Authoring and publishing
This page complements /dashboard/web-apps-and-tours/landing-pages with product-facing wording support teams can reuse in tickets.
1. Provision the landing shell
Teams start from the organization’s landing pages list and create a new web app when permitted. Early decisions that matter:
| Decision | Guidance |
|---|---|
| Default languages | Affects guest locale detection; unfinished translations can limit some modules. See /reference/languages-and-localization. |
| Visual identity | Check contrast and readability on real devices, including dark backgrounds if the brand uses them. |
| Domain / slug | Coordinate DNS and TLS with whoever runs infrastructure; a mismatch often shows as a blank page or certificate warning in the browser. |
2. Compose tiles
In the landing detail workspace:
- Add tile and pick a type from the catalog (basic, tour, engagement, etc.).
- Reorder tiles so the first screen matches the story you want guests to see first—order is persisted when saved.
- Preview in the dashboard to catch missing translations, broken links, or empty modules before sharing the public URL.
Duplication strategy
- Duplicate a whole landing for recurring events, then adjust only what changes.
- Copy individual complex tiles (for example chat or gallery) when reusing configuration; always re-check moderation copy and legal terms for contests or raffles.
3. Configure advanced availability
Many tiles support:
- Date windows when the tile should appear.
- Alignment with opening hours where relevant.
- Messaging for “closed” periods so guests know when content returns.
Keep physical signage and campaign dates aligned with these settings.
4. Nested navigation
Use nested landing page tiles for sub-sections. For busy events, avoid very deep navigation stacks on mobile—too many levels make the back path hard to follow.
5. Publishing checklist (support script)
- Each visible tile has a valid size for its type.
- External links use HTTPS and match your link-safety policy.
- Files meet your organization’s malware or document policy where applicable.
- Interactive tiles (chat, gallery, raffle) have an owner for moderation and incidents.
- Payment-related tiles were exercised in a staging or test context when real money is involved.
6. Post-publish monitoring
- Compare traffic or engagement before and after major QR or campaign changes.
- If marketing expects high click volume on a specific tile, confirm engagement looks plausible after go-live.
