iWeb Icon

If you can’t modify an object

There are several reasons you might be unable to modify or delete a text box or object on a webpage.

Here are some possible reasons:

  • These buttons can’t be modified: Email Me, Start Slideshow, Subscribe, and “Made on a Mac.”

    You can, however, move or delete them.

  • If you can’t select an object, you may need to move it forward or backward in the layers of objects on the page.

  • Some objects and text boxes can’t be deleted or moved between the regions of a webpage.

  • The formatting of the navigation menu, which iWeb generates as you add pages to your site, can’t be changed, and the links in the menu can’t be moved on the webpage.

    You can hide the generated navigation menu, however, and create your own using text hyperlinks.
