# **🔍 Overview**

Some customers find that after asking the Website Studio AI assistant to make changes — such as removing a dark overlay, updating text, or adding an image — the assistant confirms the edit is done, but the website does not reflect the change. This article explains why this happens and how to get your changes to apply correctly.

# **⚠️ Why This Happens**

The Website Studio AI assistant processes your requests in real time, but there are known scenarios where confirmed changes may not persist. The AI assistant may confirm a change — such as removing a dark overlay — without that change being reliably written to the page.

# **✅ How to Apply Changes Reliably**

1. **Send one instruction at a time.** Break complex edits into separate, focused prompts. For example, first ask to remove the dark overlay and confirm it is applied before moving on to the next change.
2. **Verify each change visually before continuing.** After the AI confirms an edit, check the canvas directly. Do not rely solely on the assistant's confirmation message.
3. **Refresh the editor if changes are not visible.** If the canvas does not update after a confirmed edit, save your work, refresh the page, and reopen the project in Website Studio.

# **🎨 Removing a Dark Overlay Specifically**

Dark overlays are a common styling element applied to hero sections and background images. If you have asked the AI to remove an overlay and it is still visible, try the following:

- Ask the AI explicitly: **"Remove the dark background overlay from the hero section. Do not make any other changes."**
- After the AI confirms, scroll to the section on the canvas and check whether the overlay is gone.
- If it is still present, refresh the editor and repeat the single focused prompt.

# **📞 Still Need Help?**

If the overlay or other AI-confirmed changes are still not persisting after following the steps above, please escalate to our support team. Have the following ready: your project name, the exact prompt you sent to the AI assistant, and a description of what the canvas shows after the AI confirms the change.
