August 2026

WhatsApp (AiSensy) billing setup

  • WhatsApp (AiSensy) — step-by-step user manual to copy the API key, username, and Live campaign names from AiSensy and paste them into Settings → WhatsApp (AiSensy) — Billing
  • Screenshot of the billing accordion on /setting
  • AiSensy template setup: Template Type TEXT, Template Format (15 — body must not start or end with a variable), optional Footer, Interactive Actions None, template names with underscores (no spaces)

July 2026

Phase 1 — Orientation

  • Getting Started — login, Admin vs Staff, sidebar map, permissions, first-week checklist
  • Troubleshooting — SMTP, Razorpay, permissions, draft vs published, bulk delete
  • Home page restored — hero, role-based paths, search hint

Phase 3 — Workflow guides

Phase 4 — Real screenshots (July 2026, complete)

Strategy: docs/scripts/screenshot-manifest.mjs maps every guide slug → admin route; qa-tests/capture-all-docs-screenshots.mjs runs login → 61 primary routes → 7 sub-routes → UI interactions → PNG aliases for multi-image guides → VitePress preview shots for workflow/meta pages; npm run sync:images in docs/ swaps all SVG refs to PNG.

  • 100 PNG files captured from demo tenant HBTEA0044 on beentara.com (83 unique + 17 aliases)
  • All 73 guide pages now use real PNG screenshots — zero SVG mockups remain
  • Sub-routes: new invoice, new quote, simple product, add customer, new staff, login screen, portal login, configure terms (/terms/:id)
  • Interaction shots: quick-create menu, create order, receipt modal, issue credit note
  • Docs-only captures: Getting Started, Troubleshooting, Glossary, Changelog, 5 workflow guides, guide index

Re-run capture: cd qa-tests → set DOCS_CAPTURE_EMAIL, DOCS_CAPTURE_PASSWORD, ADMIN_URL, DOCS_TENANT_IDnode capture-all-docs-screenshots.mjscd ../docs && npm run sync:images
