How to Install & Configure Your SSL Sales

Website Through WPGateway

WPGateway's Simple Yet Powerful Master Dashboard Lets You Easily and Quickly Manage All

Your Sites From a Single, Central Location, whether those domains are hosted on WPGateway's

high-speed Amazon servers, or whether they are simply managed by WPGateway and hosted

elsewhere.

No matter where you host your domains, WPGateway will save you a lot of time and effort and be one

of the most valuable resources you have for managing your domains. A typical WordPress installation

takes quite a bit of time and involves a lot of different steps when done without WPGateway.

With WPGateway, installation is so easy that anyone can successfully install a website on their

domain in a couple of minutes -- even if they have never installed a website before!

To Install a Website on Any Domain Hosted or Managed by

WPGateway

1. Click Install to begin the installation process, either from the top menu or from the

Install button on the main domains dashboard.


Understanding Where on the Domain to Install Your Website

Any domain can have multiple websites installed on it. So when you install a website, you

need to define where within that domain that you want to install that specific website.

1. As a basic rule, the main business installation should always be installed in the

main part of the domain.

2. A Sub Domain is considered to be a unique website. This means that it is going to

take a lot more work on your part to get it to rank well in the search engines. It also

means that it will use one of the alloted number of domains in your WPGateway

plan. If your website needs to have the same content but be available in more than

one language, this would be a good use of a Sub Domain. You could use

fr.mydomain.comfor the French version of your website or maybe es.mydomain.com for

the Spanish version of your website..

3. A Sub Directory (also referred to as a Directory during the installation process) are

extremely useful for organization of your website. They can be used to develop

different categories of information related to your website, or for different

departments, or different demos of what you offer. Basically, the sky is the limit for

what you can use Sub Directories for. Since they are considered to be part of the

original directory, they have no effect on your WPGateway hosting or management

plan.


Select the Cpanel Which Has Your Domain

1. Click the Cpanel drop-down and select where your domain is located.

Select the Domain Where You Want to Install the Website

2. Select the domain name from the drop-down list.


Select to Install the Website on the Main Domain

3. The main domain is where we want to do this install, because it is for the main

business website.

4. Do not select any Directory (also known as a Sub Directory) if you are installing in

the main folder. In my case I am installing the SSL sales site into a sub folder because I

have a businss website in my main folder. There is no "correct" answer. Just set it up

the way that works best for your own needs. I chose a new directory.

5. Give the directory a name

6. Select what you want to install. Different fields will display depending on which

option you select.

The Local Theme Jack option will install the standard version of one of the local

niche themes.

The Drag & Drop option will install the new, drag-and-drop version of one of the

local niche themes. This option is the recommended option since it allows you to

almost instantly install any one of over 200 local niche themes that are content-

ready and very easy to simply add your business information to. And since it is

drag-and-drop, it is very easy to modify as well. For the SSL Solutions sales

website, choose Drag & Drop


The Standard Wordpress Theme option will let you easily do a basic Wordpress

install. Select this option if you plan to install a Wordpress theme which is not

one of the ones available through either of the other two options.

NOTE: The first two options require you to have a Local Theme Jack license in

order to install one of the conten-ready local niche themes. The Standard

Wordpress Install option does not require a license. If you are not sure whether you

have a valid license, just continue the installation process and it will check for you.

If you need to, you can always return to this Need License link and get a license.


Define the Rest of the Installation Settings

7. Select Drag & Drop installation because we are going to install WordPress AND at

the same time, also install one of the top quality business themes already available.

At this point, a lot more fields will display, asking you to provide some basic

information about you and about your website.


8. Enter the Admin Email Address that you want to use.

9. Enter the Admin Username that you want to log in with. Make sure it is not too

obvious. Do NOT use the word admin

10. Enter the Admin Password that you want to log in with. Make sure it is not too

obvious or too easy to guess. Do NOT use the word password.

11. Enter your First Name

12. Enter your Last Name

13. Enter the Wordpress Title for your website. This will display to your visitors. It can

be changed later.

14. Leave this option selected so an email is sent to the Admin E-Mail Address with

the Wordpress admin login details.

15. Enter your License Email for the local niche themes.


How to Check for a Valid License

1. If you enter an invalidLicense Email and then click the Install Theme button, you

will see the error page.

2. A dialog will display saying License key not verified. Click OK to close the dialog.

3. When the dialog with the error message has been closed, click the Need License?

link to obtain a valid license email so you can continue the process of installing the

business niche theme on your website.


Search for SSL niche salespage

Now that the typical Admin information has been provided, it is time to select which theme

you want to install.

1. Enter SSL in the search box to search for the theme SSL Solutions since this is going to

be the focus of your business (with this tutorial).

2. Click the Magnifying glass icon to trigger the search.


Successful Installation

When the installation has successfully completed, you will see a screen similar to this.


Although you can access the site and the login from the links on this page, it is much easier

to go back to the main dashboard by clicking on the Domains menu item, because from

there you have access to the one-click login link which does not require you to manually

enter the username or password.

