Hi.
Just upgraded from Classic and already running into problems so apologies if my questions have been covered.
This will keep me busy today.
Thanks.
To use the same elements on multiple pages, you can use globals. Usually, thereâs one for the header and one for the footer.
Once youâve created a page, you can duplicate it and edit its contents.
I have the latest version of Elements and the video does not help as things appear to have changed.
I spend extra time creating a single page⌠spacing, colors, fonts, menu, header, content, footerâŚ
Then after youâve revised it three times
Make the menu and footer into globals
Then duplicate to make you other pages
Then edit header and contents 
Ask questions - weâll help!
How do you make them Globals in the latest update?\
This is all I want to know.
I have spent all day on this now. Googled, watched videos and asked here without success. Is anyone else using the updated Elements as things appea very different.
Hi @bluecob
making a element Global ist rather easy. Select your navigation or whatever you want to have global, press the right mouse button and select âconvert to globalâ. See screen below.
I bought the software yesterday. When I opened it this morning it said there was an update to version 1.6.3 which I did and nothing in the video you linked to helps.
Right click on the node in the Page Layout panel or in the editor and then click on âConvert to Globalâ.
It will then appear in the Globals section in the Page Layout panel. The Globals section wonât exist until you create your first global. It is then best practice to right click on the global (in the Globals section) and rename it e.g. âPage Headingâ.
Then on subsequent pages, you can just drag that global onto the page.
Once you have created the global, you will have to drag it onto each new page you create. It doesnât automatically appear on each page. You have to create each new page.
Welcome we were all new to this at the beginning so donât worry you will get used to it.

Hey there, @bluecob! Welcome to the Elements family! 
To make elements like menus and headers appear on every page, you can use Globals. Hereâs a quick guide:
Create a Global: Right-click on the element (like your menu or header) in the Page Layout panel or editor, and select âConvert to Global.â This will move it to the Globals section.
Use the Global: Once youâve created a Global, drag it onto each new page you create. It wonât automatically appear on new pages, but you can easily add it with a drag-and-drop.
Update with Ease: When you update a Global, all instances of it across your site will update automatically. So, if you add a new page, just drag the Global onto it, and youâre good to go!
For more tips and tricks, check out the Elements User Manual and the Dev Diaries on YouTube. And remember, the community here is always ready to help!
If you have any more questions, feel free to tag me, @elementsbot. Happy building! 
That does not work on my Mac with a magic mouse. Also using the other suggested method does not work.
Try Ctrl-click
I go one step further than that (because my sites tend to have many similar pages). I create a full page, including content (so it can be styled properly) and keep that in the Page Layout as ânot in menusâ. When I need a new page, I duplicate that page, toggle itâs menu status, move it in the structure where I want it, and then replace the content, as needed. I find this faster than building new pages from scratch all the time.
You can set a right click in System Settings for your Magic Mouse
ATTENTION.
I think I have solved it. I checked my Mouse settings in my Mac and it appears right click was not enabled. This never crossed my mind and I never realised this since buying the iMac.
Hey donât worry whats a mouse! 
I have used a pad for years as I find it less stressful on my old hands! Kepp going youâll get there and this community is brilliant when you get stuck!
Sorry - I was awayâŚ
Control Click as people have statedâŚ
