Practical setup answers for your downloaded website kit.
Setup says some details need attention. What should I do?
Use the summary at the top of the setup form. Each link focuses the field that needs correcting. Your other entries stay in place. Check the contact link, image path, required business details and service prices, then try the download again. An optional blank price means estimate-only; zero means an actual zero price.
What happens if I leave a form with changes?
The forms have no autosave. Download your settings or editable handoff draft, check that the complete file is saved, and confirm that version in the form. Showing or copying text does not confirm a save. Edits invalidate an earlier confirmation. Your browser may warn before leaving, but behavior varies by device; do not rely on a warning. A readable client document cannot reopen an editing session.
How do I continue a client handoff later?
Choose “Save editable draft” in the handoff builder. Keep its .json file, then select it under “Pick up where you left off” in this same kit’s builder. Review the project name and choose “Use this draft.” Save current work first: applying replaces your entries. The readable document and website settings are different files. Saved checkboxes record earlier notes, not newly performed checks.
I changed setup, but the website still looks the same.
Setup prepares a file; it does not change the website automatically. Install the saved site-config.js in your working website folder, keeping a backup first. Remove browser-added filename suffixes when installing. Refresh the homepage and services page in that working copy. Follow the installation steps and reopen the saved settings in setup to verify them.
I closed setup. Where did my entries go?
If you saved settings, reopen the form, choose that file, review the business name and apply it. Without a saved export or complete text backup, closed-page entries cannot be recovered by the kit. Save before leaving or changing pages.
My saved settings will not open, or the website reports a settings problem.
Use a settings export from this same kit. Different kits’ settings are not interchangeable, and the importer does not run arbitrary handwritten JavaScript. Preserve your edited file and follow the settings recovery instructions. Restoring the original example does not recover unsaved edits.
The photograph is missing.
Place the actual image in website/assets. The setup path must match its filename and capitalization, such as assets/client-photo.jpg. Settings contain a path, not an uploaded image. Keep the folder structure intact and retain the illustration disclosure if you keep the example image.
Why can’t I call, text or book from the preview?
Evaluation mode intentionally disables contact actions. Keep it enabled during evaluation. Commercial-use approval, client-approved details and an authorized check of the real destination are required before a business launch. An inquiry is not a confirmed appointment.
Can the client keep their booking tool or CRM?
Use its public HTTPS inquiry or booking page, not a private dashboard URL. A public Korvo intake link and calls or texts are other supported routes. Korvo requires a separate workspace. The kit links to the chosen tool; it does not synchronize records or supply a booking system.
The price says “Request an estimate.” Is that an error?
An empty starting price means estimate-only work. Enter a verified price only when the business wants to display one. Check currency, scope and exclusions as well. Example prices are not a recommended pricing strategy.
Where do I change colors and the words that remain?
Settings update configured business fields. Fixed copy is in website/index.html and website/services.html. This design’s visual overrides are in website/signature.css. Keep backups and review both pages after editing. See the setup guide for the complete workflow.
The browser tab still has the sample business name.
Start by installing settings with the correct business name, service description and introduction. On page load, website/template.js derives the browser title and description from those settings, so editing only the HTML metadata is not enough for a custom page-specific result. A builder can coordinate changes to the HTML and that initialization code, keeping backups and preserving the remaining script. Reopen both pages and inspect their final titles and descriptions. The shared page-details editor and its separate toolkit offer another workflow, but are not included in this website kit.
What exactly should go on the client’s hosting?
After approval, publish the contents of website with index.html at the site root. Keep asset paths intact. Do not publish the ZIP, whole product folder or private client documents. Domains, hosting and ongoing service costs are separate.
Does this include installation or ongoing maintenance?
This evaluation includes editable files and instructions for builders comfortable with HTML and CSS. Installation, custom design, hosting administration and ongoing maintenance are separate work. A paid support scope and verified contact channel must be published before sales open.
Is my saved ZIP complete and the right kit?
Keep the original archive and extract it into a new folder. Start with Start here, confirm it identifies Afterglow, and open both website pages. The included manifest.json lists packaged files and their byte hashes for a technical comparison. Opening pages alone does not prove that every file is intact or establish purchase rights. The shared download checker is not included in this kit.
I arrived from a payment link. Where is my order?
This evaluation has no connected paid checkout or order lookup. A payment reference cannot confirm a purchase here. Do not enter payment details into a setup form.
If the handoff download cannot start
Keep the handoff page open and retry. Select document text provides the readable .md file; Show editable draft text provides the .json file that can reopen editing. Save all text with the displayed filename in a plain-text editor. Copying text does not confirm it was saved. The client message has its own separate preview.
If the settings download cannot start
Keep setup open. Retry the download or choose Show settings text, then save the complete text in a plain-text file named site-config.js with no added .txt extension. Reopen it in the matching setup form to verify the file before replacing your working copy. Copying text does not confirm it was saved.
If the issue remains
Record the kit/version, page or file, steps to reproduce, expected result, actual result and browser/device. Leave out private customer information, access codes, passwords and payment details. No monitored support contact is active in this evaluation release.
