Page Structure

The General Settings page is organized into clearly separated configuration sections. Each section focuses on a specific aspect of the lead generator and can be saved independently.

General Info

This section controls the availability, deployment, and embedding of the lead generator.

Lead Generator Status

This section controls whether the lead generator is accessible to end users.

  • Status indicates whether the lead generator is currently active or inactive.

  • Under Construction Mode can be enabled to temporarily disable public access.

  • When under construction mode is active, the lead generator cannot be accessed by users, even if the deployment settings are valid.

This is useful during setup, testing, maintenance, or content updates.

Deployment Configuration

This section defines how and where the lead generator is hosted and embedded.

  • Deployment Type allows you to choose how the lead generator is delivered:

    • Iframe

    • Subdomain

    • Both iframe and subdomain

  • Domain defines the subdomain on which the lead generator is hosted.

  • Deployment Status indicates whether the configuration is valid.

A valid deployment status confirms that the domain is correctly set and accessible.

circle-info

If the Deployment Status shows Invalid Configuration, the required CNAME record is missing or incorrect. To fix this:

  • Add a new CNAME record in your domain provider

  • Use the subdomain shown in the settings as the Name

  • Use the provided target value as the Value

  • Wait for DNS propagation and refresh the page

Once correctly configured, the status will change to Valid.

Iframe Integration

This section provides everything required to embed the lead generator into a website.

  • The iframe script is generated automatically based on the deployment types.

  • The script can be copied and embedded into any website or CMS.

No manual configuration is required beyond copying the embed code.

Feasibility Type

This section defines how feasibility calculations are performed for potential leads.

  • Package-Based Feasibility

    • Applies predefined packages

circle-info

Package creation and management are handled on the Settings > Project > Packages page.

Important: Packages apply only to the residential project type.

  • Cost-Based Feasibility

    • Uses detailed cost configuration

❗️Important Note:

  • The image shows the Packages result screen. It displays multiple predefined system options with fixed configurations and prices, allowing users to compare and select a recommended system.

❗️Important Note:

  • This shows the Cost Configuration result screen. It displays a single feasibility output with a detailed financial breakdown, such as system size, annual savings, project cost, payback period, and environmental impact.

Localization Settings

This section controls available languages or countries, and grid connection types.

  • Available Languages define which languages users can select in the lead generator.

  • The default language determines which language is displayed when the page is first loaded.

  • Available Countries limit where the lead generator can be used.

circle-info

End users cannot find their location if the country has not been added to the list of available countries, as Google Maps search is limited to those countries.

  • Grid Connection Types define supported flows:

    • On-grid

    • Off-grid

    • Zero Injection

These settings ensure the lead generator behaves correctly for different grid connection types.

Proposal Template

This section defines which proposal template is used for leads generated through the lead generator.

  • Use Favorite Template applies the company’s favorite proposal template by default. All proposals generated from the lead generator follow this template unless overridden elsewhere.

  • Any other proposal template created before can be selected here.

This ensures consistency between lead generator outputs and internal proposal standards.

circle-info

Proposal templates are created on the Settings > Offer > Preferences page. Once a template is created, it appears here in the list.

Decimal Separator

This section controls numeric formatting within the lead generator.

  • The Company Decimal Separator can be applied. Ensures consistency with company-wide number formatting preferences.

  • You may choose a different decimal separator instead of the company default.

This is especially important for international markets using different numeric standards.

  • Company Logo
