- From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Sites, and then select Sites.
- Enable Salesforce Sites.
- Create and configure your site.
- Develop and use Visualforce pages for your site, use or hide standard pages, and customize or replace out-of-box error pages. Associate these pages with your site.
- Choose a site template. Use the lookup field to find a template that you developed, or use the provided template. The site template provides the page layout and style sheet for your site and overrides any formatting inherited from the associated portal.
- Enable a portal for login or self-registration, then associate it with your site.
- Optionally, modify public access settings.
- When you’re ready to make your site public, click Activate on the Site Details page. You can also activate your site from the Site Edit and Sites pages.
After you have set up a site, you can:
- Run reports and dashboards on your site.
- Create workflow rules that trigger email alerts when site-related criteria are met.
- Create and Edit Salesforce Sites
After you enable Salesforce Sites, create a Salesforce Site. Or, update an existing site. - Configure Salesforce Sites
After you create your site, configure public access and login settings, then activate the site. Optionally, you can also create a syndication feed for your site, and assign error pages for standard errors. - Use Administrator Preview Mode to Troubleshoot Salesforce Sites
If you see errors on site pages and you can't determine the cause, use administrator preview mode to look at them in context and in greater detail.
