' names "sticky" so that it stays with the viewer as they scroll. They can then easily move to different parts of the page without all the scrolling.
For a small example of that see this prototype page I'm working on:

Unfortunately, I'm not at home right now and can't remember the exact terminology of what that's called or how to accomplish that. When I get home later today I can follow up here with instructions if someone else hasn't.
Hope that helps!

  • How can I create a full page on Adobe Muse (without side space)?

    How can I create a full page with Adobe Muse (without side space)?

    Muse uses Fixed width Layouts so that is not 100% possible. You can extend images and box elements to full width but not actual content.

  • Separate page in Adobe Muse, not linked to Menu

    I want to create a Sitemap page in Adobe Muse which i do not want to link to navigation menu. I tried adding main or child page, but it automatically links to navigation menu.

    Hi
    You can use "Exclude Page From Menus" under Menu options.
    In plan mode , left click on the page will give you the Menu options.

  • How do I correctly update images on my Gallery page in Adobe Muse 2011-2013?

    I am trying to update images on my Gallery page  at: www.glennmcfall.com. When I add new images those new images are not active. When I click on the thumbnail (when I use Preview Page in Browser) the slideshow image appears , when I click on that image a larger image or video should appear but doesn't. I noticed when an image is active an image of a hand appears when hovering over the art/photo/video but this hand does not appear when I am trying to access the largest image. What do I need to do to correct this? I am using Adobe Muse 2011-2013 version.

    Hi
    Can you provide steps to follow for replication ?
    I checked the site , but which thumbnails exactly shows this behavior etc ?
    Thanks,

  • How to automatically scroll continuously to the next page in adobe muse?

    Im building a site which was orginally going to be a one page scroll site but I now what to place the different sections on individual pages to allow easier editing of content. I still want the site look as if it is a continusly scrolling one page site. What I was hoping to do is that when the viewer comes to the end of a section they can continue to scroll down but for it to link to another page, I thought this may be done using anchor points in some way. Any help greatly apprciated! Thanks

    Yes ...
    You need what is called a 'Snap Scroll'  widget ... these widgets use the anchor points as a brake to stop right where they are while swiping or scrolling ... it won't continue down the page until your swipe or scroll again ... it will do this for all anchor points on the page ...
    MuseThemes do one called exactly that ... worth buying their great set of tools for MUSE ... highly recommended ...

  • Adding web page in Adobe Muse that can be accessed from each web page

    I have a disclaimer link at the footer of each of my web pages, I want it ot be accessed from each page. Where in Adobe Muse do I insert this page?

    I'm new to Muse so two more questions for you all--
    1. How do I add a drop down menu feature to my navigation menu to show the sub navigation?
    2. How do I insert a Contact Form so that people can fill it out and send to us via email through our website?
    Thanks!

  • I would like to learn how to make an alias for my "Home" page in Adobe Muse.

    Currently, my homepage is titled "Home."  This works great in the vertical menu at the top of the main pages.  It does not, however, work well if someone wants to bookmark my site in which case their bookmark generates the generic "Home."  Can I create an alias for the home page in Muse?  If so, how?

    What exactly is your question?
    Something to do with promotion, or something about settings on your device? It's not clear what you are asking.

  • Header extends past the page in Adobe Muse after uploading to web

    Here is an example of my issue. Both are set to 100% width and both are edge to edge when i put them in...however as you can see, the header extends past the rest of the page instead of being aligned with the rest of the content.

    That's a nice looking site, Elaine. Well done.

  • How can incorporate the phone pages to sitemap.xml / Adobe Muse

    I created a web page with Adobe Muse with desk and phone plataform.  The problem I have is that the phone plataform was not included in sitemap.xml
    I need to know if I did something wrong or this could really happen as it is a new software.
    Is there any way to contact you by phone ?
    Anybody speeks spanih ?
    The main problem is that Google does not read the phone plataform as the sitemap.xml  does not make a difference between the desk and phone plataform as both have the same name in the .html code.
    I am not supposed to change any information as the pages come as default.
    my web page is: www.anazoe.cl
    HELP !!!!!!

    Url like <loc>http://www.anazoe.cl/phone/contaco-evento.html</loc> are added to your sitemap, http://www.anazoe.cl/sitemap.xml
    We generate one sitemap for whole site which includes the information about phone and tablet , it should be fine with single sitemap because Google knows that desktop pages are canonical.
    Thanks,

    Hey there,
    I was just wondering:

    E.g if I had the mainpages Home, About and Contact. About has two subpages in a submenu.
    What I want to do is if you are on one subpage of "About", the submenu of the About menu item is shown with the subpage marked as active.

  • Microsoft Publisher web page into a Muse web page?

    Any suggestions on the easiest quickest way to turn a Microsoft Publisher web page into a Muse web page?

    Hi
    Using Adobe muse you may create sites and export them as webpages locally or upload to hosting. However, I am afraid, there's no automated way to import Microsoft Publisher web pages into Adobe Muse. One alternative is place the Microsoft Publisher web page code using " Insert as HTML" and see if that helps.

  • Help: Using Adobe Muse & Business Catalyst with Google Domains: URL not mapping

    Hi,
    I've had some issues publishing my site to the internet using Adobe Muse (version CC 2014) and publishing to Adobe Business Catalyst.
    I am currently using Google Domains to host my domain name (www.mattandsangeeta.com) and have tried on multiple occasions to get the domain name to correctly map  using Adobe's Business Catalyst nameservers.
    I've verified with Google Domains that their process is setup correctly to map to my site, so it indicates the issue is on how I've configured my Adobe Muse/Business Catalyst side of things.
    So far, every attempt at publishing the site via Adobe Muse has worked with its extension at http://mattandsangeeta.businesscatalyst.com/index.html, and I'm able to login into my Admin page from Adobe Muse immediately following publishing. However, when I try to login directly to the Adobe Business Catalyst page, it takes me to an admin link for www.mattandsangeeta.com that is broken.
    To summarize: My published domain isn't being mapped correctly and I hit a dead end every time I try to login into the Business Catalyst website.
    Thanks for your feedback and support in advance,
    Matt

    Hi
    As I checked the site loads fine with domain Matt And Sangeeta . I tried to get to site manage area using Administration Login  and I see it works fine as well. I would suggest you to please try clearing browser cache and cookies and check if that helps.
