🎯 Overview

When working in the Website Studio visual editor, it is natural to wonder whether every small change — like fixing a word or swapping a color — costs credits, and what to do when a delete button is missing. This article answers both questions clearly.

💳 Do Inline Edits Cost Credits?

Credits in Website Studio are tied to generation activities, not manual edits. The following actions do consume credits:

  • Generating a new PPC landing page
  • Cloning an existing page
  • Building a local website
  • Any AI-assisted generation triggered from the left sidebar under Website Studio

The following actions do not consume credits:

  • Typing or replacing text directly in the visual editor
  • Changing a color using the color picker
  • Resizing, moving, or repositioning elements on the canvas
  • Updating fonts, spacing, or other style properties manually

In short: if you are making a change yourself in the editor without asking the AI to generate or rewrite content, no credit is charged.

🗑️ How to Delete a Line When There Is No Delete Button

Some elements in the visual editor do not display a visible delete or remove button. In these cases, use the screenshot-and-prompt method to instruct the AI to remove the element for you. Follow these steps:

  1. Open Website Studio from the left sidebar and navigate to the page you are editing.
  2. Take a screenshot of the section containing the line or element you want to remove. Make sure the element is clearly visible in the screenshot.
  3. Open the chat panel within Website Studio.
  4. Upload the screenshot and type a clear instruction, for example: "Remove the line shown in this screenshot" or "Delete the divider between the headline and the button in this section."
  5. The AI will process your request and apply the change to the page.
  6. Review the result in the visual editor and confirm the element has been removed.

Important: Because this step uses the AI to modify your page, it does consume credits. If you need to remove multiple elements, try to include them all in a single prompt and screenshot to use credits efficiently.

💡 Tips for Efficient Editing

  • Always make manual text and color changes directly in the editor when possible — these are free and instant.
  • Reserve AI prompts for structural changes, such as deleting elements, reorganizing sections, or generating new content.
  • Be specific in your prompts. Describing exactly which element to remove reduces the chance of unintended changes and avoids needing a follow-up generation.
  • If you are unsure whether an action will cost a credit, opt for the manual edit path first. If the editor does not give you the control you need, then use the AI chat.

📋 Quick Reference: Credit Usage at a Glance

  • Costs credits: Page generation, AI chat modifications, cloning pages
  • Free: Typing text, changing colors, adjusting styles, repositioning elements manually
  • Deleting elements with no button: Use a screenshot and an AI chat prompt — this costs credits
