Hello Rimantas,
There are several solutions. One is to create the 3 project on different folders on the server or different domains, after you create a 4th project in which you use the homepage or intro page where you put the links to these 3 projects.
If you choose the intro page then you need to write the links in html code.

It's a problem, that the home page show buttons (home page button). I can't find how to swich it off.
Hello Rimantas,
It's not a problem to have buttons in the homepage.
What you want to switch off?

If in home page I put 3 linked images, then the "Homepage" button is unwanted. How to swich it off?

Or I need 3 defaul buttons, but forth "home" button ir unwanted. And it's impossible to delete "home page" in Sitemap Creation menu.
Hello Rimantas,
To simplify all you can activate in one of the 3 projects the Wellcome Page in Menu 4 and in this one you insert the links to the 2 other projects.
Please feel free to write back if you need more information.

Hello,
I can't find how to edit the welcome page. It shows only Options of welcome page. And there are mandatory field of picture file, but I don't need it.

About "homepage" button:
Hello rimantas in Step 4 - Welcome Page - you find the options to choose the background and the content type. If you choose as content type HTML you will be able to add all contents you like with html code.
You can choose as mandatory image the logo of the website.
Hope this helps.

ProbablyI will need to use NVU to create this page :(
There some required functions for X5:
1. Possibility to create a separate page.
2. Possibility to see HTML code of selected page element.

One more question, how to change button link? Now button links are to pages, but how to do buton link to another project?
Hello Rimantas,
If you use the welcome page you will see on the right that you can create the site with more languages. If you edit the link to the language and you add a button you can also set an URL to another website.
For the menu buttons you can add a level where you can choose to have a custom link and if you want to deactivate the menu completely set the pages to invisible in Step 2.
hope this helps.

Hello Claudio, thank You,
but how to set up pages to invisible in Step2? A can only remove the name of page, but empty button is still visible.
At the moment I have done that in Step4/main menu, and changed button colors to "invisible", but I think is not normal to have ghost buttons in page :)
And then I put linked text in header, but buttons are simply, without "mouse ovr".
Please look at www.lekis.lt
It would be better to use buttons for this.
Hello Rimantas,
You can make page invisible in the menu by selecting the page and then in the top menu clickning the icon visible in the picture I attached.
Many thanks!
