The Official IGNIS DI Prompt Guide

Unlock the full potential of your static site generator. Learn how to write deterministic prompts to construct flawless components, dynamic JSON-LD Schema, and high-converting pages.

1 The Golden Rules of Prompting

Rule 1: Context is Everything. IGNIS DI automatically feeds the AI your brand data (Settings tab) and Silo structure. You don't need to re-explain your company name or address in every prompt.

Rule 2: Be Explicit with UI Frameworks. If you want a specific look, name the framework. (e.g., "Use semantic HTML and inline Tailwind CSS classes. Make the background #090C0E and the borders #1E293B.")

Rule 3: Copy Relative Paths. Use the "Copy Relative Path" button in the Asset Manager to easily tell the AI exactly which images to place in your layout.

2 Generating Master Components (Full AI Mode)

Master components like header.html and footer.html require Full AI Mode. Because IGNIS DI automatically feeds your Silo Structure to the AI, you just need to tell it how you want it styled. It will build the dropdown navigation perfectly.

Example: Header Prompt

Generate a sleek, dark-mode header for the website using Tailwind CSS. Include my logo on the left. Build a responsive, collapsible hamburger menu for mobile devices. Ensure the dropdown navigation links are styled beautifully. Add a call-to-action button on the far right that says "Get an Estimate" linking to contact.html.

3 Generating Page Content (Template Mode)

Once your Master Components are built, switch the sidebar to Template Mode to generate individual pages. The AI will write the body content and the IGNIS DI engine will seamlessly wrap it in your header and footer.

Example: Service Page Prompt

Write a high-converting landing page for our "Commercial Roofing" service. Structure the page with a Hero section, a 3-column benefits grid, and a final Call to Action. Use Tailwind CSS. The primary background should be dark slate, and the buttons should be our primary brand color. Include the image "images/commercial-roof.webp" in the Hero section. Ensure all images have descriptive SEO alt tags.

4 The Secret Weapon: Structured Data (Schema)

The true power of IGNIS DI is its ability to dynamically inject complex JSON-LD Schema markup directly into the <head> of your template pages based purely on your prompt instructions.

Scenario: Multi-Location Franchise & Professionals

If you are building a page for a specific franchise location or introducing a specific expert (like a doctor, lawyer, or lead technician), you can force the AI to build nested structured data to dominate local SEO.

Ultimate Local SEO Prompt Example

Write a 600-word location page for our new franchise branch in Kelowna, BC. Include a section introducing our Lead Consultant, "Sarah Jenkins". CRITICAL SEO INSTRUCTION: Inject JSON-LD schema into the head of the document. 1. Use LocalBusiness schema for the Kelowna branch (make sure it is declared as a subOrganization or franchise of the main brand). 2. Include Person schema for Sarah Jenkins, listing her as an employee or founder of this specific location. 3. Ensure the schema validates perfectly.

*Pro Tip: After running a prompt like this, immediately open the SEO Manager tab and click "Run SEO Audit" to verify the exact @type variables that were injected.
