🏠 melthewinner.comMel's site

When ON, the homepage (mel-index.html) shows a simple "under maintenance" page to every visitor instead of the normal content. Every other page on the site (about, piano, teach, daycare, my day, quizzes, etc.) keeps working normally when visited directly — this switch only affects mel-index.html. Takes effect immediately, no redeploy needed.

Off
Maintenance message (shown on the overlay)

Editable so you don't need a redeploy to change the wording. Portuguese fields are optional — leave blank to show the English text to PT visitors too.

These boxes always show real, editable text, either what you've saved before, or the original suggested wording if nothing's been saved yet. Edit as much or as little as you like, then click Save. To go back to the original later, just delete your text and retype it, or clear a box and save to fall back to it automatically.

Let visitors send a message while in maintenance On

When on, the maintenance screen shows a small "send a message anyway" form (email + note) so visitors can still reach Mel even though the homepage is down. Messages sent that way show up below.

Messages received during maintenance

Add, edit, reorder, or remove the project cards shown on the homepage. Each project can have its own icon, description, and link, or no link at all if it doesn't have its own page yet.

Portuguese fields are optional — leave them blank to show the English text everywhere.

Pick a photo from the options below, like choosing a profile picture. Click a thumbnail to make it the live photo.

To add a new option: ask Claude to add the photo to the project, then pick it from the dropdown below and click Add. It'll show up here as a new thumbnail to choose.
