# Prompting basics

Impossible responds to natural language. The more specific you are, the better the results.

## What you can ask for

* **Page content** — Add sections, change text, create new pages
* **Design** — Colors, spacing, typography, layout
* **WooCommerce** — Products, orders, coupons, shipping, tax (when WooCommerce is active)
* **Elementor** — Edit headings, buttons, sections on Elementor-built pages
* **Plugins** — Install, activate, configure plugins (with your approval)

## Be specific

| Vague              | Specific                                                                                                                                                          |
| ------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Add a hero section | Add a hero section with headline "Welcome to Our Site," subtitle "We build beautiful websites," and a blue CTA button that says "Get Started" linking to /contact |

The specific prompt gives the agent clear direction: headline text, subtitle, button label, color, and link.

## Common patterns

| Goal        | Vague               | Specific                                                                                       |
| ----------- | ------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Hero        | Add a hero          | Add a hero with headline "X," subtitle "Y," and CTA "Z" linking to /page                       |
| Features    | Add feature cards   | Add three feature cards: Fast (icon: lightning), Secure (icon: shield), Reliable (icon: check) |
| New page    | Create a page       | Create a "Services" page with hero, three service cards, and a CTA section                     |
| Text change | Change the heading  | Change the main heading to "We Build Great Websites"                                           |
| Style       | Make it look better | Increase spacing between sections to 64px and use the site's accent color for the CTA button   |

## Reference the preview

The agent sees the page you have selected in the preview. You can refer to it naturally:

* "Change the hero heading"
* "Add a section below the features"
* "Make the CTA button larger"
* "Update the second paragraph"

## One task at a time

For best results, focus on one change per prompt. If you want multiple changes, you can send follow-up prompts:

1. "Add a hero section with headline X"
2. "Add three feature cards below the hero"
3. "Add a CTA section at the bottom"

<Tip>
  You can still ask for related changes in one prompt (e.g. "Add a hero and three feature cards"). For very large requests, breaking them up often yields better results.
</Tip>

## Use attachments for images

If you want specific images on your site:

1. Click the image upload button in the chat panel (or paste with Ctrl/Cmd+V)
2. Add the image to your message
3. Describe where it should go: "Use this image as the hero background" or "Add this image to the About section"

The agent will use your attached images instead of placeholders when possible.
