C. Key Inventory Operations

Operation Required Role Description & Rules Best Practices
Add Product Admin Creating new entries under `dashboard/add-product.html` page. Ensure high resolution images and appropriate meta descriptions for SEO search indices are specified.
Edit Product Admin Modifying details on existing listing, accessed by clicking the edit icon in the Products table. Double check current prices to avoid incorrect calculations on checkout checkouts.
Delete Product Admin Permanent database removal of product data from store dashboard. Avoid deleting high-sales history items. Set status to "Unpublished" or stock to 0 instead.
Categories Management Admin Adding/editing store categorization hierarchies under `dashboard/categories.html`. Use brief names (1-2 words max) and keep icons clean and descriptive.
Bulk Import/Export Admin Download/Upload spreadsheets containing entire catalog rows. Always keep a backup CSV version before uploading changes. Validate columns structure.
Stock Level Alerts System Auto Auto-notifications sent to dashboard when stock drops below 10 units. Setup auto email reports to restock products from suppliers on time.

3. Media Library

Coming Soon

The Media Library will be a centralised file manager built into the admin dashboard. Instead of uploading images from scratch every time you add a product, category, or blog post, you will be able to manage all your store assets from one place and reuse any previously uploaded file instantly.

A. What the Media Library Does

Upload & Store

Upload images once and keep them stored in the library permanently. Supports JPG, JPEG, PNG, and WEBP formats up to 2 MB per file.

Browse & Reuse

Browse all previously uploaded files in a grid view and pick any image to attach to a product, category, or blog post without re-uploading.

Manage & Delete

Remove outdated or unused images to keep the library clean and reduce storage usage. Bulk delete will be supported.

Organise by Folder

Files will be sortable into folders such as Products, Categories, Blog, and Banners so you can locate assets faster.

B. Accepted File Specifications

Context Recommended Ratio Ideal Size Max File Size Accepted Formats
Product Images 1:1 (Square) 800 × 800 px 2 MB JPG, JPEG, PNG, WEBP
Category Icons 1:1 (Square) 400 × 400 px 2 MB JPG, JPEG, PNG, WEBP, SVG
Blog Cover Images 16:9 (Widescreen) 1920 × 1080 px 2 MB JPG, JPEG, PNG, WEBP
Banners / Sliders 16:9 or 21:9 1920 × 600 px 2 MB JPG, JPEG, PNG, WEBP

C. How It Will Integrate with Other Modules

  • Add / Edit Product — A "Choose from Media" button will appear next to the image upload dropzone, letting you pick an already-uploaded product photo.
  • Add / Edit Category — Category icon selection will offer a media picker in addition to the direct upload input.
  • Blog New Post — The cover image dropzone will have a "From Library" tab so you can reuse previously uploaded blog covers.
  • Standalone Media Page — Accessible directly from the sidebar under Site Settings → Media. Full grid view with search, filter by type, and sort by date.

4. Store Settings

Coming Soon

The Store Settings section will act as the master control panel for your entire ClenzyPlus storefront. Here you will be able to configure global rules, store identity, branding, shipping, and tax logic directly from the dashboard.

A. What Store Settings Will Control

Store Identity

Update store name, logo, contact email, phone number, and physical address seamlessly.

Currency & Tax

Set currency symbols (e.g., ₹), define tax rates, and configure tax display rules globally.

Shipping Logic

Manage shipping zones, flat rates, free shipping thresholds, and delivery rules.

Branding & Theme

Tweak primary colors, typography, homepage layout banners, and favicon easily.

3. Dashboard Features Guide

A complete reference guide for user management, ordering operations, audit trails, and dashboard settings.

Orders Management

Navigate to `dashboard/order-list.html` to review all sales transactions. Clicking any row opens `order-single.html` where admins can update shipping progress, process refunds, or print order invoices.

Status Badges:
Pending Processing Shipped Cancelled
User & Roles

Create and manage customer profiles under the Customers tab. Role changes require administrator authentication. By default, customer accounts cannot gain dashboard access due to global `admin-guard.js` block rules.

Authentication Guard Activated
Reports & Analytics

The main homepage generates real-time graphs showing Monthly Earnings, sales channels breakdown, and inventory values. Data resets occur automatically each financial year cycle.

Alerts & Audit Logs

Audits are saved automatically upon database transactions. Review product logs, customer updates, and order changes directly from the administration dashboard control panel.

4. Interactive Learning & FAQs

Use these interactive widgets to resolve queries and complete simulated administrative training walkthroughs.

A. Store Audit Walkthrough

Step 1: Check Current Pending Orders
Progress: 20%

Navigate to the Order list page. Look for orders marked with the yellow 'Pending' status. Check if transaction details resolve properly in Rupees.

B. Interactive FAQs Accordion

The ClenzyPlus store is configured to execute transactions and metrics calculations exclusively in Indian Rupees (₹). No manual adjustments are required, as pricing tables, order records, and dashboard metrics read currency fields directly in ₹/INR.

The site checks authorization client-side via `assets/js/admin-guard.js`. Any URL containing `/dashboard/` is automatically guarded. If the check resolves that `isAdminLoggedIn` is not `'true'` in localStorage, the browser intercepts execution and redirects the client to the sign-in page.

Product images are uploaded during product creation or edits inside the product forms. Recommended image ratio is 1:1 (Square, e.g., 800x800px). Images must follow formatting guidelines (.jpg, .jpeg, .png, .webp) and cannot exceed 2MB per upload.
