Create a Box

Menu location: My Menu > Create content > Box

You need to create a Box before the Box ID is given to you, and the zip file is compulsory during the creation. On the other hand, you need a Box ID to code, and finally build the zip file. In this conflicting situation, you can create just any legitimate zip file with just one text file first. Create the Box using this zip file. You can later update your Box with the correct zip file. If you are not confident of creating such a zip file intially, you can download one here.

Move your mouse over the Edit tab

Because you are the creator of this Box, you are allowed to edit this Box. You will see the URL in the status bar of your browser when your mouse is hovering above the Edit tab. The URL will be in the form of http://theboxes.paradise.sg/node/21/edit, where 21 is the Box ID.

Alternatively, you can click on the Edit tab, and the URL will appear in your browser URL field.

After you have edited your code and packed into a zip file, you can update your Box by submitting the updated zip file.
