Every great website starts with momentum, that feeling of knowing exactly what to do next. The new SeedProd dashboard is designed to give you that from the very first click.

We’ve reimagined the layout to make your workflow faster and more intuitive. The tools you use most are front and center, so you can move from idea to finished page with less effort and more focus.

It’s a clean experience that makes it easier to start building the website you need right away.

A Smarter Dashboard Designed by You

The new SeedProd dashboard began with a simple goal: to make building your website easier.

We looked closely at how people use SeedProd each day, like where they click, what they open most, and how they move through different tools.

That research helped us understand what matters most:

• A clear starting point
• Fewer steps
• Faster access to what you need

Instead of adding more, we simplified.

The new design removes clutter, highlights key actions, and keeps everything within easy reach.

The result is a dashboard shaped by real use and real feedback, built to help you move quickly and stay focused on creating.

One Dashboard for Every Way You Build

The new SeedProd dashboard brings everything together in a clean workspace, so everything you need to create and manage your website starts in one place.

At the center of the update are four main panels that give you quick access to every part of your workflow.

Your New Starting Point

The Setup & Status panel is now where your projects begin.

From here, you can enable Coming Soon or Maintenance Mode, set up custom Login and 404 pages, or create new landing pages from one simple panel.

The Landing Pages dashboard also includes the Import and Export feature, now moved here for easier access. You can quickly reuse your favorite designs or transfer them between sites with a few easy clicks.

The Setup & Status panel also connects directly to the Website Builder dashboard, where you’ll find the theme import and export options and a cleaner toggle to enable your SeedProd theme.

At the bottom of that first panel, you’ll see a subscriber count that shows how many people have signed up through your SeedProd opt-in forms. It’s an easy way to track your growth right from your dashboard.

More Panels to Keep You Connected

The remaining panels are designed to give you everything you need at a glance, from trusted WordPress plugin suggestions to quick access to support and product news.

• Recommended Plugins: Find WordPress tools that work seamlessly with SeedProd, all tested for compatibility and performance.
• Help & Resources: Jump straight to documentation, video tutorials, or the support center without leaving your dashboard.
• What’s New: Catch up on the latest product updates, announcements, and new feature releases as they happen.

A Simpler Sidebar to Match

The SeedProd sidebar menu has been redesigned to match the clean, focused layout of the new dashboard. It’s shorter, clearer, and built around the tools you use most.

You’ll now see fewer main sections:

• Dashboard
• AI Theme Builder – Build your full website instantly at ai.seedprod.com.
• Website Builder – Access and edit your SeedProd theme templates and parts.
• Landing Pages – Manage your pages, templates, and page modes.
• Settings – Organized into tabs for General, Subscribers, Recommended Plugins, and About Us.

This new structure makes it easier to move between sections without losing focus. Whatever you’re building, everything you need is right where you expect it.

What This Redesign Means for You

This redesign is made for every kind of website creator. Whether you’re building your first site or managing projects for clients, it helps you move quickly and stay focused.

• Small business owners can launch professional websites without the learning curve. Tools like landing pages, coming soon mode, and maintenance mode are all easy to find and ready to use.

• Freelancers and agencies can deliver projects faster with a layout their whole team can pick up right away. Everything is organized for smoother handoffs and quicker results.

• Marketers can create high-converting campaigns with direct access to templates and subscriber insights in one clear workspace.

We designed this around a simple idea: the best interface is the one that gets out of your way. No hidden menus, no complex navigation, just the tools you need, right when you need them.

See the New Dashboard for Yourself

The redesigned SeedProd dashboard is ready for you to try, built to help you work faster and keep building without distractions. Log in to your account and see how easy it feels to move from idea to launch.

This simpler design also makes room for what’s next. We’re already working on new AI tools that will build on this and make creating with SeedProd AI even easier.

If you’re happy with the generated design, head back to the SeedProd AI dashboard, and click the Download button.

It’s hard to keep visitors engaged on your website, even for experienced site owners like me. Especially when you only have 50 milliseconds to make an impression before they decide to stay or leave.

Now think about how many customers you’re losing because your image sliders aren’t doing their job: getting and keeping attention.

Every visitor who leaves without taking action is a missed lead or sale for your business.

That’s why I’m thrilled to announce our completely revamped Image Carousel block for SeedProd.

Now you can customize each slide with your own text and buttons, making your sliders more engaging and professional. It simplifies the entire process of creating attention-grabbing carousels and helps you turn more visitors into customers.

Let’s take a closer look at what you can do with the new and improved Image Carousels.

Add Text and Buttons to Image Carousels

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could add attention-grabbing headlines and call-to-action buttons right on your slider images? With this update to our Image Carousel block, it’s super easy to do just that.

You can now add custom headers, sub-headers, and clickable buttons to each slide individually.

But what sets SeedProd apart from other website builders, is how easy it is to fine-tune the details. While others overwhelm you with tons of settings, ours is designed to keep things simple and easy.

It only takes a few clicks to set up your carousel and get it looking just the way you want.

Make Your Text Pop

For the entire carousel, you can add a color overlay to make the text and buttons stand out.

You can also adjust the opacity, so images are still visible in the background.

Easily Remove Distractions

By default, carousels will display navigation controls under the images. But if you want a cleaner look, you can now disable this option while still allowing the carousel to autoplay and cycle through each slide.

Put Buttons Where They’re Noticed

Chances are, you won’t always want your buttons and headers right in the middle of an image. That’s why we’ve made it easy to change the vertical and horizontal alignment.

This means you can move the text and button to anywhere you like on the carousel. Just drag the sliders until everything is right where you want it.

Make Every Element Work Together

You can customize the look of each text and button element to match your website perfectly. Change fonts, adjust sizes, and pick colors that grab attention.

Plus, add smooth animations to make your content come alive and keep visitors engaged.

If you’re unsure how to make the most of this update, here are some tried and tested ways you can use image carousels to get results for your business:

• Show off your products with “Buy Now” buttons that turn browsers into buyers
• Display customer reviews with professional text overlays that build instant trust
• Create portfolio presentations that help you land more clients
• Highlight your services with clear calls-to-action that get more bookings
• Promote special offers with eye-catching headlines that drive sales

While other WordPress builders make you struggle with settings or charge extra for basic features, our new Image Carousel gives you everything you need in one simple package. No hidden costs, no complexity, just professional results in minutes.

Think about it: How many more conversions could you get with sliders that actually engage your visitors?

New Industry-Specific Website Themes

I know how time-consuming it can be to start a website from scratch. That’s why we’ve also added 15 new professional themes designed specifically for:

• Business & Marketing – Perfect for agencies, consultants, and service providers
• Health & Wellness – Ideal for coaches, therapists, and wellness practitioners
• Entertainment & Travel – Great for travel blogs, entertainment venues, and tourist services
• Home Services – Designed for contractors, cleaners, and home maintenance pros
• Real Estate – Built for realtors, property managers, and real estate investors
• Author – Crafted for writers, bloggers, and content creators

Each theme comes with pre-built pages and sections, making it easy to launch your website faster. Just customize the content, add your branding, and you’re ready to go.

And with our new improved Image Carousel block, you can easily enhance any template with engaging, conversion-focused sliders wherever you need them.

Create Sliders That Actually Convert

With this update, you can say goodbye to sliders that visitors ignore and hello to more potential leads and customers.

To see the difference this update can make for your business, update your SeedProd plugin and try it today.

As always, thank you for being part of the SeedProd community. We’re committed to making website building easier and more powerful for you.

Creating a Sticky Header

1. While editing a page or template with SeedProd, add a section that will contain your header elements.
2. After creating your header section, click on the section’s settings handle (the gear icon within the section’s purple toolbar) to open its settings panel. You may also do this by opening the Layout Navigation panel, and then clicking on the header section within this panel.
   
3. Click on the “Advanced” tab and then open the “Position” panel.
   
4. In the “Position” dropdown menu, select “Sticky”. Then, add a zero (“0”) top offset and a high z-index number (for example, “9999”) to ensure that the header stays at the top above all elements on the page.
   
5. Save this page or template then preview the page to see the sticky header in action while scrolling down/up on the page.
6. That’s it! You now have an awesome sticky header on your site.

Adding a Shape Divider

Shape Dividers can be easily selected under the Advanced tab after selecting a Section or Column. Here’s our step-by-step guide on doing this for the top and bottom shape dividers.

1. Select the section or column element you would like to add a shape divider to. You may select the desired section or column using the Layout Navigation panel, or by clicking on their Settings handle while hovering your cursor over any of the edges of this element.
2. Click on the Advanced tab and expand the Shape Divider section.
   
3. Select the Top (or Bottom) shape divider position option, then select one of the various types in the Type dropdown menu.
   
4. You will now have more options to customize your shape divider, including its Color, Width, and Height. You also have the Flip option to flip its horizontal orientation and the Bring to Front option to bring it in front of all elements within this section or column.
   

   Quick Tip: You can also have both top and bottom shape dividers by customizing both the top and bottom shape dividers.

5. That’s it! You now have an awesome page design with the simple yet elegant addition of shape dividers.

Adjusting Column Sizes

Using the Layout Navigation panel:

1. Open the Layout Navigation panel by clicking on its icon at the bottom of the left side panel.
   
2. On the Layout Navigation panel, select the column you’d like to adjust. This will open the column’s layout settings where you can adjust the Column Width option.
   
3. After adjusting the width of the desired columns, you can save this change and preview the page.

1. Hover anywhere within the section that contains the columns you’d like to resize. This will show the row’s handle options (in blue) including the Resize Columns option.
   
2. Click on the Resize Columns handle option to turn on the column resize mode. Then, click and drag the column gutter between any two columns to adjust the size of the columns proportionally.
   
3. After adjusting the width of the desired columns, you can save this change and preview the page.

That’s it! You can repeat any of the two methods to resize any column on your SeedProd pages.

• PHP Version: so we know which PHP versions we have to test against (no one likes whitescreens or log files full of errors).
• WordPress Version: so we know which WordPress versions to support and test against.
• MySQL Version: so we know which versions of MySQL to support and test against for our custom tables.
• SeedProd Version: so we know which versions of SeedProd are potentially responsible for issues when we get bug reports, allowing us to identify issues and release solutions much faster.
• The SERVER_SOFTWARE variable in PHP: combined with an SeedProd option called SAS are used to parse out which web hosting companies our users are using. We use this to determine the top hosts users are using and make sure that we have testing accounts with those hosting companies, so we can properly test our new releases with various host environments. This also helps us identify conflicts with specific hosting providers so we know which hosts to work with to fix the issue if it’s a server configuration issue.
• Theme/Plugin names and versions: So we know which themes and plugins to support and test against. SeedProd runs on over 1 million websites. While we can’t test with all 50,000+ plugins, we do our best to test against the top plugins from this list.
• License key and email and url: If you’re an SeedProd customer, then we use this to determine if there’s an issue with your specific license key, and to link the profile of your site with the configuration of authentication to allow us to determine if there’s issues with your SeedProd authentication.
• SeedProd settings: So we know which settings people are using, allowing us to determine potentially which new settings or areas of SeedProd people want us to expand on, and which settings people aren’t using.
• Site and user count and is multisite: This allows us to gauge how important it is to support specific types of multisites like multi-network and similar styles of configuration and gauge how much we need to scale our servers before launching features like author tracking dashboards that are correlated to the number of users on a site using it in terms of scale.
• Usage tracking config: The SeedProd option that contains the information on when the usage tracking data-sync will happen (once a week), so we can gauge the server load for the usage tracking servers.

Requirements: The Progress Bar block is available in all our license plans.

Adding the Progress Bar to Your SeedProd Pages

Follow these steps to integrate the Progress Bar on your SeedProd pages:

1. From the Design > Blocks panel, locate and drag the Progress Bar block onto the desired page section.
   
2. Click on the Progress Bar block to access its settings. In the Content tab, you will find options to set the bar text, percentage, and color.
   
3. Navigate to the Templates tab to choose the preferred bar style.
   
4. In the Advanced tab, explore additional options such as adding more styles, adjusting spacing, attributes, and device visibility.
   
5. Remember to save your work to ensure the changes are preserved.

That’s it! By following these outlined steps, you can incorporate the Progress Bar Block into your SeedProd pages, offering an engaging way to showcase progress and completion visually.