1. Click Domains to return to the main dashboard after the installation is successful.

Click the Domain to View the Website

Click on the website link to display your newly installed website.


Your Business Website is Installed and Ready for Your

Personalization

You now have a beautiful business website installed and ready for you to customize it with

your own company information.


Easily Log in to Your Website Admin from the WPGateway

Dashboard

1. Click Domains in the menu to display your main dashboard.

2. Click the + (PLUS) symbok in the Login/Users column next to the domain you want to

log in to the admin area for, so you can customize the installation for your own business.


3. The + (PLUS) symbol will change to a - (Minus) symbol and a new section will display,

giving you admin access to the wordpress installation for your website. You will see the

login address, and the username and password will also display.

4. Click the Login link to instantly be logged in without having to manually enter the login

information. This makes it so much easier to log in to your various websites.


Be Sure to Add SSL to your SSL Solutions Sales Website

1. In the SSL main menu, select SSL from the drop-down

2. If the domain is hosted or managed by WPGateway, select it in the SelectSource Cpanel

and in Source Domain, then click Buy SSL.

3. if the domain is not hosted or managed by WPGateway, click the Add New button in

the upper right and to display additional fields where you can enter the cpanel information

needed for WPGateway to be able to automatically install the SSL certificate.

In this illustration, my site is hosted at WPGateway so I will use option 2 with the Buy SSL

button


Confirm you want to add SSL certificate at the stated price

Confirm the details then click Order SSL

1. Verify the domain to get the SSL certificate

2. Verify the price and lenght of time is accurate

3. Click the Order SSL button


Successful SSL Order & Automatic Installation of the SSL

Certificate

Success! SSL Certificate activation has been initiated for localspecials.biz, Installation goes

automatically. No Action needed. The second message from WPGateWay is to let you

know that the SSL installation is complete.

1. When the purchase is successful, WPGateway automatically installs the SSL certificate.

At this point, servers all over the internet are being informed about the change and they are

starting to update the information they have for your site. It could take as short as 15

minutes before you can see the change to ssl, or it may take a few hours longer.


Padlock now displays next to the domain URL (It was about 45

minutes before I could see the SSL padlock)


The Sales Process needs to be completed


Set up one or more payment gateways


To set up the SSL product, choose SSL > Products.

Click SSL > Products to access the link to your SSL product

Click to Edit the SSL product

Click either link to edit the SSL product


Set Up Your SSL Product (Price etc)

1. Enter the full url where you want to redirect the buyer after they have completed their

purchase. They will have already provided the domain name and the cpanel access

information, and their SSL certificate will have been installed (but probably won't be

visible for maybe an hour or more). So this Redirect URL can be a simple page with

information, or a sales page with another offer, or anything you want. I am going to do a

simple thank you page for now. Notice that I am using my secure https:// address.


2. Select the payment gateway you want to use. You may select as many payment

gateways as you have set up in Account > Payment Gateway (which goes to the same

page as SSL > Payment Gateway). When there are multiple ones available, the buyer

can choose which he would like to use.

3. Define the product price and whether it is recurring or not.

These last three are optional settings. Click Submit to save your product settings.

Detailed Notes on How to Edit the "Contact Us" Form

The Contact Us form used in this theme needs to be configured only ONCE because even

though there is a Contact Us form on every page of the website, it is the same form because

it simply reflects a master form. All the settings are taken from the master, and each copy is

still linked to the master.

That means that you only need to set up the MASTER form and all of the copies made

from that master will instantly reflect any changes made to the master.

Before lanching your new website, you need to make sure that your master form is properly

configured to send the contact requests to your email address. You also need to decide if

you want the person submitting the form to get an emailed response back, or if you simply

want a success message to display on screen when they successfully submit the form.

If you have an account at CallCID.com or TheCallPortal.com then you absolutely want to

link that account to this theme install so that you can set up an amazing Instant Connect

Email to receive these forms when they are submitted, so that you can instantly get notified

by phone when a form is submitted (and then all you need to do is to press 1 and you can

instantly be connected with the person who just submitted that form).

This allows you to capitalize on the most effective time to contact a prospect. Studies have

shown that the first 5 minutes are vital to get back to the person who has submitted a

contact form online, and after that your chances of closing the deal plummet.

Edit the Master Form used in this theme ("Form 1 - Contact Us")

Click Theme Jack Biz then click the Forms tab. This will display all the master forms

currently in the theme. In this case there is only one form so far, and this form is the one

used throughout the site for this specific theme.

Click the PLUS (+) next to Form 1 - Contact Us so you can edit the form.

Set up the Welcome Email that the Visitor receives after submitting the

form


Set up the Email that YOU receive when form is submitted


(Sidenote TIP: How to insert a contact form based on a master form)

This is just a general tip about inserting forms, since it is easy to make this much harder on

yourself than it needs to be.

You can insert a new contact form (which needs to be configured each time) or you can

insert a copy of a master form (which means that you only need to set it up once and then

you can use it anywhere you want on your site.)

