REVIEW: Editing Modes
There are three main editing modes (Content Editing, Structure Editing, and Style editing). This post will cover the first two (Content and Structure Editing). -
Content Editing

You can navigate your site, visiting different pages, just like any other site. Find the page(s) you want to edit, click the edit button associated with the content you want to edit.Common Content Editing buttons:

Most pages have edit buttons that have clear meanings, if in doubt, click on it an see what it does, you won't hurt anything :) -
Structure editing
(Click to view larger)After logged into your website, click the blocks icon in the top editor bar to enter Structure Editing mode. You should now see pill-shaped editing buttons (similar to Content Editing mode) but they will appear around all of your content, since all of your content structures can be configured, re-arranged, and removed.This mode allows you to quickly add pages, widgets (and sections) directly to your website and drag-n-drop organize, configure, or remove pages, widgets and sections.
Common Structure Editing buttons:
