Dashboard
Components > Header Footer Builder > Dashboard shows how many headers and footers are published, a setup progress tracker (system plugin ready, first item created, SP Page Builder ready, shown on site) and a summary of the Health Check.
Health Check
Components > Header Footer Builder > Health Check lists each check with a status (OK, Warning or Error) and a detail line:
- System plugin present: the System - JHFB plugin is installed and enabled.
- Helix framework active and SP Page Builder present.
- Layout positions detected: the module positions found in your Helix layout.
- Theme Takeover: whether it is on for the header and footer, or the kill switch is on.
- Design pages: published items that have no design yet, or whose SP Page Builder page was deleted or unpublished.
- Published header module and footer module: reported OK when Theme Takeover places them.
- Recent errors: the last lines of the extension's log, including a notice when Theme Takeover could not find the theme's header or footer.
- Pro license (when Pro is installed): whether Pro features are on, and why not if they are off.
