Questions about Juniper

Can I keep separate food and drink menus?

Yes. Eat and Drink are separate pages, both driven by one menu collection, so prices and descriptions are edited in one place.

How do guests reserve?

The Visit page carries a reservation request form, plus your address and hours. Requests land in your Sitelas inbox.

Who is Juniper for?

Juniper is built for a fine dining restaurant, a tasting room and a wine bar. Not built for fast-casual.

What pages come with Juniper?

6 pages, already written and laid out: Home, Eat, Drink, Gallery, Story and Visit. Add, rename or remove pages whenever you like.

Can Claude or ChatGPT build my site from Juniper?

Yes. Connect Sitelas to your AI agent and ask for a site that uses Juniper. It fills in your details, sends you a preview link, and publishes when you approve. The same chat can keep running the site afterwards.

Can I change Juniper without code?

Yes. Click any text, photo or colour to change it in the visual editor, or ask your AI agent to make the change. Nothing is locked.

What does it cost?

Nothing to start, with no trial clock. A free site runs on a sitelas.com address; Pro is $16 a month per site ($160 a year) for your own domain, analytics and more room.

Can I use my own domain?

Yes, on Pro. Point your domain at the site and the SSL certificate is issued and renewed for you.
