A drafted website fix is not a live fix

When someone says “the website work is done,” ask what done means. A suggested change, a delivered file, and a live update are not the same thing.

Logres keeps four stages separate:

• Proposed: A supported change has been drafted for your review.
• Delivered: Your team or partner has received the approved files and instructions.
• Published: The change has been added to the live website.
• Checked: A later reading of the website confirms that the change is present.

Each stage can fail on its own

A useful proposal can sit in an inbox. A delivered file can be published only in part. A live change can disappear during the next site update.

If a provider calls the work complete at delivery, you know only that a file was sent. You do not yet know whether a buyer—or an assistant—can see the change on the website.

What the website check does

Logres reads the live page again and compares it with the approved changes. If the relevant content or markup is present, the website fix can be called checked.

This confirms what appeared in that website reading. It does not claim that every visitor or crawler saw the same version at the same moment.

A live fix does not prove impact

Website confirmation answers one question: Did the approved change go live?

A later AI-answer check answers a different question: What did assistants say afterward? If the answer changes, Logres reports the difference without claiming that the website fix caused it. AI assistants and outside sources can change for other reasons.

A useful question for any provider

Ask which stage each item has reached: proposed, delivered, published, or checked. A clear answer is more useful than a broad “complete” status.

Common questions

Does Logres publish changes to my website?

No. Logres prepares implementation-ready changes. Your team, agency, or developer decides what to publish.

How do I know a change went live?

Logres performs a later reading of the target page and checks for the approved change. A verbal update from a team member is useful, but it is not the same as checking the live page.

When should we check AI answers again?

The website can be checked soon after publication. AI assistants refresh on their own schedules, so answer checks usually happen later. Any difference is reported without promising a cause or future result.
