Welcome to Folio Getting Started

Welcome to Folio

· 1 min read

When you sign up for folio.mk you immediately get a live website at yourname.folio.mk, a free SSL certificate, and a ready-to-use admin panel. There is nothing to install and no server to configure — everything runs on managed European infrastructure.

The admin sidebar organises everything into three groups:

  • Content — Articles, Pages, Media

  • Data — Contacts, Newsletter subscribers

  • Customization — Home Layout, Header Layout, Footer Layout, Settings

Publishing your first article

Click Articles in the sidebar, then the blue + New button in the top-right corner. The editor opens in the language that is currently active — you can switch languages using the tabs at the top of the form (Македонски / English / Shqip).

Fill in the Title, a URL-friendly Slug (auto-generated from the title), and a short Excerpt that appears in article cards. Write the main content in the Body rich-text editor. On the right side-panel, set the Publish Status to Live, optionally add a Cover Image from the media library, and enter SEO metadata.

When you click Save, folio.mk automatically rebuilds the static site. Your article is usually live within a few seconds — no manual deploy step required.

Navigating the Settings

Go to Settings and work through the tabs in order:

  1. General — site name, tagline, contact email, and base URL.

  2. Navigation — the links shown in your site's main menu.

  3. Footer & Social — social media profile URLs.

  4. Theme — color palette, fonts, and border radii.

  5. Languages — which languages are enabled and which is the default.

  6. Translations — the translated labels for UI strings like "Read more" or "Subscribe".

  7. Email — outgoing email configuration for contact form notifications.

After changing any setting, click Save & Rebuild to push the changes live.
