A Guide to Store Set Up on PUBNiTO

Setting Up Your Bookstore

Introduction

Congratulations on creating your PUBNiTO store. Once you have created your digital publishing platform, you see the setup of your store. This three-step process, or wizard, ensures that your platform is not only functional but also tailored to your store's identity and branding. In this guide, to simplify this process, we will walk you through each step.


Step 1: General Information

The first phase of setting up your store is providing general information. This is what you need to do:


Site Title: Enter your platform’s title. This is the title users will see and associate with your store.

Note: The name displayed here is the one you entered during store creation which you can modify here.

Site Description: Briefly explain what your platform is all about. This summary gives users a quick overview, enticing them to explore further.



Terms of Service (Optional): If applicable, you can include the Terms of Service document that outlines the rules and expectations for platform usage. It helps create a fair environment for all users and offers legal protection.



Copyright (Optional): Add copyright information to protect your content or indicate ownership.



Time Zone: Choose a time zone that aligns with your target audience. This choice ensures that the time of recorded activities and reports within your platform is based on the selected time zone.

Step 2: Setup Logos

The visual identity of your platform is crucial for making a lasting impression. In this step, you will upload your brand’s logo. Here is what you need to do:


Logo: Upload your main logo in the recommended formats: .jpeg, .jpg, .png, and .svg. Ensure it has an aspect ratio of 25:6, a maximum size of 800x800 pixels, and a file size under 200 KB.


Footer Logo: Upload a footer logo, following the same format recommendations as above. Ensure it has an aspect ratio of 1:2, a maximum size of 800x800 pixels, and a file size under 200 KB.


Favicon: Enhance your platform's identity with a favicon. Accepted formats include .ico and .png, with a recommended aspect ratio of 1:1, a maximum size of 228x228 pixels, and a file size under 50 KB.


Note: Logo settings are not mandatory, and you can skip this step. You can configure logo-related settings in the admin console.

Click on the Next button. 

Step 3: Store Theme

To provide your readers with an engaging experience, select a theme for your platform. Once you have chosen your theme, simply click on Done to finalize your store setup. After taking this step, you will enter the Administrator Console.
