Constructive feedback:
I created a free account and dragged four “slices” on to what I thought was a page.
When I clicked save it told me it was out of space and I have to upgrade to premium or clear out space.
I then went to the dashboard dropdown, and selected pages, and added a page slug, and dragged a “slice” to it. Tried to save, same message.
If I go to billing, it says that the free plan has a 5 page limit. But I don’t seem able to create any pages.
I’m wondering if it automatically counts the “slices” that I have to choose from in the theme I chose as being part of the page limit? It looks like there are 16 slices to choose from in the theme I picked.
If it’s because of the slices that came with the theme that I’m out of available pages, I would suggest not counting included slices from the theme toward the page limit for the free plan.
You’re right. It’s cumbersome. And this will change.
I actually spooked for launch and dialed things down.
The idea was for a user to skip the interface and just type a subdomain to get started: <whatever>.tips.io
All sites would start in a playground mode where no signup is required to get going.
But it would be timed and if you didn’t add an email progress would be lost and the site would self-delete.
For launch, I limited it to basically zero to work out bugs and spam. I will be reversing this but open to ideas to balance onboarding.
