It's coming up to Christmas and we wanted to share with you some useful and free resources that will help you with your website. These resources include:

• Website templates and styling
• Christmas themed graphics
• Christmas announcement bar
• Christmas icons in your app
• Digital advent calendar

Free website templates

Churches can have any of our current website templates installed on their website for free. This way any church can get a new website design for £0 up front. This is a key strategy in our mission to help all churches get a great website no matter their circumstances.



View our church website templates.

If you would like to discuss upgrading your website, or go ahead with a new template, please email support@hubb.church or fill in the form here.
 

Website graphics

We have created some Christmas images that you can add to your website slideshows and web pages. These graphics are free, but if you want a custom designed graphic please let us know and we an create one for just £45.

If you need any help with managing images on your site please take a look at the videos:

• A guide to our image editor

To save any image, just right click on it and then save the image to your device.

We sourced these images from Unsplash. 
 

Christmas announcement bar

You can use this to announce your Christmas activities. Take a look at our demo church website The Town Church to see it, just under the main slideshow.

We've chosen a red background image, to make it nice and 'Christmassy', and put the icon in white.

Personalisation
We can add this for you, with your chosen icon for free, just fill in the form here to specify the icon you want to use, what you want the text to say, and the page you want to link to in your site - this needs to link to a published page.

Here are the icons, and a preview of our default banner...

 

If you would like a bespoke design and different icon we can do that on a site by site basis, there will be a charge of £45 for this. Please get in touch if you'd prefer that option.
 

Christmas icons in your app

You can also use these icons in your app, see this article for more information.

Digital advent calendar

We have developed a digital advent calendar! Take a look at our live demo on The Town Church which has 15 days set up as examples, and there is some more information and a form to request this here.

We can add the advent calendar for you, and all you need to do is line up 1 article a day by setting the correct publish date, and each day a new box will be able to be seen. In the article you can write text, add images, links and embed media from websites like YouTube, or your own media on Hubb.

We can add this to your site for free :)

Here is a little video of how it could look with an embedded YouTube video...

If you'd like the advent calendar added to your site please fill in the form here.

As always, just contact is if you would like any of the above, or have questions :)