Even if you do want to use different forms on the same site (such as Contact Us, or

Schedule an Appointment, etc) then it is still practical to create them in the admin Forms

area for the theme and simply place each form on whichever pages you want. Otherwise it is

too easy to create a new form on one of your pages and forget to customize its settings.

So when you are in the Select Module area and you choose Contact Form, the Contact

Form Setting box will appear. Typically it defaults to Create a new form but that creates a


standalone form not linked to a master. Instead, select Use General Forms and then your

master forms will be available in the drop-down list. Simply select the one you want to

insert and save all the way out (including updating your page)


Instant Connect Email

You absolutely want to use this option. It is available only to those who have a

CallCID.com account or TheCallPortal.com account.

If you do not already have one of those accounts, you will want to get one so that you

can take advantage of this very powerful option.

This one tool can give you 10 times the chance of closing the deal with a visitor who

submits your online form.

Update Your Terms of Service Page

Terms of Service Page


https://termsofusegenerator.net/



Does Your Website Really Need a Terms Page?

Yes, you do need a Terms of Service (TOS) page in order to protect your business. This is

important for any website, but it is especially true for any website that is involved in

ecommerce. For a more detailed explanation as to why you need to have a TOS page, read

this article.

What is the Difference Between "Terms of Service" and "Terms

of Use"?

According to Richard Chapo, a terms and conditions lawyer, there really is no difference. He

provides a simple explanation here. So it is up to you whether you call your page Terms of

Service or Terms of Use or Terms and Conditions.

No matter what you choose to call it, you need to have one in order to protect you from

lawsuits.

How to Get a Terms of Service (TOS) Document

There is a wide range of ways you can get a Terms of Service policy created, from hiring an

attorney to draw one up, to using a free wordpress plugin or generating your own document

for free by going to a website created specifically for that purpose.

What you choose to do is up to you. We are simply going to show you how to create a

Terms document by using TermsofUseGenerator.net -- a free website designed specifically

to help anyone generate a terms policy for their own website.

Step 1: Insert Data Into Your Policy

EXPERT TIP: Use Shortcodes to Dynamically Update Contact

Info on Your Terms Page


In the Admin Dashboard, go to Theme Jack Biz > Contact. You can see the shortcodes

which correspond to each of the fields and you can edit the contact information if you wish.

TIP: Use the SHORTCODES as placeholders in your master TERMS document. They will

always display the current contents of their corresponding fields so any change to contact

info will instantly update on the TOS page.

BONUS TIP: When you use shortcodes instead of hard coding the contact info, you can

use your same TERMS content on all your Local Theme Jack nichewebsites and the

contact info will always match the current website's contact settings. You only need to

adjust the terms if needed but the contact info will reflect the info saved on this contact

information page in the theme settings.

So you can use the same content for any Local Theme Jack niche website you create, either

for yourself or for any of your customers. All you need to do is to make sure that their

contact info is correct in the Contact Information settings page, and the contact information

on the Terms page will match.


Where to Find the List of Shortcodes in Theme Jack Admin

Settings

In the Admin Dashboard, go to Theme Jack Biz > Shortcodes to display the list of

shortcodes available (the General Shortcodes List). You also have the ability to create your

own CUSTOM shortcodes on this page. But for the Terms document, all you need are some

of the general shortcodes built into the program. (See the next image for details).

Which Shortcodes Should You Use?


Insert the Shortcodes into the Data Fields in the Terms of Use

Generator


Step 2: Set Additional Options


Select the Addional Options You Want, Then Click Next


Step 3: You are DONE! Copy or Download the Terms Policy so

You Can add it to YOUR Terms Page

Make Any Changes Using Your Document Editing Program


Use your preferred document editor to make any changes you want to the Terms document

before you add it to your website Terms page. Read the text carefully to make sure that it

says what you want it to say, and change anything that is incorrect.

You can also make any formatting changes if you wish. Personally, i like to find and format

all of my shortcodes so I can quickly see them in the master document, and also so I will be

able to find and check them on the Terms page to make sure that they are updating

properly.


On my master document in MS Word, I will typically make my shortcodes bold because

that formatting will copy along with the document when I copy and paste it into the terms

module, making it easy for me to see. Use whatever works best for you.

After you have checked the results and made sure the contact information is being reflected

accurately on the Terms page, you can easily change the format of the shortcodes if you

wish.

Select the Entire Contents of Your Terms Document and Copy It

to Clipboard


Select Your Terms of Service Page So You Can Update It With

Your New Policy


Click the GEAR Icon on the Text Module to Edit That Module


PASTE the contents of the Terms Policy


Always Check Other Settings Which Affect the Display of this

Content


Always scroll down and check the other settings available within the module. There may be

settings which are important.

For example, in the Terms module, the Text Color may be set to WHITE. If the font color

is white and the background is white, then the page will appear to be blank even when it is

not. Make sure that the text color is changed to something that will show against the

background color. Set the font color you want, then click SAVE to save the changes to your

module.

Click UPDATE to Apply the Changes to the Page
