Customise later and use history

Change values without touching code

Open the Customise tab on the left. You see the same form you filled in at the start.

  1. Change the Business name, or pick a new Brand colour.
  2. Choose Save changes.

Studio checks the values, rewrites the project's settings file pgb.config.json (only the variables) and makes a save point named Customised. You see Saved. and the preview updates. A note at the top reminds you: "Saving changes your project's settings file and makes a save point you can go back to."

You can open pgb.config.json in the Files tab to see your values stored there. Editing it directly has the same effect, and the form follows. A project that did not start from a template has no Customise tab.

Save points

The History tab lists save points, newest first. Studio makes them at important moments:

  • Starting point when the project was created.
  • Customised whenever you save the form.
  • Assistant change and Before an assistant change around each AI request.
  • Restored after you restore.
  • Save point for the ones you make yourself.

Make your own

  1. In History, type "Before logo change" in Name this save point (optional).
  2. Choose Save. Studio saves any open files first, then records the point.

Do this before anything risky.

See what changed

On any save point, choose View changes. A list shows each file added, changed or removed since that point, with red for what that point had and green for what you have now. Choose Hide changes to close it.

Restore

  1. Make an edit you regret, such as deleting index.html. (Studio asks "Delete file?" and reminds you "You can get it back from History.")
  2. In History, choose Restore on the save point from before.
  3. Confirm "Restore this save point?".

Your project goes back to how it was. Your current files are kept as a new save point first, so you can change your mind. Restoring never erases history. A project keeps up to 200 save points and drops the oldest.

Good habits

  • Make a named save point before big changes.
  • Rely on Undo for assistant edits (next lesson) and Restore for older states.
  • Use Customise for content and the editor for structure.

Try it yourself

  1. Change your business name in Customise and save.
  2. Make a named save point.
  3. Delete a file, then restore the save point and confirm the file is back.

Recap

  • Customise edits template values and creates a Customised save point.
  • History keeps automatic and named save points.
  • View changes compares a save point with the present.
  • Restore is safe because current work is saved first.
