Creator websites
Every artist and gallery can publish a personal microsite on Provenance — no separate hosting required.
Getting started
- Go to Website Editor (
/profile/site) from the Toolbox menu. - Choose a handle (e.g.
jane-doe→jane-doe.provenance.guru). - Pick a template (Editorial, Folio, and others).
- Customize content blocks, colors, and featured works.
- Click Publish.
Live URL
Published sites are available at:
https://{handle}.provenance.guru
Provenance middleware automatically routes subdomain requests to your site.
Site pages
Each creator site includes:
| Page | URL |
|---|---|
| Home | / |
| Works | /works/[artworkId] |
| Exhibitions | /exhibitions/[id] |
| Contact | /contact |
Custom domains
Connect your own domain (e.g. janedoe.art) from the website editor:
- Enter your domain in the custom domain settings.
- Add the DNS records Provenance provides.
- Complete checkout for domain verification (Stripe).
- Once verified, your site serves on your custom domain.
Preview mode
Preview your site before publishing at /profile/site/preview. Preview renders full-screen without the main navigation.
Templates
Templates live in src/app/_sites/_templates/. Each template defines layout, typography, and how artworks and exhibitions are displayed. Switch templates anytime from the editor — republish to apply changes.
