Mass Page Builder — Build Settings Tab

The Build Settings tab controls the overall structure of the website — how pages link to each other, how the target URL is used, what extra pages are included, and which technical SEO options are added during generation. This is one of the most important tabs in the builder because it decides how the website behaves as a system, not just how it looks. The settings from this tab affect the main generated pages and also the linked pages such as About Us, Privacy Policy, Sitemap, and News where those options are enabled.


1

The Build Settings Tab

The Build Settings tab is found in the left sidebar of the Mass Page Builder. It controls how the generated website is structured, how pages link to each other, and which extra pages and SEO features are included. The settings here affect every page in the build.

Builder Mode

Builder Mode controls how the generated pages link to each other and how the main target URL is used across the site. The selected mode changes the internal linking pattern of the build and determines whether pages point mainly to the target URL, to each other, or follow a more silo-style structure. There are six modes to choose from.

Builder Mode radio button options
3

Single Page Mode

Single Page Mode is used when the site should behave like a single landing page style build. In this mode, the build focuses on the target URL as the main destination rather than creating a circular linking pattern between pages.

Single Page Mode selected in the UI
4

Link Wheel

Link Wheel creates a circular style page structure where pages connect in a wheel pattern. This is used when you want the generated pages to support each other through a linked structure instead of acting as isolated pages.

Link Wheel selected in the UI
5

Link Wheel With Spokes

Link Wheel with Spokes builds on the link wheel pattern and also connects the structure back to the main page. This is the default selected mode in the UI and is used when you want a stronger central page supported by surrounding linked pages.

Stack Mode – Umbrella

Stack Mode – Umbrella is used for a stacked structure where the pages are arranged under a main page. This is useful when you want the homepage or central page to act as the main hub of the build.

Stack Mode Umbrella selected in the UI
7

Daisy Chain

Daisy Chain creates a chain-style linking structure where pages connect in sequence. In AI mode this same option is shown as Silo mode in the interface. This mode is useful when you want a more guided path from one page to the next instead of a wheel pattern.

Daisy Chain selected in the UI
8

None

None disables the interlinking pattern between the generated pages. The pages are still created, but the builder mode itself does not create a special linked structure between them.

None mode selected in the UI

Website Name

Website Name is only used for identification inside YACSS. It helps you recognize the project in the My Websites page and does not appear as visible text on the generated website unless you use it elsewhere manually.

Target URL

Target URL is the main URL you want the generated website to point to. It is the central target used by the builder modes and target-linking settings. In most builds, this is the money site, landing page, or main URL you want the generated pages to support.

Target URL field highlighted
11

Create Link

When the Create Link checkbox is enabled, the target URL is turned into an active link where the selected builder mode and target link placement allow it. If this is disabled, the target URL text can still exist in the build setup, but the live target link is not created.

Create Link checkbox highlighted

For Target URL — Link Placement

These options control where the target URL link should be placed on the page. There are four placement options: H1, H2, Below Random Content Area (the default), and Inside Content Area.

For Target URL placement buttons

H1 places the target link on the main heading.

This section is used to add extra outgoing links into the generated pages beyond the main target URL. Click Add Outgoing Link to add a new row. Each row has fields for Anchor URL, Anchor Before Text, Anchor Text, and Anchor After Text.

Use Place on homepage and Subpage placement to control where links appear. If subpage placement is enabled, choose between Place on all subpages or Random placement on subpages. The Limit Interval Start and Limit Interval End fields control how many outgoing links are shown per page.

Metatitle Filename Setting

This section controls how the generated file names are created.

Meta titles will be used as filename uses the page meta titles as the file names.

Meta titles used as filenames

So whatever you enter in the meta title will be used as the filename — for example page-1.html and page-2.html. Homepage filename will be index.html makes the homepage file index.html, while the rest of the pages use their generated filenames. This is the default selection. Page 1 will be index.html, while Page 2 will be page-2.html.

Homepage filename as index.html with page-2.html for other pages

Custom FileNames lets you define your own filenames instead of using the meta titles. The number of custom filenames should match the number of meta titles. When you choose the Custom Filename option it will open a File Name field in the Header tab.

This section controls the special internal links that connect the generated pages together.
