Create a simple invitation

This guide covers the minimum flow to get a first invite out the door.

Step 1: Create the invitation

1. Open the dashboard and choose New invitation.
2. Minimally add a title, event date, and time.
3. Save the invitation so you can attach a template next.

Step 2: Add location details

Add a location name and address. If you include a map link or embed code, the template will inject it into the element with id map_link.

Step 3: Add notes sections

Use Notes, Notes section 2, and Notes section 3 for extra details. Each one maps to its own placeholder id: notes, notes_2, notes_3.

Step 4: Preview

Add a live or draft URL, save, then use the matching preview button.

• Preview live uses your live template URL.
• Preview draft uses your draft template URL.

The draft URL is useful for rapid template iteration, including local templates. If you serve templates locally, enable CORS in your local server.

Example with http-serve:

npx http-serve --cors

That serves index.html at http://localhost:8080 (or http://localhost:8080/<file>.html for named files).
