How to Use Status
Organize Your Dashboard
Status helps you visually scan your sites list:- Green badges = sites that are done
- Gray badges = sites that need work
Filter and Prioritize
When you have many sites, use status to:- Focus on “In Process” sites during work hours
- Review “Live” sites for maintenance tasks
- Quickly identify which client projects are complete
Track Project Progress
Update status as projects move through stages:- Create site → In Process
- Build and test → In Process
- Launch → Live
- Major redesign → In Process
- Relaunch → Live
Status and Export
The Export feature tracks when you last exported scripts. Combined with status:- In Process sites: Export is for testing/preview
- Live sites: Export is for client delivery
