How to use Hostinger AI Builder manual mode

Learn the main tools and features available in Hostinger AI Builder manual mode.

Updated 6 days ago

Hostinger AI Builder manual mode is a perfect tool that allows creating a website or an online store without any experience in coding or design. The whole process is based on customizing a website template.

Dark theme

Click the Builder dropdown in the top-left corner of the editor, then turn on the Dark theme toggle to switch the editor’s interface to a dark background.

NOTES

  • Dark theme is off by default and does not follow your hPanel theme setting.
  • The canvas and content editing controls, such as section and element settings panels, stay in light theme for better contrast, even when Dark theme is turned on.

Within the builder, there are two main toolbars – the left-side toolbar and the upper toolbar – that include everything you need to run a successful website. Let’s overview the main areas of the builder

Website Editor

Access the builder, and you’ll see the main tools on the left:

More…

In the More… panel on the left, you can find more options, such as additional languages, integrations, form submissions, media library and others

Even though there’s no dedicated tab for sections on the left-side toolbar, you can easily add custom sections to any of your website pages

Website Settings

Within the builder, find the website settings in the bottom-left corner:

Here’s what you’ll find there:

General settings

In the general website settings, you can:

Integrations

Built-in integrations include Google Analytics, Hotjar, WhatsApp, and more

Custom integrations can be added in two ways:

  • Use the Custom code field to insert custom scripts into the <head></head> part of a website’s code

  • Use embed code elements to insert custom scripts into the <body></body> part of a website’s code

Form submissions

This section of your website settings is dedicated to forms that your clients submit via the contact form and subscription form elements on your website

Media library

Locate necessary files and manage them more quickly using the media library

Mobile Editor

To view the mobile version of your website, click on the mobile phone icon in the top toolbar:

By default, website elements are displayed on the mobile view in the order they’ve been added to the desktop view. Even if you later reorder elements on the desktop view, these changes are not automatically applied to the mobile version. You can sort the elements on the mobile view manually. This way, you can lay out elements differently on desktop and mobile views.

Other Options

In the upper toolbar, you can see the following options:

Redo/Undo

If you accidentally delete an element or a section, you can easily restore it using the undo/redo buttons in the upper toolbar

Save

Most changes made within the builder are saved automatically

If any changes are not auto-saved, you’ll always see the Save button to save changes manually

Preview

It doesn’t matter if your website has already been published or is still a draft – you can easily preview it from your editor

Publish

If you are eager to launch your website but still have some unfinished pages, you can publish the homepage only and hide the rest of your pages while you’re working on them
