Settings reference

Every setting category, what its fields do, and which templates have it.

Settings are grouped into categories in the editor sidebar. Which categories a template has — and what they are called — depends on the template, so this page lists each template’s categories by their exact names in the editor.

Categories, by template

The same settings, different labelsSimple and Duo are the two original templates and use short category names (Email, Password, Social). The five Pro templates spell them out (Email Sign-up, Password Protection, Social Media Links), and Video Hero and Product Showcase differ again (Newsletter Signup, Social Media). The settings inside are the same — the sections below are grouped by what they do rather than by any one template's labels.

Content

The words on the page.

Field Notes
Page header / Headline The main heading. Defaults to “Coming Soon” — change it.
Page content / Body content A rich-text field with bold, italics, links, and lists.
Subtitle Plain text under the headline (Minimal, Countdown, Video Hero).
Product name / tagline Product Showcase’s equivalent of headline and subtitle.
Field Notes
Logo image No wider than 500px. Paired with Logo max width to scale it down.
Favicon 32 × 32 px. The icon in the browser tab.
Background color Used when no background image is set.
Background image 1680 × 1050 px works well.
Mobile background image Simple only. A separate image for narrow screens, so a wide hero does not crop badly.
Overlay color A colour laid over the background image to keep text readable.
Hero image Duo (up to three, rotating) and Split Hero (one).
Product images Product Showcase — up to four, shown as a gallery.

Colors

Most templates expose a small, deliberate palette rather than every colour individually.

Field Notes
Text color Body copy.
Headline / heading color Where the headline is set separately from body text.
Accent color Links, underlines, and highlights.
Button background / hover / text The signup button’s three states.
Input background / border The email field.
Gradient start / end Minimal and Split Hero, when no image is set.

Click any colour field to open a picker, or type a hex value.

Typography

A Font family dropdown of system fonts, grouped into sans-serif and serif. Simple also has Font color, Link color, Link hover color, and Text shadow, which is worth turning on when text sits over a photograph.

To use a font that is not listed, see Using a custom font.

Email

Field Notes
Show email signup form Turns the form on. On Simple this is Check to enable the email signup form.
Email placeholder The grey text in the empty field.
Button text The submit button’s label.
First / last name placeholder Duo only — it is the only template that collects names.
Form action URL Leave blank to use the built-in list. Set it to send signups to Mailchimp, Klaviyo, or another service instead.
Hidden fields Comma-separated key=value pairs sent with a third-party form, such as a Klaviyo list ID.

See Collecting email signups and Third-party email services.

Password

These control the wording of the password prompt, not whether it is on. Turning password protection on happens in Settings → Password Protection.

Field Notes
Password field placeholder Grey text in the empty password field.
Password submit button text The button’s label.
Password link override text Leave blank for a lock icon. Enter text to show words instead — often clearer.

Social

Show social media links plus a URL field per network. Empty fields are not rendered, so only the networks you fill in appear.

Simple and Duo cover Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, Vimeo, and TikTok. The Pro templates carry a shorter list — typically Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and TikTok or YouTube.

Enter full URLs (https://instagram.com/yourbrand), not handles.

Simple and Duo only. A Show copyright? checkbox and a Custom copyright text field that accepts HTML, so you can include a link.

SEO & Analytics

Simple and Duo only. Page title, page description, Facebook Pixel ID, and Google Analytics GA4 code. See SEO, Facebook Pixel, and Google Analytics.

Countdown

Simple and Countdown. A checkbox, a date and time picker, and — on the Countdown template — five colour fields for the timer’s appearance. See Countdown timer.

Video

  • SimpleShow embedded video plus a YouTube or Vimeo embed code field. Paste the whole <iframe> block.
  • Duo — a Full YouTube link and a Video button color; the video opens behind a play button rather than playing inline.
  • Video Hero — a Background video URL (MP4, under 5MB), a poster image, a background image fallback, and an overlay color.

Slideshow

Simple rotates a set of background images (Background slider). Duo rotates up to three hero images. Use images of the same dimensions, or the transition jumps.

Preloader

Simple only. A brief loading animation before the page appears, with a configurable line colour and background colour.

Worth turning off unless your page has a heavy background image — on a fast page it adds a delay rather than hiding one.

Progress bar and social proof

Split Hero only.

  • Progress bar — a label, a percentage, and three colours.
  • Social proof counter — a count and a label. Both are free text and display what you type; they are not connected to your actual signup numbers.

Highlights and badge

Product Showcase only.

  • Highlights — a heading plus up to five bullet points.
  • Badge — the “Coming Soon” pill over the product image, with its own text and colours.

Advanced

Simple and Duo only, and requires the Premium plan. Custom CSS and custom JavaScript — see Custom CSS and JavaScript.
