We have completely revamped the look and feel of the admin and internal pages with a more pleasing and appealing colors. We have also optimized the entire site to load faster even in slower internet connections.

Redesigned Profile Page

Redesigned Admin Page

If you had visited Sweetcircles.com recently, you would have noticed that the home page has been completely redesigned. Striking colors and more pleasing designs are what you see now. You’ll be surprised by the additions we’ve made. We’ve included ‘Games‘ to refresh you and you needn’t even login to start playing them. There is the colorful ‘Seasonal Bar‘ on the top, which changes periodically to mark the onset of different seasons like Christmas, New Year etc. Now the home page will display only the list of ‘Recently Featured Blogs’. Check it out and drop in your comments.

Designs form the most important part of your blog. Having regard to the diverse tastes and preference of users, we have plenty of designs for you to choose from.

For your convenience, now we have classified the themes into two broad categories – ‘Simple Themes’ and ‘Rich & Colorful Themes’.

Under the ‘Simple Themes’ we have added fresh 26 simple new designs. To integrate a more sober appearance to your blog, you can look up the Simple category. Rich & Colorful themes, on the contrary, are capable of imparting a richer look to your blog.

If you have lately logged on to our site, you would have noticed some changes in your Profile page. We have opted for this new style to help you navigate with the options more easily and quickly. Once you’re logged in, you’ll observe that there’s just one section ‘ Your Blogs.’

You might wonder where the other sections have gone. It’s all there appearing as links at the Top Right corner. By clicking on each of these links, you can get to the respective sections.

Next, you will find the ‘Set Default Page’ option on top of your profile page; it helps you to set the default page you would to go immediately when you login.

Suppose you want to go directly to your ‘New Post’ page immediately after you login, without going to the ‘Profile’ page, you can set the default page option to the ‘Your Blog Name : Post Page‘. This will directly take you to your blog’s new post page immediately after you login without going to ‘Profile‘ page.

That’s not all; just move your cursor to the different links: New Post, Comments, Design, Widgets, Forum and Preference. A drop down under each category shows up; for example when you move your cursor to the ‘New Post’ option you will also find more options like ‘Edit Post’, ‘Edit Draft’, ‘Create Tags’.

This saves your time and reduces those unnecessary clicks. If you need to customize your design, you can directly click on ‘Customize Design‘ under the ‘Design‘ tab rather than go through a series of steps that entails a cumbersome task.

This new Profile navigation will help you get blogging done faster.
