Template guide
Start here
Make this hire site your own in an afternoon. Work through the five steps below, then publish. Delete this page whenever you like.
01
Make it yours
Change the logo text in the Navigation and Footer components, then update your colours in Assets > Colors and your fonts in Assets > Text Styles. Every page, button and code component follows them, including the wishlist drawer and the print sheet. Your company details for printed wishlists live in the Print Sheet component on the Wishlist page.
02
Load your catalogue
Hire Items, Looks and Look Items live in the CMS. Edit items directly, or import your catalogue from CSV. Download the sample files to see the exact columns, including how Look Items link a look to its pieces by slug.
03
Connect your forms
Select the form on the Quote Request page and on the Contact page, then choose where submissions go: email, Google Sheets or a webhook. Every quote request automatically includes Hire items, SKU list, Wishlist reference, Line count and Styled looks, ready to price. If you rename the Event date or Flexible date fields, update the matching names in the Quote Form Fields component.
04
Set your wishlist rules
Minimum hire and Pack increment control the quantities guests can choose for each item. Option choices are comma separated, for example Ivory, Sage, Dusty Blue. A wishlist holds up to 20 lines and is kept in the visitor’s browser - selections only, never contact details.
05
Publish
Update your site title, description and social image in Site Settings, put your business name in each page title, connect your domain and publish. Your collection search, filters and wishlist work as soon as you go live.
