Melanie AI Promptinator guide

Welcome to the Melanie AI Promptinator guide—your one-page how-to on turning prompt text into a live form. No heavy JavaScript frameworks, just simple “shortcodes” that map to form controls. Here’s everything you need to know, in the order you’ll typically use them:

---

Business Fields (fully dynamic)

These pull directly from your business profile—no options to configure:

• [name]

• [slogan]

• [description]

• [address]

• [city]

• [state]

• [zip]

• [phone]

• [website]

• [email]

Business Checkboxes (dynamic)

Automatically list your tags for services or areas:

• [C-service-] → your service tags

• [C-location-] → your location tags
