A contributor manual for creating Dave Rossi Global pages from approved templates. The design direction follows the site’s cinematic black palette, gold accents, serif headings and clean editorial structure.
1. Introduction
What DRG Share is
Create safely
Content authors create page content inside approved template shells without touching the live website framework.
Stay consistent
Every page should feel like Dave Rossi Global: premium, minimal, cinematic, responsive and text-led.
Package cleanly
Finished work is returned as a ZIP for owner/developer inspection before staging or live publishing.
2. Getting Started
Start every page the same way
Create a new chat. Use a clear chat name such as “Meet Dave page”.
Upload the project ZIP. Upload the supplied daverossiglobal_project.zip before giving page instructions.
Choose a template. Name the template you want to use and provide the page slug.
Add content direction. Upload images, paste copy and describe the section layout you want.
Render and revise. Ask for full page renders as the page develops.
Finalise. Request a clean ZIP only when you are satisfied.

4. Section Library
Use short section names
Simple names make prompting easier. Combine these blocks to describe the page structure.
Create a new Chat (for example New Meet Dave Page).
Copy the Start a Page prompt below into a text editor.
Replace all [placeholders] with your own page information.
Upload daverossiglobal_project.zip into the new chat.
Paste the completed prompt into the same chat.
The assistant will inspect the project, locate the templates and begin creating your page.
Create a New Page
Start a page
Create a page called [Page Title] using the [Template Name] template.
Page slug:
[page-slug]
Only create content inside the marked content area.
Do not change the header, footer, navigation, global stylesheet links or template structure.
Use the new Dave Rossi Global style:
• Dark cinematic background
• Serif headings
• Clean sans-serif body text
• Gold accents
• Strong spacing
• Bootstrap responsive layout
• Mobile-first design.
• New pages must not include styling elements from outside of the template style sheets.
• Be wary when mixing font colours---Use Dark text light backgrounds, Gold/White text on dark backgrounds.
• Styling tips can be obtained from the dev home page @ https://dev.daverossiglobal.com/.
Use the uploaded daverossiglobal_project.zip file structure to create the download.zip containing new page html, override CSS and JS, save images in /assets. All new html pages created in /public .
Please render the full suggested html/css page in the Chat window for review before giving me a download zip.
The new html page must render locally from the downloaded zip.
Please memorise the above and wait for my expected next content prompts.
Request edits
Please revise the page.
Make the opening section more cinematic.
Use a stronger h1 headline.
Change the second section to Image Left + Text.
Increase spacing between sections.
Use gold accents only for the eyebrow text, button and divider lines.
8. Upload Guide
What to upload
Images
Upload source images and label their purpose: hero, portrait, background, card image, gallery, or quote.
Copy
Paste rough content, notes, headings, quotes, testimonials or article text directly into the chat.
References
Refer to existing pages when useful, for example “Use the heading style from the homepage”.
9. Rendering
Ask to render the full page
When you ask for a render, the assistant should show the complete page using the selected template, including the locked header and footer. Use renders to check spacing, image placement, typography and responsive behaviour before finalising.
Render the current page so I can review the full layout with header and footer.
10. Final ZIP
Request the handoff package
The final ZIP should be clean and ready for owner/developer inspection.
Finalise the page.

- Images are saved in the correct /assets/images/[page-slug]/ folder.
