Instant Web Site multi users Can't Post

I am building a site for used car dealers to post there inventory & have there own web site.
With instant web site can I have each dealer create there own site there could be over 100 dealers.
Also I would need to have a page on there site populated be only there inventory.
also I assume I can modify the templates.

Hi,

This can be setup with CMS Builder by creating two new section editors so dealers can have their own pages
with their company details, list of all vehicles and detail page for a vehicle.

Here are the basic steps:

1. In CMS Builder create a new Multi Record editor for "Dealers".
Include all the fields needed: Name, Address, Phone, Upload for logo, etc.

2. Next create a new Multi Record editor for "Vehicles". Include all the fields needed:
Make, Model, Year, Specs, Image Uploads, etc.

3. Create template examples of how you want the following pages to look:
- Dealer page
- Dealer listings page
- details listing page

4. Assign the listings and dealer homepage content records to a user in CMS Builder that will access to update them.

5. Generate the publish code and add into your templates.

This is basically how the Basic Auto template set works:

Using that template set will save you some setup time but you can copy and fields and recreate the same thing.

Let me know if you have any questions.
