Login windows are never exciting, but they are also a pain when your visitors can’t find them on the page or they hog space.

EZGenerator 4 allows a ‘Float login bar’ placed at the top or to the left of the template. It remains hidden when you browse pages but appears when the visitor presses the small login button. This draws attention to the login form and also keeps your precious screen real-estate free for more content.

There is also an option (left_zero) that let's you add information in an editable area for the Float login.

How to add floating login form in project:
* Go to Project Template.
* Choose style from the Float Login drop down box
* Press the Apply button (icon) to the right and it will be added to template.

New to EZGenerator 4 is the Slide-bar window that contains images and or text with an integrated scroll-bar. This is a great way to fit more easily accessible content on your pages. You can also scroll the content automatically and adjust the speed of the transition.

Tooltips are pop-up texts that appear when the visitor places their mouse cursor over a link or feature. In EZGenerator 4 you now can design your own tool-tip boxes and make them into ‘styles’ to be used in your project.

From the ‘Manage Tooltip Styles’ dialogue (second thumbnail below) there are five tabs: Main, Top, Title, Text and Bottom. From these you can input settings to define background colour, font colour and image dimensions etc.

If you want to use a transparent image, as shown in the example you must remove background colours from all the tabs where it is present.

Administration, you gotta love it, we do!

The Central Admin panel has been given a facelift in EZGenerator 4.

Set password-protected pages, change the layout (skins) by choosing the style (click on the online administration button in project settings).

MySQL is the standard format for saving and manipulating data (customer, product, stock etc) on a web-server. Interactive pages then can access and manipulate this data to create rich and interactive visitor experience.

With EZGenerator 4 all Catalogs and Online Shops now use MySQL as their server-side data format. Once you setup the database with your server, simply input all the settings into the MySQL dialogue (click image to the left) this can be found on the Project Settings tab. If you have a project in version 3 that uses PHP to handle a shop or catalog, it will guide you to get this data converted. Make sure you have properly entered your database settings into EZGenerator first.

You can use MySQL to handle all scripts throughout your project by clicking the box next to it in the MySQL settings box and we also added a handy feature – ‘editable area shop mini-cart’ support, so visitors can have their shopping cart visible all the time.
