Your project steps
Make the business details fit.
Gather the client’s facts with the workbook. Use setup to enter services, prices, FAQs and the inquiry destination. Download the settings and replace website/site-config.js in your working copy.
Entries are not saved automatically. Reopen your downloaded settings in the form to continue later. Online setup does not change your downloaded website until you replace its settings file.
Finish what makes it theirs.
Replace the illustration with authorized client photography. Edit fixed page copy and colors in the website files. Use the page-details editor for page titles and descriptions. Review both pages, keyboard navigation and enlarged text on a phone and a larger screen.
Leave a website they can own.
Record hosting and domain ownership, support responsibilities and where inquiries arrive. Before a real launch, confirm commercial-use terms, client approval and the actual inquiry destination.
Check the website folderEdit page titles and descriptionsPrepare the client handoffReturn to the design and offer
Save an editable draft to continue later, or download the readable client document. The handoff records your checks; it does not publish the site, create accounts or run a test inquiry.
Finished the practice project?
Review whether the design fits your client’s services and whether you can confidently edit and hand off the files. Keep your original ZIP, working website, exported settings and editable handoff draft together.
This is a private evaluation. Sales and commercial use are not open. Final prices, client-use rights, support and refund terms will be available before you can purchase.
WHEN SOMETHING DOESN’T LOOK RIGHT
A few useful answers.
Start with the symptom. Most setup issues come down to a file, a setting or an unfinished business detail.
Setup says some details need attention. What should I do?
Use the summary at the top of the form. Each link focuses the field that needs correcting, and the summary updates as you edit. Your other entries stay in place. Check the contact link, image path, required business details and any 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?
Setup and handoff show when edits are not in a new download. When using the original six-design viewer, it asks before switching away from edited work. Other designs open their tools directly; save before following another link. Choose “Keep editing” or press Escape to stay; “Leave without saving” discards the changes that are not in a new download. Width changes preserve entries. Your browser may also warn when leaving the full page, but behavior varies by device. Download your settings or editable handoff draft and check that the file was saved. Nothing is saved automatically. A readable client document cannot be reopened as an editable draft.
How do I continue a client handoff later?
Choose “Save editable draft” in the handoff builder. Keep its .json file, then select it in “Pick up where you left off” in the matching kit’s handoff builder. Review the project name and choose “Use this draft.” Save current work first: applying replaces your entries. The readable handoff document and website settings are different files and cannot be reopened as a handoff draft. Saved checkboxes record earlier notes, not newly performed checks.
I changed the setup form, but the demo still looks the same.
The form prepares a settings file. It does not edit the hosted demo. Download site-config.js, replace the file with that exact name inside your extracted website folder, then reload your local homepage. Confirm you opened the working copy you just changed.
I closed setup. Where did my entries go?
The form has no autosave or account storage. If you downloaded settings, reopen the form, choose your saved file, review the business name and apply it. Without an exported file, closed-page entries cannot be recovered by the kit. Export before leaving or changing pages.
My saved settings will not open.
Use the settings file exported by the matching kit’s form. Settings from different designs are not interchangeable. The importer accepts the form’s structured export, not arbitrary handwritten JavaScript. Keep your original file, read the error shown and correct the details in setup. Do not paste executable code into the form.
The photograph is missing.
Place the actual image in website/assets. The setup path must match its filename and capitalization, such as assets/client-home.jpg. The settings export contains a path, not an uploaded photograph. Keep the folder structure when moving or publishing the website.
Why can’t I call, text or book from the preview?
Demo mode intentionally disables contact actions. After commercial-use terms and client details are approved, set demoMode to false in the installed settings file. Verify the actual destination before launch. An inquiry is not a confirmed appointment.
Can the client keep their booking tool or CRM?
Yes. Use its public HTTPS inquiry or booking page. A private dashboard URL is not a customer destination. A public Korvo intake link and calls or texts are other options. Korvo requires a separate workspace. The kit links to the chosen tool; it does not synchronize customer records or supply its own booking system.
The price says “Request estimate.” Is that an error?
No. An empty starting price leaves the amount for discussion; dental designs use “Discuss fees with the practice.” Enter a verified price when the business wants to display one. Check currency, scope and exclusions as well. Example prices are not a recommended pricing strategy for your client.
Where do I change colors and the words that remain?
Settings update the configured business fields. Fixed page copy is in the website HTML files; three-page designs also include details.html. Follow your design’s editing guide for its CSS files and editable fields. Keep a backup and review every page after editing.
The browser tab still has the sample business name.
Review browser titles and search descriptions after installing settings. The page-details editor updates metadata in your saved HTML; it does not edit the visible information-page copy. For current collection designs, use the editor below; earlier evaluation designs need a manual HTML edit. edit your local page details, then save and install each revised page in a separate working copy. Review every revised page. You can also keep the separate offline toolkit; downloading it does not save current editor entries. Unsupported custom markup needs a manual HTML edit.
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 upload the ZIP, the whole product package or its private client documents as the public website. Domains, hosting and ongoing service costs are separate.
Does this include installation or ongoing maintenance?
The 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?
For current collection evaluation files, use the checker below. check your saved download on this device. Your file is never uploaded or changed. A renamed ZIP can still match; an older, edited or re-zipped copy needs its own reference. Keep your original and any working edits before downloading another copy.
I arrived from a payment link. Where is my order?
This preview has no connected paid checkout or order lookup. A checkout reference cannot confirm a purchase here. Do not enter payment details into a setup form. The order screen is an explicitly labeled experience preview.
